Compact 602 skidder prototype from Tigercat

Tigercat will debut a prototype model 602 skidder at Les Cognées, a unique forestry event to be held in the heart of the French Alps in Les Gets, France, June 24-25.

The 602 skidder design team is meeting the challenge to produce a small, compact, lightweight skidder platform that can be adapted to a number of niche applications. The prototype 602 model will be equipped with a Tigercat FPT Tier 4f N45 engine. It will use centre joint oscillation with the goal of achieving an overall width estimated at 2,8 m.
The 602 prototype for Les Cognées will also be fitted with a French designed and manufactured swing boom for use primarily in Europe.
