Wisent
Economical and forest-friendly
PONSSE Wisent treats thinning sites gently. Its agility and excellent visibility in all directions from the cabin reduce damage to standing trees. Being lightweight, it also causes less damage to the terrain. It still offers an excellent load-carrying capacity and power that never runs out. Wisent is a small-sized machine with large properties, and with low emissions and costs.
An economical professional at thinning sites
Thanks to its excellent weight distribution and geometry, PONSSE Wisent leaves minimal tracks in the terrain and makes driving easy, also on dense and curvy thinning trails. Its rear wheels closely follow its front wheels. With Wisent accurate, operators can easily avoid damage to trees. The best ergonomics in the market, the operators and the modern engines saves fuel.

Special features
The most spacious and comfortable cabin and the most ergonomic controls in the market guarantee the best working comfort. The PONSSE Opti information system is an advanced and easy-to-use interface for machine and work management.
The PONSSE C44+ parallel crane, with parallel action, uses hydraulics instead of mechanical leverage. This is why the crane is fuel-efficient and powerful and requires less maintenance. Ponsse designs and manufactures all of its crane models for high-quality and well-functioning crane-base machine combinations.
The large 190 m3 work pump offers the best hydraulic capacity in the size class and the mighty Mercedes-Benz/MTU engine ensures that power never runs out, while fuel economy remains high.
The design of the Beaver frame focuses particularly on durability and ease of maintenance. Beaver’s chassis structure is based on a short wheelbase and a free-floating portal axle. Combined, these result in an agile all-terrain solution for demanding thinning conditions.
PONSSE harvester heads are known for their high efficiency/weight ratios and robust structure, which are second to none.
A broad harvester head range is available for Beaver: choose the small and feisty H5 for thinning-based harvesting or the light and efficient H6 as an all-round grapple for larger logging sites.
With its six wheels, PONSSE Beaver is an agile harvester, and its stability is provided by its sturdy frame joint and swing axle, which can be locked steplessly during work using hydraulic cylinders.
