The 610H cable skidder aims to be a simple, lower cost addition to Tigercat's H-series skidder line-up.

Tigercat debuted a new skidder model at the Paul Bunyan forestry equipment exposition in Cambridge, Ohio. The 610H cable skidder aims to be a simple, lower cost addition to Tigercat's H-series skidder line-up.

The Tigercat FPT N6.7 engine delivers 151 kW (202 hp) to the same hydrostatic driveline as the other H-series skidders. The machine is equipped with 620H sized axles for added durability.

The operator's cabin however, is simplified compared with the other H-series machines. Rather than Tigercat's signature Turnaround seat, the 610H is fitted with a fixed position seat angled at 30 degrees.

The heavy-duty winch provides maximum line pull at any engine speed. The winch can drop loads and drive away and reel in a load while driving using a wet-disk dynamic clutch. It also has very low free spool resistance which allows for easier cable extraction using a mechanical jaw clutch.
