This Ponsse Scorpion King is a used processor harvester — sometimes referred to as a harvester head carrier or simply a forest harvester — a purpose-built forestry machine designed to fell, delimb, and cut trees to length in a single pass. Ponsse is a Finnish manufacturer specialising in cut-to-length forestry machinery, including harvesters, forwarders, and their associated harvesting heads, serving professional logging and timber operations worldwide.
This 2019 example is offered in very good condition and is reported to have originated from Scandinavia, a region associated with demanding professional forestry use and rigorous machine maintenance standards. The machine has accumulated 11,200 hours of use, and a full service history is available, providing important transparency regarding its operational background.
The harvesting head fitted is the Ponsse H7, a mid-to-large capacity delimbing and bucking head suited to a wide range of stem sizes encountered in commercial timber harvesting. Running gear consists of Nokian F2 forestry tyres along with one set of tracks, giving the machine the option of running in track configuration for improved traction and reduced ground pressure in challenging terrain. The cabin is equipped with comfort joysticks, which the seller notes can be exchanged for standard joysticks if preferred by the buyer.
Notably, the cabin bearing and hydraulic pumps have already been replaced, representing significant maintenance items that prospective buyers would otherwise need to budget for. The machine is located in Lithuania and is listed at $160,000, with 21% VAT applicable.
