Log Loaders

DEVELON designs log loaders for durability in the most challenging work environments. The upper structure features a reinforced mainframe, integral catwalks and heavy-duty side doors. The cab has a 4 ft. riser and for transporting, hydraulic tilt. Guarding on the upper structure protects key components and access points, including hydraulic and cooling system access doors, the cab, hydraulic cylinders and undercarriage. DEVELON also offers an optional side-entry forestry cab that is certified for Oregon OSHA and British Columbia WCB standards.

DEVELON log loaders offer extended maintenance intervals and easy access to service points, which increases machine uptime and operator productivity. Maintenance features include:

-Centralized grease points
-Wide side-access doors
-Boom pivot bushings with 250-hour greasing intervals
-Large-capacity engine-air precleaner that removes more than 99 percent of airborne particles and extends filter cartridge service life

DEVELON log loaders also feature a high and wide undercarriage, which makes traversing over stumps easier. Tracks feature heavy-duty links with double grouser shoes and full-length track guiding guards. DEVELON also incorporates special clean-out brackets with the top rollers to reduce the risk of materials becoming lodged inside.

When you're comfortable, you’re productive. That’s why DEVELON log loaders feature an all-weather steel cab with a reclining suspension seat that adjusts to your height and weight. The seat also features adjustable head and arm rests. To reduce fatigue caused by engine noise, DEVELON also incorporated sound-suppression technology into the cab.

Like the seat, the joystick controls adjust to match your preference. The controls can move up and down for more ergonomic operation, which reduces operator fatigue. Operators can quickly change from ISO to BHL control patterns using the pattern change valve.

A multi-function color LCD display shows a variety of machine information, including operation history, flow rate control and filter/oil information. This display also receives video from the rear-facing camera or optional, side-mounted camera. You can also reduce operating costs by monitoring your DEVELON heavy equipment and maintenance schedules with DEVELON telematics.
