This Valmet 546 is a used forestry forwarder — sometimes referred to as a timber forwarder — a purpose-built machine designed to collect and transport cut logs from the felling site to a roadside landing or loading area. Valmet is a well-established manufacturer with deep roots in the forestry equipment industry, producing rugged, purpose-engineered machines for demanding timber harvesting operations.
This 1994 machine is located in Ohio, USA, and is offered for $23,900. It comes equipped with a cab fitted with heat, and while air conditioning is installed, it is noted as not currently functional. Power is provided by a Ford diesel engine, and the unit has accumulated 20,997 hours of service. Despite the hours, the seller reports that the machine cranks readily and runs well.
The forwarder carries a Cranab 998 crane with a processing head, which extends the machine's capability beyond pure forwarding — allowing it to handle processing functions in addition to log transport. Walk-around and operational video footage is available on request, offering prospective buyers a closer look at the machine's current condition and performance.
