Siku 1380: Deutz Fahr Agrotron TTV Forestry Tractor, Super

We can thank the research department at Siku for finally giving us a forestry trailer in the Super series; and for what its worth, they've chosen Deutz to head it up. Released in 2014, this Deutz Agrotron forestry tractor is fixed with a grabber, rather than the common bucket attachment in the Super range. So no need for farming with this one, its use is for logging.

Deutz Fahr Agrotron TTV Forestry Tractor

Siku Super Deutz Fahr Agrotron tractor made for the use of forestry work; make no mistake, its still a tractor that can be used for farming, but we know its for forestry due to the loader with grabber.

Solid, die-cast tractor with plastic parts, soft rubberised wheels and exceptional exterior detail; exhaust pipe, steps, radiator detail, imitation front mount, functional rear tow hitch and Deutz insignia.

Front Loader

There's no difference between a front loader for farming to one that is used for forestry work; only the forestry loader has a grabber attachment as oppose to the usual bucket.

Connected near to the cab with use of a hinge, its possible to move the loader up/down well simultaneously using the bucket. They must keep the loader upright manually to prevent it dropping.

Grabber Attachment

Grabber, also known as a grapple, is the end part attached to the front loader. Here you'd expect the operator of the tractor to grab hold of tree trunks for loading onto an awaiting trailer.

Pivoting action to assist you in grabbing logs from multiple angles; before lifting it up off the ground to then manoeuvre around before dropping them off.

2 Tree Logs

Its amazing just how much value this simple set of two 'wooden effect' tree logs have on play. That's because they create tasks; such as lifting them up to be placed elsewhere.

Perfectly shaped to be able to slot nicely into the grabber attachment, fixed to the front loader on the tractor. The grabber does not open or close, they just have to squeeze the logs securely into place.
