Kranman 650 forwarder

Kranman 650 – The next generation of class-leading mini forwarders is here After 12 years of production and over 800 forwarders delivered, it is time for the next generation of Kranman forwarders. Based on our customers’ wishes, we have further developed this competent forwarder to become even better. The Kranman 650 replaces the Bison 6000X. It is available in three different versions: Basic, Comfort and Pro. The petrol engine is Honda’s well-proven GX630. It is a two-cylinder engine with 21 hp. The exhaust system is integrated under the hood, which makes it well protected. The machine has stepless drive via hydrostat. The driving force has increased by a whopping 30%. This is due to the new powertrain that has a lower gear ratio and powerful hydrostats. The chassis is completely newly developed and is both torsionally stiffer and more powerful. The rear carriage is longer and the bogie has been moved backwards to allow for longer timber length. The load-bearing structure in the rear is made of the high-strength steel Domex 650, which means that the load capacity has been increased to 2200 kg. To reduce vibrations in the operator environment, the newly developed open cab is rubber-suspended. The chassis design allows the Kranman 650 to have a flat cab floor. This makes it easy to walk into the driver’s seat and there is plenty of room for your legs. Storage space is one thing that has been prioritized in the development work. In the open cab, we have placed a compartment under the seat, a compartment in the dashboard with USB sockets, compartments on both screens, compartments for mobile phones and cup holders. On the outside, we have placed large compartments on both sides of the motor for storing tools, for example. On the Pro and Pro+, there are chainsaw holders on the hood. To further increase serviceability, we have placed service hatches at all important service points. There are hatches under the engine, under the front axle, on the front side, in the cab floor and on the top of the rear car. The Kranman 650 has very good lighting. The Pro also has cross-lighting through lamps that are protected in the shades. This increases the light pattern and reduces shadow formation. The hydrostatic drivetrain causes the machine to stop and stand still when you release the drive pedal. When loading or parking on an incline, however, you need a brake to stand completely still. Therefore, the Kranman 650 is equipped with a hydraulic handbrake that is automatically activated when the machine is put in neutral. The Pro is also equipped with outrigger warning with automatic braking. Fuel consumption is 2.7 litres per hour, which gives just over 9 driving hours with the new larger tank of 24 litres. In the Basic version, the Kranman 650 is delivered with our well-proven crane K30-50. In the Comfort version is the newly developed KX30 crane. On the Pro is the professional crane M36.
