    Awesome video Tim and the tigercat H855E is very nice. And the Appalachian Mountain area of Virginia where I live we see mostly John Deere Timberjack Barko and other logging equipment brands. But I have noticed some of the logging companies around in here are running tigercat equipment now.

  • @timberslasher4899
    @timberslasher4899 2 года назад +2

    Only Tigercats around here are mostly knuckleboom on trailers and the only trouble I have heard them having multiple times is turntable bearing trouble. Which people say that about Deere too with the turntable but my 437e is up to 6000 hours and doesn't have an ounce of play. A grease gun cures a lot of problems...lol.

      @GreatLakesLogger 2 года назад

      Yeah waratahs are definitely heavy. When you're used to a lightweight, tough, snappy head, the heavy clumsy waratahs are a real pain in the keester. I know people seem to make money with them, but for the money and how much they weigh, they are definitely underperformers.

    It's cool that you are getting new equipment but with fuel costs isn't it a bit risky especially when from my understanding loggers are not getting paid more to help offset this and other expenses?

    • @cotontop3
      @cotontop3  2 года назад

      You gotta think that fuel did make the jump like it did until March and then also think that this machine was ordered long ago too. No one can figure what the future might be with the economy and that is why being in business is a risk with every move you make.

    Too bad your dealer is bad. Does John Deere know this and don’t care? We wouldn’t be able to go TigerCat up here because of no dealer. Our John Deere dealer is pretty good. I put a waratah 623 on a 2454 log loader. Love the combination of reach and visibility. Have the 6’ cab riser as well. Good luck with your new machine.

    That Deere processor was such an excellent machine and held up. It will definitely set the bar high for the Tigercat. That being said the Tigercat could still turn out to be an excellent machine and still not last as well as the Deere. Gonna be interesting to see none the less.

    Ran one a couple yrs back with a quick change 600 Southstar processor head & Southside felling head. 1000 hrs blew main seal between pump & engine. A problem was the Boss had me switch to a different grease in the auto greaser, viscosity is a issue. We found out they need to be recalibrated for viscosity. She's a monster power wise, they have two different settings for oil flow to the lift & stick cylinders. In the falling setting, just a light feather touch brings the boom up instantly, scare the pudding out of a person. Had to remember to turn it off when processing. Awesome iron👍.

My dealer is pushing for the Tigercat 575 head to go with the 855. They have a few loggers running the 575 on 250 loaders.
