Bison 8000 is a versatile mini forwarder that is very easy to drive. The machine is hydrostatic, which means that it has a drive pedal which regulates the speed. Releasing the pedal, the machine stops and stands still until you press the pedal again. The direction forward or back is selected easily with a button on the side of the chair.
With a Bison 8000, you will do a very effective job. You can sit back and drive the machine on a working RPM, release the pedal, load the log and press the pedal and you’re off. This is without having to drop down the machine at low RPM, put it in neutral or pull the handbrake.
Bison 8000 is very smooth because the middle of the machine is located almost in between the front and rear wheels. This means that the rear of the machine runs almost on the same track as the front wheels.
Despite its narrow width of only 150 cm, the Bison 8000 is very stable. This is thanks to its low centre of gravity. Bison 8000 has the high and low gear (7 and 3.5 km/h). The low and high gears come in 6-wheel drive. Transport gear is optional at 14km/h.
