To choose the right trailer for logging, you need to consider several factors: Size and load capacity of the forest trailer. They should match the size and weight of your cargo, as well as the power of your tractor. A too large or heavy trailer can reduce the passability and increase the fuel consumption. A too small or light trailer can be inefficient and inconvenient for loading and unloading. The standard length of a side trailer for logging ranges from 2.5 meters to 12 meters, and the load capacity – from 5 to 20 tons. Type of drive of the trailer. It determines how the torque is transmitted to the wheels of the trailer from the tractor. There are mechanical and hydraulic drives, as well as trailers without drive. Full-drive trailers have better off-road performance and stability in swampy and sticky soil, but they are more expensive and complex in maintenance. Trailers without drive are cheaper and simpler, but they can hinder the movement of the tractor on swampy terrain, on complex terrain. Mechanical drive (Robson roller) transmits torque through the drive wheel on the balancer of the trailer, hydraulic – through the pump and hydraulic motors on two or each wheel. Presence of a turning device. It allows the trailer to turn relative to the tractor, increasing maneuverability both when moving forward and backward. This is especially important for working in the forest, where narrow and winding paths are often encountered. The turning device can be implemented through a hinge connection or through a special mechanism. Presence of a forest crane with a grip. It allows you to quickly and easily unload logs. This saves time and effort when unloading logs and other materials.
