The ZM65 is a timber crane for loading logs, pulpwood and firewood with a grapple at forest landings, sawmill yards and firewood yards. It has a maximum lifting capacity of 700 kg, a 6.5 t·m lifting moment and 380° slewing, and weighs 1,280 kg.
What the ZM65 is built for
Its knuckle boom has a hydraulic extension that runs from 5.35 m out to 6.5 m. Raised to 66°, the grapple sits about 8.5 m above the crane base. Lowered to −23°, it picks up logs lying below the base, for example in a ditch.
On the load chart, capacity drops to 600 kg at the full 6.5 m. Size the crane by your heaviest log at the distance you need. If you need more reach, the ZM75 timber crane extends to 7.67 m.
