HSM 208F 12 t Forwarder
Takes two piles of 3 m timber on its optional 5,050 mm load area, with a 185 kW six-cylinder Volvo Penta engine (210 kW optional), a 12 t payload and a 2,600 mm overall width on standard tyres.
Narrow machine, wide tyres
Every 208F stays within 3,000 mm overall width while running on wide tyres, the HSM principle for load capacity and ground protection. The BigFoot runs on 940 mm wide Firestone 54 × 37-25 tyres, which are also an option on the 10 t to 12 t.
