Eco Log 688G - Strong, stable and gentle!
The Eco Log 688G is our powerful eight-wheeled harvester. It has been specifically designed to deliver maximum performance and traction with minimum ground impact – perfect for working on challenging and steep terrain as well as on sensitive soils.
The 688G is supplied with a number of updates that make the machine even stronger, smoother, and more stable. With its modern cab, versatility, and reliable engine, the Eco Log 688G is ready to take on the very toughest jobs with you – day after day.
WHAT´S NEW?
HIGH TRACTIVE FORCE
The power of the Eco Log 688G is something that has to be experienced. The transmission and powertrain have been developed to ensure maximum traction thanks to an all-new hydraulic transmission pump and an engine that delivers power with precision.
SMART OSCILLATION LOCK & IMPROVED TILT ANGLES
The oscillation lock on the 688G is now stronger and more stable than ever –
and it is also smarter. It is proportionally adjustable and adapts automatically
to both driving speed and the position of the crane. The crane base’s tilt angles have also been significantly improved, to ensure an even more favorable working position in rough terrain.
DRIVING MODES AND BOOST FUNCTION
You also get selectable driving modes – just like in your car. Choose between Comfort, Balanced, or Dynamic, depending on the situation and your driving style. There is also an additional Boost function for when you really need that extra bit of power to get around.
HIGH RELIABILITY
Eco Log harvesters are powered by Volvo Penta D8 engines, characterized by high performance, great
reliability, impressive fuel efficiency, and low emissions.
HIGH SERVICEABILITY
All Eco Log machines have been designed to be serviced quickly and easily. Thanks to an intuitive HMI, smart features, and easy troubleshooting, daily operations and maintenance are easier to anticipate and can be performed more rapidly and more efficiently than ever.
POWERFUL CRANE
Eco Log’s proprietary harvester crane is characterized
by its strength – and we have now made it even stronger with a new crane valve and an electrically controlled crane pump that adjusts the pressure levels itself. This allows the crane to work smoothly and efficiently
even at full crane length.
