Clearing deer rides

Been busy getting some deer rides cleared for this season's stalking. We've cut back a load of coppice to increase sight lines and encourage new growth. The new albutt land clearance grab is perfect for picking up brash without soil.

New moccasin flotation tracks for Alstor range



Alstor Launch the new moccasin tracks for the Alstor 821 and Alstor 833. Designed from a plastic polymer with steel links, the tracks are designed to give flotation in boggy and very wet areas. The tracks come as a set of 4 and require wheel spacers on the front boggies.

For more info please contact www.homeforestry.co.uk

Alstor 833


The New Alstor 833 will be at the APF 2016 on our Home Forestry stand 840-880 on the demo circuit from the 15th to 17th of September. We will have live demonstrations of the Alstor 821 and 833, showing the terrain capabilities to customers. The New Alstor 833 is based on the 2nd generation Alstor with a new Cab, which meets ROPS, FOPS and OPS protection. mounted on hydraulic dampers, the cab is suspended and offers the operator a smother ride with less vibration. Noise is also reduced along with more hp from the CAT 3 cylinder 20.5hp engine. The windows on the new cab are larger, offering greater vision along with more room for the operator.
Both the Alstor 821 and 833 can now be fitted with the Farma G2 4.2m extension crane and the slew base upgrade. This vastly improves lifting and slewing performance, speeding up cycle times from forest to roadside.
