The lumber trailers have a high ground clearance.

TAIL LIGHTS
The G2 trailers have lights as standard, for your
safety and for the safety of others. The rear lights
are folded into the chassis and protected during
exposed forestry work.

FARMA GENERATION 2
FARMA Generation 2; products based on user experience. The range contains
innovative design and technical development that takes it a step further. FARMA
G2 involves an upgrading both of products and design, but it also represents a
further development of the brand into new lines of business. Our long experience
in the industry and our global purchasing team provide the conditions for compre-
hensive equipment options and competitive prices. We help you to work profitably. FARMA
Generation 2 has been developed by foresters for foresters.

We proudly present our 6-ton lumber trailer with the FARMA C 4,2 crane, our most recent addition
to our FARMA Generation 2 series. C 4,2 is a small but powerful crane equipped with a linkage
system and well suited for the purpose. Yet another important step in our efforts to offer all our
customers, regardless of work, the best of cranes suited just for their needs.
The crane has a reach of 4,2 m and is equipped with a single extension of 0,6 m. C 4,2 lifts 480 kg

gives you a completely new movement pattern. The C 5.3 G2 is a more modern crane,
including a linkage system for optimum movement pattern and lifting power. You can
compare the specifications for the cranes later in the brochure. Then it's your choice
whether you go for a classic or one of the new Generation 2 cranes. That it's a model
that suits a great number of active forest owners is shown by the number of trailers
sold. Perhaps it would suit you too. You don't lightly abandon a true classic!

FARMA 6.3/6.7-9F 4WD option


FARMA T9F has been one of the market’s bestselling lumber trailers for more than a decade.
The placement of the frame steering far back on the chassis gives an easily handled trailer
that tracks the tractor when driving in the forest. The latest variant of FARMA T9F has been
equipped with a fixed crane platform with a low placement, which gives a good view of the
forestry work from inside the tractor. FARMA T9F can be ordered with either telescopic or
flap down support legs – the choice is yours. FARMA 9 tonne can also be delivered in a 4WD
design. The drive is easily handled with the press of a button from inside the tractor, which is
interconnected with the main valve for simple hose routing. Note! The drive must be speci-
fied when ordering and cannot be retrofitted on the trailer. FARMA T9F can be supplied with
FARMA 6.3 metre G2 crane or our new Generation 3 crane FARMA 6.7 G3. Both crane models
are equipped with telescopic extension and linkages for the best movement patterns and
lifting capacity.

For dimensional diagrams, For more information about standard and additional
see pages 22–23. equipment, please see the matrix on page 21.
11

FARMA 6.3/6.7-10F 4WD option


FARMA T10F is in many ways similar to its smaller sibling. It is also equipped with the unparal-
leled frame steering, good visibility through the railing and bolted support legs where you
can easily choose between flap down or telescopic. The difference between the models lies
primarily in the load volume and wheel size. FARMA T10 F is equipped with a wider 480 mm
wheel and has a slightly larger load area. FARMA T10F can, exactly as the 9 tonne trailer, be
ordered in a 4 WD design. The Robson-drive is well-proven and significantly increases your
accessibility in the forest. The drive is easily handled with the press of a button from inside
the tractor and is interconnected with the main valve for simple hose routing. Note! The
drive must be specified when ordering and cannot be retrofitted on the trailer. FARMA T10F
can be supplied with FARMA 6.3 metre G2 crane or our new Generation 3 FARMA 6.7 G3. Both
crane models are equipped with telescopic extension and linkages for the best movement
patterns and lifting capacity.

For dimensional diagrams, For more information about standard and additional
see pages 22–23. equipment, please see the matrix on page 21.
12

The FARMA C 7.0 is one of the market's most well-thought out and best value-for-money
cranes. The crane has a reach of 7.0 m with single extension. The lifting power and movement­
geometry are exceptional. The attractive design, together with the choice of material, give a low
dead weight.
The T10 G2 can be combined with C 7.0 as well as C 6.3 crane. The T12 G2 crane can also be
equipped on request with the C 8.5 crane with double extension, for a trailer out of the
ordinary.
13

FARMA CT 7.0–10/T12 G2
FARMA proudly presents our new design-protected series of lumber trailers under the
concept FARMA Generation 2. Trailers based on user experience. This is a completely
new and innovative design, mainly thanks to the octagonal, bent, centre profile, which
gives a more durable design that also means the central section glides more easily over
high stumps and rocks. In its basic version, the trailer was introduced in the T10 and
T12 models. The level of standard equipment is high. The T12 G2 comes with hydraulic
extension bank for the rear bank in standard.
The differences between the trailer models lie in the quantity of timber the trailer is
intended to handle. The T12 G2 has 20% thicker steel in the central section, which gives
better possibilities of withstanding the forces from our cranes with large lifting torque
and heavier load. The trailer can be specially equipped, based on a number of options,
direct from the factory.

For dimensional diagrams, For more information about standard and additional
see pages 22–23. equipment, please see the matrix on page 21.
14 8.5–12 4WD G2

The T12 4WD G2 has hydraulic drive as standard


with two drive modes – forwards and backwards.
The power in the trailer’s 4WD is among the mar-
ket’s best. The drive is extremely useful in difficult
driving conditions on soft ground and in hilly ar-
eas. It is also an advantage when unloading at
stacking areas because you drive shorter distances
between different ranges without needing to use
anything more than the trailer’s drive.
15

FARMA CT 8.5–12 4WD G2


FARMA presents our professional and value-for-money T12 4WD lumber trailer in the
Generation 2 series. The octagonal, bent, centre profile gives the trailer a new and in-
novative design. The frame is more impact- resistant and its form, with angled surfaces,
makes the trailer better able to deflect high stumps and rocks in the forest.
The level of standard equipment is high. The T12 4WD has a hydraulic drive as stand-
ard and is equipped with 500/55x17 Trac tyres. Four banks, two of which are movable.
­Double trailer steering cylinders provide uniform torque on the drawbar. A hydraulic
folding railing increases accessibility behind the crane and contributes to better
­visibility. The hidden hose runs, as well as the integrated rear lights in the chassis, which
gives good protection to vulnerable parts during forestry work.
The FARMA C 8.5 is our longest and most professional crane. A modern crane with link-
age system. The crane’s design offers the very best close range properties, more even
operation and an outer arm that is equally powerful throughout the whole working
range. The C 8.5 has a double telescopic extension with a stroke length of 2.9 m in total.
The crane can be customized to your particular needs for controls. We deliver the
market’s most extensive range of valves. Everything from the simplest multi-lever
control to our most advanced valve.
