📚 What’s the difference between cable skidders and grapple skidders?
Answer: Cable skidders (like the 440 Series) use a winch and cable to drag logs, while grapple skidders (like the 660D and 848G) use a hydraulic grapple for faster handling. Our manuals cover both types with model-specific procedures for winch maintenance and grapple hydraulics.
