Forestry Equipment

 Knuckleboom loaders are swing machines with specially designed booms for handling logs. They may be track based, wheel based, or trailer mounted. The trailer mounted version is not capable of moving around a landing by itself. Knuckleboom loaders are designed with fast hydraulics for quick swing and boom movement. 

 Fixed length log trailers are simply a semi-trailer with bunks instead of a box. They do not have a floor, but one or more beams to support the bunks along the length of the trailer.

 Transporting chips requires a trailer that can safely carry chips without losing material and being loaded and unloaded. Open top trailers are used where chips will be loaded either by a chipper or grinder with a conveyor capable of pushing the chips over the top of the trailer, or by a loader capable of dumping loads of chips over the top of the trailer. Rear loading trailers have a rear door that contains an opening for the chute of a chipper to blow chips in through the rear. Open top trailers must have a tarp to cover the load when it is full. 

 A lowboy trailer is commonly used to haul heavy equipment and machinery, such as excavators, bulldozers, and other large construction equipment. The lowboy trailer is perfect for hauling large equipment like this because they are usually tall and wide and would exceed standard legal height and weight restrictions.
