A Timber forwarder is a vehicle that carries logs from the stump to a roadside landing. Unlike a skidder, a forwarder carries logs clear of the ground, which can reduce soil impacts but tends to limit the size of the logs it can move. Forwarders are typically employed together with harvesters in cut-to-length logging operations. These are mainly built by specialist convertors using a stamdard production tractor or a Skid unit as the basis, coupled by a flexible coupling to a trailer fitted with powered axles to give an all wheel drive vehicle. These units often have a Lorry loader crane mounted either on the trailer or on the tractor (unit), fitted with a log grab.
