Mid-size 1110G, 1210G and
1510G models
The mid-size forwarders, including
the 1110G, 1210G and 1510G
models, are equipped with features
that boost machine power and
operator precision. The mid-size
models feature adaptive driveline
control, a first in the forestry
industry, which improves drivability
and productivity.
Using this software-based
control system, the operator can
select the desired RPM setting
(Eco, Normal, Power) for the
operating conditions, and the
system automatically adjusts
the engine’s RPMs to correspond
with the engine load. In high-
load situations, driveline control
ensures that the diesel engine runs
smoothly and uses the available
maximum tractive force efficiently.
Boasting 6.6% more power
and 4.1% more torque than the
previous model, the 1110G is
stable and agile, making it ideal
for thinning jobs. The machine is
available with a short wheelbase,
and the rear axle on the 1110G has
been moved forward, ensuring that
the load space is unchanged.
The 1210G features 7.6% more
power and 7.8% more torque
than its predecessor. Available
with optional Variable Load Space
(VLS), the load space can be easily
configured based on operator
need. With VLS, the width of the
load space is adjustable, allowing
for more flexible forwarding and
sorting.
The power and torque on the
1510G machine has been increased
by 5.1% and 8.7%, respectively,
boosting machine productivity.
With an increased slewing angle
(44°), the 1510G is more agile than
the previous model.
Both the 1210G and 1510G
models are available in a long
bogie version. The distance
between the front and rear wheel
hubs in rear bogie has been
increased, and the power train and
turning radius on the 1210G and
1510G models are the same as with
the standard HD portal bogie-
equipped machine. The long-bogie
versions deliver more ground
pressure for logging in soft terrain,
as well as better stability when
navigating over obstacles in rocky
conditions.
Large 1910G model
The 1910G is the largest forwarder
model in the line-up and offers
maximum power and performance.
The 1910G features 7.5% more
engine output and 21% more
torque that its predecessor.
Additionally, increase drive
hydraulics and 4.5% more tractive
force makes this machine ideal for
tough conditions.
The 1910G also offers a larger
load capacity. The cross-sectional
area of the wide load space is
bigger and the new-generation
headboard provides excellent
visibility to the load space.
Additionally, the productive
CF8 boom moves smoothly and
seamlessly, increasing accuracy
and efficiency.
John Deere telematics
Customers can get more out
of their forwarders by taking
advantage of the John Deere
ForestSight suite of technology
solutions, including JDLink, now
available five years in base. JDLink
enables fleet owners to monitor
their machines from miles away,
monitoring machine health,
tracking hours and identifying any
maintenance needs.
In partnership with a local
John Deere dealer, JDLink allows
the dealer service department to
easily diagnose machine issues
without traveling onsite, reducing
maintenance costs and downtime.
The mid-size forwarders, including the 1110G and 1510G, are equipped with features that boost machine power and operator precision
