It is equipped with the AGCO Power 74 LFTN engine tuned to 258 hp (190 kW), offering 28 horsepower more than the 6F GT model. This increase is crucial: it allows the machine to maintain constant speed even with a full 15-ton load, conquering slopes where others stall. The 1130 Nm torque ensures an immediate and forceful response in any situation.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>Extendable Load Bay : <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Versatility is its stronghold. The length of the load bay is adjustable from 4.25 m to 5.6 m, with a cross-sectional area that can expand up to 5.85 m\u00b2. This allows for easily transporting two stacks of 3-meter logs or long Eucalyptus and Pine stems, adapting to sawmill and paper mill requirements without needing to switch machines.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>Transmission and Crane: <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">The tractive force remains at an impressive 196 kN, managed by a 2-speed hydrostatic-mechanical transmission. For loading, it relies on the Mesera 92 F crane with 130 kNm of lifting torque, a fast and precise tool that reduces cycle time at every stop.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><u>Fleet Compatibility<br \/><\/u><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Designed to keep pace with high-production harvesters.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><b>Recommended Base Machine<\/b>: Works perfectly with the Logset 8H GTE Hybrid or 12H GTE Hybrid, ensuring that processed timber does not accumulate in the forest.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><b>Geographic Versatility: <\/b>Its power and load capacity make it ideal for large-scale operations in high-yield regions (like Galicia or the Basque Country), where the volume of timber extracted per hectare is high and transport efficiency is key.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\"><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>Custom Adaptation: Do you need a specific configuration? <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\">Contact us for personalized advice.<br \/>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br \/><\/span><font face=\"Poppins, Arial\"><span style=\"font-size: 13.3333px\"><b>FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)<\/b><\/span><\/font><b style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\"><font face=\"Poppins, Arial\"><span style=\"font-size: 13.3333px\"><b><br \/><\/b><\/span><\/font><span style=\"font-family: Poppins;font-size: 12px;font-weight: bold\">1. What do I gain with the 8F GT compared to the 6F GT?<\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\">You gain an extra ton of legal load capacity (15t vs 14t) and, most importantly, more power (258 hp vs 230 hp). This translates into faster cycles, especially on uphill climbs or soft terrain where the extra power prevents the machine from losing speed.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>2. Is it too big for narrow paths?<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\"> It has a similar width to other forwarders in its class with 710 tires. However, its load bay length, extendable up to 5.6 meters, makes it a longer machine, requiring a slightly larger turning radius at the headlands.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>3. How does it perform regarding fuel consumption? <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\">Thanks to the TOC 2 control system, the AGCO engine adjusts its performance to real demand. Although it is more powerful, its thermodynamic efficiency is excellent, maintaining a very competitive cost per transported ton.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>4. Can it fit tracks on all axles?<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\"> Yes, its robust bogies and 26.5&#8243; tires are designed to mount tracks, which is highly recommended to fully utilize its 196 kN of traction on wet northern soils.<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt;font-weight: bold\"><br \/>5. Is the crane sufficient for large timber? <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 10pt\">Absolutely. The Mesera 92 F with 130 kNm is a top-class crane, capable of lifting large-diameter logs at mid-range without issues, facilitating the quick loading of heavy timber.<\/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\">15-ton capacity: large-scale productivity<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">The Logset 8F GT is the forwarder designed for contractors who cannot afford downtime. With a 15-ton load capacity and a boosted 258 hp engine, this machine offers a quantitative leap in productivity compared to the mid-range. It is the ideal choice for long forwarding distances and demanding terrain, capable of moving massive volumes of timber in fewer trips, thereby maximizing daily profitability.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3870,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_joinchat":[]},"product_brand":[564],"product_cat":[57],"product_tag":[],"translation_priority":[],"class_list":["post-3873","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-logset-en","product_cat-machine","pa_marca-logset","pa_tipo-forwarder","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3873","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3870"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3873"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3873"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3873"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3873"},{"taxonomy":"translation_priority","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/translation_priority?post=3873"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
