This Rottne F12S is a used forestry forwarder — sometimes referred to as a timber forwarder — a purpose-built machine designed to collect and haul cut timber from the harvesting site to a roadside landing or depot. Rottne is a Swedish manufacturer with a long-standing focus on forestry machinery, producing forwarders and harvesters for professional logging and forest management operations worldwide. This example was built in 2010, is currently located in Poland, and is offered at $40,410.
The machine comes equipped with a notable range of features and installed systems. Fire suppression is handled by a FOGMAKER system, a recognised suppression solution commonly fitted to forestry machines operating in high-risk environments. A vacuum pump is fitted, along with dedicated oil and fuel transfer pumps to support on-site fluid management. The cabin is configured with the Comfort Line system, which denotes an enhanced operator environment, and includes a telephone, radio, and sun roller blinds for driver comfort during long working days.
For ground mobility and terrain adaptability, the machine features BOOGIELIFT raise-and-lower axles, which allow the operator to lift the bogie axles when travelling on roads or in conditions where ground clearance management is beneficial. The rear bogie is of the swinging or articulated type, improving manoeuvrability and wheel tracking through uneven forest terrain. Visibility and working in low-light conditions are supported by xenon work lights.
It should be noted that the seller reports the tyres are in poor condition and that wheel replacement would be advisable before or shortly after purchase. Prospective buyers should factor tyre replacement into their assessment of the machine.
