This MAN TGS 18.480 EU6 is a used timber truck — sometimes referred to as a log truck — a specialist heavy vehicle configured for the harvesting and forestry industry to transport felled timber from forest operations to processing sites. MAN is a long-established German commercial vehicle manufacturer producing trucks, buses, and heavy transport equipment for a wide range of industrial and logistics sectors, and this example represents the company's TGS heavy-duty truck range in Euro 6 emissions specification.
The truck is built on a 4×4H all-wheel-drive configuration with hydrodrive on the front axle, making it capable of operating in demanding off-road and forest terrain. Transmission is a manual Comfortshift gearbox. The suspension is a mixed arrangement with leaf springs at the front and air suspension at the rear, and braking is by disc brakes with ABS, EBS, and ASR systems fitted. The wheelbase measures 4.8 metres, and the platform body has been refitted with a new deck surface, measuring 5.2 metres in length and 2.55 metres in width. Eight Exte aluminium stanchions are fitted to secure loads. Front tyres are 385/65 R22.5 and rears are 315/80 R22.5, with tread depth estimated at approximately 60%. The truck's kerb weight is 11,100 kg, gross vehicle weight is 21,000 kg, and the useful payload is 9,900 kg.
The vehicle is equipped with a Penz 12Z7.90 loader crane, with rated lifting capacities of 2,925 kg at 4 metres, 1,950 kg at 6 metres, and 1,626 kg at 7 metres, enabling self-loading and unloading of timber without external equipment.
The cab is well-appointed with automatic climate control, an adjustable steering column, a standby heater, central locking, differential lock, cruise control, satellite navigation, electric windows and mirrors, heated mirrors, heated seats, a fridge, a sun visor, a radio, and two sleeping berths.
