It is almost always easy to use the correct grapple point of the load

The forwarder should be positioned as close as possible to the wood to be loaded for proper bundle grappling

After loading, the bundle must be free of stones or rocks

Load content in harvesting residues or branches is clearly defined.

Most of the times, harvesting residues or branches are due to bad working habits or lack of care by the harvester operator

Branch residues in wood piles increase forwarder productivity

Wood loaded on the forwarder must be away from the gate

The shortest 3-3,5 m long pulpwood logs must be “knocked” against and touch the gate

A way of leveling one end of the bundle is to “knock” it on the ground

You can save time and increase productivity by not paying much attention on whether the logs of the bottom layer are parallel

A well heaped load can weigh approximately two tons
