Step feeder

The step feeder is an important machine for those who work with thinning and harvesting in the forest. With our step feeders, even small forest owners have access to high-quality machines that are both easy to handle and maintain. The step feeder can be mounted directly on a tractor and only requires a certain oil flow to function optimally, making it flexible and useful in different locations. The simple design means that even smaller machines can benefit from the step feeder's efficiency, which facilitates work for both large and small forestry operations.

Step feeders for safe and precise forestry work

Robust step feeders that effectively increase the capacity of your wood handling and reduce the number of heavy lifts when feeding logs. Using a crane or pallet forks, you can easily load the logs directly onto the step feeder. The logs are then lifted step by step towards your wood processor, and the feed can be easily controlled with the joystick. Step feeders are used to cut logs with high precision and efficiency, optimizing the workflow.

The step feeder has a simple and durable design with only two hydraulic cylinders. It can also be combined with our drive roller for increased functionality. The loading section of the step feeder can be folded over for storage, which facilitates handling and saves space.

Maximize profitability with a step feeder

Profitability is a crucial factor in forestry work and can be optimized by using the right equipment and technology. It is essential to choose the right step feeder to achieve the best possible results and profitability. The step feeder contributes to this by increasing efficiency while reducing costs. Having good information about both forestry work and the equipment used is important for improving both profitability and workflow. In Sweden, with its extensive forestry industry, there are great opportunities to maximize profitability by choosing and using the right technology and equipment.

Forestry techniques for felling

Forestry technology has evolved over time, and today there are many different methods and types of equipment to choose from. The step feeder is an important part of this technology and is used for various types of forestry work. Tractors and hydraulics are also key components that are often combined with the step feeder to optimize the work process. When choosing equipment, it is important to consider factors such as oil flow and hydraulics to ensure that the machines work efficiently and reliably.

Our various step counters

We sell two types of step feeders in two different widths, 2 meters and 2.5 meters. Both have a simple but robust design with only two cylinders in the hydraulic system. They can, of course, be easily combined with our drive roller.

Easy operation of equipment

The operation of the equipment is crucial to ensuring efficient and safe forestry work techniques. The step feeder must be handled with both care and simplicity to avoid damage and accidents. The same applies to tractors and hydraulics, which also require careful and correct handling for the work process to function optimally. Regular maintenance and repair are necessary to keep the equipment working efficiently and safely. By taking care of this, you can ensure that both the step feeder and its associated machines maintain high performance and longevity.

Safety aspects

Safety is a very important aspect of forestry work, and the step feeder must always be handled with care to avoid accidents. With the right equipment and technique, it is possible to perform simple and quick cutting, which streamlines the work. In addition, the location where forestry work is performed is crucial to ensuring a safe and efficient workplace.

Maintenance and repair

Regular maintenance and repair are essential to ensure that the step feeder maintains its high performance and long service life. It is important to check the hydraulic system, ensure the correct oil flow, and inspect wear parts at regular intervals. By collecting data from use, you can quickly detect any deviations and prevent major damage. More information about maintenance and repair is always available from the manufacturer or authorized service centers, making it easy to keep the step feeder in top condition.

Service and support

We offer comprehensive service and support for your step counters. You will have access to training, clear instructions, and technical support to ensure that your machine always works as it should. If necessary, you can contact a service center for help with troubleshooting or to schedule a maintenance visit. To ensure that the warranty remains valid and that the work is performed correctly, only authorized service centers should be used for service and repairs.

Training and instructions

To use the step feeder safely and effectively, it is important to undergo training and follow the instructions carefully. Always read the manual and participate in training sessions to learn how to operate and maintain the machine. Cutting and thinning trees requires both knowledge and precision to avoid damage to both the machine and the forest. By following the instructions and using the right technique, you can do the job quickly, safely, and with the best possible results.

Environmental impact

Like all machinery used in forestry, the step feeder has a certain environmental impact. It is therefore important to follow applicable safety regulations and environmental guidelines to minimize the impact on nature. In Sweden, there are clear rules and laws governing how machines such as the step feeder may be used in forestry. By choosing the right machine and using it responsibly, you can contribute to sustainable forestry.
