Track Log Loaders For Sale

About Track Log Loaders

Logging and tree care operations depend on track log loaders, also sometimes called “road builders,” to load and unload trucks during logging and, in some cases, to fetch logs from hard-to-reach areas and carry them to a landing area for processing and/or transport.

Like other log loader varieties, track log loaders use a hydraulic boom and grapple to pick up and move timber. Track loaders vary in size and lifting capacity and can be outfitted with grapples designed either for lifting one log at a time or for lifting and carrying multiple logs.

Track Log Loaders vs. Other Log Loaders

Versatile machines known for their ability to navigate steep inclines and rugged or shifting terrain, track log loaders provide steady performance where other log loaders may struggle. Here are some of the areas in which track log loaders excel:

• Although wheel log loaders have higher speed and maneuverability, track log loaders offer greater traction while causing less ground damage.
• Track log loaders are more mobile on worksites than truck-mounted log loaders and are well-suited to logging operations near roadways and on diverse terrain such as slopes and soft ground.
• While trailer log loaders are typically capable of transporting large loads of logs, track log loaders are better equipped to handle inclines and rough terrain.
• Compared to stationary log loaders that offer higher lifting capacity for heavier loaders, track models can reposition themselves and offer more versatility in terms of operational locations and tasks.

Track Log Loader Benefits

Track log loaders offer numerous benefits for tree care operations:

• Better stability and traction compared to log loaders with wheels
• Less soil compaction and turf damage because tracks have lower ground pressure, allowing operation in areas with more delicate conditions
• Cab comfort and safety features such as advanced controls, climate control, air suspension seats, and noise reduction
• Higher lifting capacity increases operational productivity
• Compatible with attachments, including grapples, forks, buckets, thumbs, and more, making them highly versatile
