Designed with a low bed height, robust wheel arches, and full front and rear loading ramps, it delivers excellent stability, straightforward loading, and reliable performance in demanding forestry environments. Its low-ride design also ensures the trailer remains within the 4-metre overall height restriction for European road transport, making it ideal for compliant machine movement.

Built to handle serious workloads, the trailer offers a gross weight of up to 33 tonnes and a 10-metre bed length, providing ample capacity for modern forestry equipment. Commercial-spec 10 stud axles, combined with parabolic spring suspension and adjustable torque arms, deliver exceptional strength, durability, and ride stability across rough terrain while maintaining safe and controlled operation on the road.

With EU Whole Vehicle Type Approval, the trailer complies with the relevant European road vehicle regulations, providing operators with a fully approved solution for legal road use across Europe. Full LED lighting, including rear lamp clusters and front and side marker lights, ensures excellent visibility in all conditions, while practical features such as an integrated toolbox within the bed enhance day-to-day usability.

Heavy-duty 730mm wide manual loading ramps provide dependable access for forestry machinery. These are complemented by a 50mm heavy-duty towing eye with an adjustable plate and a sprung drawbar, improving towing comfort and reducing stress on both the trailer and towing vehicle. Multiple tie-down points on the deck and sides ensure machines are securely restrained during transport, enhancing safety at every stage.

Optional features include hydraulic ramps, a removable front headboard or no front ramps, a hydraulic jack leg, and a K80 ball hitch, allowing the trailer to be tailored to specific operational requirements.

Designed and manufactured to Chieftain's exacting standards, this forestry trailer delivers the strength, reliability, and performance required to transport forwarders and harvesting machines safely, efficiently, and with complete confidence.

With a capacity of up to 33 tonnes and a 10-metre bed, it is built for demanding workloads, featuring strong 10-stud axles, parabolic suspension and adjustable torque arms, and reliable braking for rough terrain and road use.
