Overview

The Weiler S340 Wheel Skidder is built for high productivity, operator comfort, and long-term durability with a simplified, continuously variable-speed hydrostatic ground drive that delivers smooth operation, strong pulling power, and optimal ground speed for efficient skidding. Its high-capacity, multi-function hydraulics allow operators to steer and control other functions simultaneously, while independent front and rear differential locks provide excellent traction and performance in tough, wet logging conditions. A spacious, comfortable cab features large front and rear glass, a narrow sloped hood for exceptional visibility, and ergonomic joystick steering with customizable button mapping and optional mechanical rotating seat controls. Operator access is made easy with wide steps, 90-degree door openings, and conveniently placed ground-level service points, including the DEF tank, cab tilt pump, hydraulic fill pump, and battery access in side-mounted saddle bags. The machine’s clean, robust design features 50% fewer hoses in the center section, a front-mounted variable-speed reversing fan, and durable construction components like dual tapered roller bearing hitch pins and thick steel panels—resulting in lower operating costs, easier serviceability, and maximum structural life in demanding forestry environments.
