This 2017 Volvo FH 650+ Doll M is a used timber truck — sometimes called a logging truck — designed for the transport of raw timber and harvested logs from forest sites to processing facilities. Volvo is one of the world's leading manufacturers of heavy commercial vehicles, producing trucks, buses, and specialist working vehicles for industries including forestry, construction, and long-haul haulage. This machine is located in Belgium and presents as a well-specified, operational combination unit with a detailed configuration documented by the seller.
The truck is registered from 4 July 2017 and has covered 503,410 kilometres. It is powered by a Euro-6 compliant engine paired with an automatic gearbox incorporating a retarder, which assists with controlled braking on descents — a particularly valuable feature in forestry terrain. The drivetrain configuration is 6x4, meaning six wheels in total with drive to two rear axles, providing the tractive effort needed for heavy timber loads on demanding ground.
Suspension throughout is by leaf spring on all three axles, a robust and proven arrangement well suited to the high static and dynamic loads associated with timber transport. The three axle loads are rated at 10,000 kg, 13,000 kg, and 13,000 kg respectively, giving a combined axle capacity consistent with the stated maximum technical weight of 36,000 kg. Empty weight is recorded at 17,740 kg. Wheelbase between axles one and two is 4,620 mm, and between axles two and three is 1,380 mm.
Tyres are specified across three sizes: 385/65R22.5 on the steer axle (5/5 tread remaining), and 315/80R22.5 on both drive axles (15/15 tread remaining on each), fitted with wide-rim super-single configuration. Braking is by disc brakes on both front and rear axles, with ABS and EBS providing electronic brake management and stability.
The cab is a sleeper configuration equipped with one bunk, air conditioning, central locking, GPS navigation, a radio, and a parking heater — reflecting the long-distance and overnight operational profile typical of timber haulage. Additional cab and chassis features include a sunvisor, a rotating warning light, extra lamps, a trailer coupling, and a PTO (power take-off) for driving auxiliary equipment. A differential locker is fitted to improve traction in slippery or soft conditions.
The combination includes a Palfinger Epsilon SRX47 loader crane, mounted for loading and unloading timber without external equipment, and a Doll M3K-10 three-axle 36-tonne trailer dating from 2019. The seller states that the engine and gearbox are in good working order and that the truck is fully mobile and driveable.
