Tigercat feller bunchers – the Canadian specialist from Brantford since 1992: wheeled machines 718 to 726, tracked machines 822 to 870, L for levelling, LX for the slope version, 129 to 224 kW
Tigercat of Brantford, Ontario, is the youngest of the big forestry-machine makers: founded in 1992 with the 726 feller buncher as its first product, and today, alongside John Deere, the most important supplier for North American clear-cut logging. The feller buncher fells trees with a shear or saw head, holds them in a bunch and lays them down for skidding – the machine that begins the harvest in the pine plantations of the American South and the conifer forests of Canada. The type logic: the 700 models (718E, 720E, 724E, 726E) are articulated wheeled machines for flat ground, the 800s (822C, 845C, 860C, 870C) tracked machines on excavator undercarriages; L marks the version with levelling of the upper structure for slopes, LX the reinforced slope version for steep terrain; C and E are generations.

The register lists 14 versions with 129 to 223.7 kW – Cummins QSB6.7 in the wheeled machines, QSL9 in the tracked ones, Mercedes 906 in individual types – at rated speeds of 1,800 to 2,300 rpm, lengths from 4,447 to 6,072 mm and widths from 2,542 to 3,435 mm.
Tigercat's hallmarks are the hydrostatic drive of the wheeled machines with stepless reversing, two-way cooling for continuous duty in heat and saw heads with accumulating arms that hold several stems in the head; the company remained family-owned and grows against the trend of corporate consolidation.
On used machines, operating hours, the condition of felling head, saw and accumulating arms, slew ring and levelling on L models, undercarriage or tyres and leak-free hydraulics, which stand under constant load in forestry work, are what count.
