Tigercat launches LX877 feller buncher

January 4, 2025

Tigercat has released the LX877 feller buncher, the second model built on the new sloped tail platform. The LX877 is equipped with Tigercat's closed-loop drive system. Its 260 kW (350 hp) engine is best suited to high production, steep slopes, and mature timber clear-fell applications.

Optimised weight distribution, low centre of mass, and Tigercat's patented levelling undercarriage provide the operator with comfort, stability and confidence on sloped terrain.

A distinctive design feature is the sloped tail profile. It provides increased levelling capability to 26 degrees and enhanced cable clearance in winch-assisted applications. Tigercat says the LX877 best matches its 5702 and 5702-26 felling saws.

Along with the improved levelling angles, Tigercat redesigned the ER boom system to provide a larger envelope with tighter tuck and increased below-grade capability. Through-tip hose routing protects the boom hoses that lead to the felling head. 

Other enhancements include service access improvements and in-tank hydraulic filtration for extended service intervals. The side-opening engine enclosure completely exposes the engine's top and sides and most hydraulic components. When open, the enclosure roof is a safe, spacious and convenient work platform.
