Large description

Engineering and Design: Durability and Cost-Effectiveness in a Compact Format
Built entirely from high-strength Hardox® steel, the Woodcracker CL140 offers exceptional resistance to wear and heavy impact in tough forestry environments. Its robust structure features oversized, fully protected hydraulic lines to prevent downtime, enhanced by a cathodic dip coating (KTL) and powder-coated finish. Designed with a Plug-and-Play philosophy, it optimizes the mounting angle for clean, hassle-free attachment to a wide range of carrier vehicles.
Feeding and Performance: Agile and High-Speed Cutting
Equipped with a powerful cutting mechanism, the CL140 easily handles soft wood up to 180 mm in diameter and hard wood up to 150 mm. Its hydraulic system requires a low oil flow of just 20 to 60 l/min at a recommended operating pressure of 200 bar. To boost productivity, the optional Autospeed feature speeds up the gripper closing mechanism during soft wood processing, significantly reducing cycle times and fuel consumption.
Cut Quality and Operational Versatility
The cutting unit features a heavy-duty, interchangeable blade that is immune to dirt and easy to sharpen, providing clean cuts without damaging the remaining stump or trunk structure. Its lightweight build makes it the ultimate attachment for farm operations, riverbank clearing, short-rotation coppice harvesting, and thinning operations in marshlands or steep terrains.
Fleet Compatibility
The Woodcracker CL140 is fully compatible with a versatile range of compact carrier vehicles:
  • Mini-excavators and compact excavators (operating weight 1 to 4 t).
  • Telehandlers, front loaders, and wheel loaders.
Hydraulic Requirements:
  • Recommended oil flow (main circuit): 20 – 60 l/min
  • Operating pressure: 200 bar
