Incorporating a less complex, easier-to-maintain design, John Deere L-II Series Skidders are well equipped to handle the toughest forest environments.

Operator comfort equals more productivity, so it makes sense our cabs are designed by loggers for loggers. As a result, the quiet and spacious cab, highly efficient HVAC system, and operator configurable controls all contribute to more comfortable and productive operators – helping to boost your bottom line.

John Deere Log Skidders give you superb power and versatility

The L-II Series Skidders combine impressive horsepower and power-to-weight ratio with a constant engine speed. In addition, the rock-solid stability provides excellent pulling power – especially when climbing hills, navigating adverse terrain, or hauling big loads.
