Todd Richard – Canada
- The 7000XT is the best setup for us. We cut mix stands, and it works well in smaller softwood and has the power to handle big hardwoods. The head is well protected, and the measuring system is accurate. We have minimal downtime, and this machine runs 12 hours a day, seven days a week. I've been running Log Max for over 15 years now, and if I would become an owner, I would only buy Log Max.
Sean Storey - Canada
- Support is big for me. I don't think I have ever been stopped, waiting for a part, much thanks to Log Max Forestry Inc. in Canada. Their knowledge of the product is second to none. The other big point with Log Max is that it's the only head on the market with any resale value. It doesn't matter how many hours are on it. If it's a Log Max, it can be resold. Other brands don't hold their value, and they're hard to sell used.
FEATURES
What makes the Log Max 7000XT your best choice
Withstand extrem conditions
Part of the XT series, this head is designed to withstand extremely tough working conditions and is to be mounted to tracked carriers.
Hydraulic upper delimbing knife
This equipment allows you to hydraulically retract the upper delimbing knife towards the frame when reversing or when cutting with the top saw. This function is highly recommended when processing full-length logs, working with crooked hardwood or eucalyptus.
Cast felling link
The felling link is cast in one piece to maximize its strength and durability. This is a more robust construction, great for heads mounted to tracked carriers or excavators working in tough conditions.
TECHNOLOGY
Unique technologies for your Log Max head
Active friction control - AFC
The AFC system is our head’s key technology and allows our heads to harvest trees with high precision and minimal friction.
The goal of the AFC is to minimize the friction between the trunk and the frame, which leads to minimal wear on the unit and lower operating costs because the head doesn't use more power than necessary.
The wood quality will also be high, as neither knives nor feed wheels need to use unnecessary force that damages the wood during processing.

Log Mate 510
Log Mate 510 is our control system specially developed for Log Max harvester heads and is the absolute best control system for our products.
The control system is robust and compact, and of the highest quality. It is Windows-based, which simplifies the administration and updating of the system and provides good support for all new programs and services.
The system uses the latest forest standard StanForD 2010 v2 and v3 and consists of three modules, screen, cabin, and head module.

Hydraulics
The hydraulics of our heads are characterized by a simple design. We use a proven technology that we trust and that results in reliable hose management and stable pressures throughout.
Our system has small hydraulic losses, which means that we get the most out of the head's performance.

Feed rollers for Log Max 7000XT
V-STEEL SOFT GRIP
Self-cleaning feed wheels with high traction, both forwards and backwards, without risk of slip damage. The Soft Grip has a slightly lower stud (ca 5 mm) which gives less penetration into the trunk.
V-STEEL HARD GRIP
Self-cleaning feed wheels with high traction, both forwards and backwards, without the risk of spinning. The Hard Grip has a slightly higher stud (ca 10 mm) that provides a better grip around the trunk.
Eucalyptus
Log Max Eucalyptus feed roller is different from our other feed rollers. They are specially designed to debark the thick bark of eucalyptus trees.

SOMETHING EXTRA
Selectable optional equipment for Log Max 7000XT
Processing knives
The processor knives have protruding tips that ease the prehension of logs from a pile of already felled trees. The processor knives are available in two designs, a welded and a cast one. They are equally durable but the welded one has replaceable knives edges, it also weighs slightly more.
Field repair kit
A spare parts kit with the most vital components to minimize downtime. Contains sensors, cylinders etc. The kit varies (content and price) depending on the head model and equipment.
Please contact us for more information.
Hose Kit
Kit with replacement hose.
Ask your local dealer for more information.
Color marking
Includes tanks and equipment for two different colors. Color marking blocks are mounted in the saw box.
Find End sensor - laser
Used to easily find the root end / zero point of a log. The Find End sensor consists of a laser that is mounted in the saw box. This allows to easily
zero-reset without having to use the saw. This function optimizes and facilitates work when processing from the pile.
Rotator control
To reduce weight and cost, it is possible to choose the rotator control option, which means that the rotator is controlled from the head instead of from the carrier.
The advantages are that it frees weight on the carrier by eliminating between 20-30 m of hose and also reduces costs. If the option is chosen, an extra valve is mounted to the head.
