Its intermittent disc design enables functions that other heads cannot perform, such as shovel logging or manipulating large limbs individually. A key engineering highlight is the optional safety gripper arms\u2014a critical feature for projects involving power lines, ensuring the tree is held firmly throughout the process. Available with 40\u00b0 or high-torque 360\u00b0 rotation to suit terrain maneuverability needs.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\">Cutting Power &amp; Performance<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">This head doesn&#8217;t just fell; it dominates the tree. Equipped with a 12-tooth disc and a 41 mm kerf, it delivers a clean, powerful cut driven by two F12-30 motors. Its nominal saw speed reaches 760 rpm, ensuring efficiency in every cycle. The lifting capacity and hydraulic design are optimized to work with pressures of 248-276 bar, providing the necessary force to handle hardwoods typical of northern forestry.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\">Versatility in the Forest:<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">&#8220;Hold and Cut&#8221; Unlike standard processors, the 2400 shines in controlled felling. Its &#8220;hold and cut&#8221; system makes it ideal for clearing blowdown areas (windthrow) and maintaining utility lines. Its operating weight, ranging between 2,812 kg and 2,994 kg (depending on rotation), gives it the necessary stability to handle full stems without compromising the base machine&#8217;s balance.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><u>Fleet Compatibility<br \/><\/u><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">This head is designed for large excavators and fellers.

What type of jobs is the Quadco 2400 ideal for?<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"> It is excellent for Right-of-Way cleaning (power lines, roads) and managing windthrow\/blowdown areas, thanks to its ability to hold the tree before and after the cut.&nbsp;<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\">&nbsp;<br \/>2. Can it work safely near power lines?<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"> Yes, it features optional locking gripper arms designed specifically to increase safety in projects involving electrical cables.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>3. What does &#8220;intermittent&#8221; model mean?<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"> It means the disc does not spin constantly. This allows the head to be used for other functions like shovel logging, manipulating large branches, or topping trees without the risk of accidental cuts.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>4. What machine do I need to mount this head?<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"> You need an excavator or forestry machine with an operating weight of at least 22 tons to safely handle the head&#8217;s weight and inertia.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>5. What maintenance do the teeth require?<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"> The disc features 12 rotatable teeth. Being a robust disc system, maintenance is lower compared to chain systems when working in dirty or abrasive wood conditions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\">Versatility and safety for complex logging operations<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">The Quadco 2400 is an intermittent disc feller head designed to deliver maximum versatility and safety in complex forest operations.
