2013 John Deere 843K Feller buncher at Forestry First 05-02-13
This 2013 model Deere 843K is working in Pine Plantation . We filmed this cutter working on a second thinning job where the stems are 6 inches or so average , many less . This feller buncher is very impressive . The owner has been pleased with fuel consumption and the speed and power of this feller buncher is more than adequate in his thinning and logging operations . The operators are also making positive comments about the cab interior which has recently been much improved . The old steering column is gone and it opens everything up in terms of visibility and space for your legs . If you have not sat in one of these you should do yourself a favour and hop into one . www . deere . com
