A BIGGER CUT.
A BROAD WORKING
RANGE.

Developed for large trees in Central Europe and now used across the Nordic countries and North America, TMK 400 is designed for big logs as well as smaller brush. Its 1,070 mm opening and 620 kg base weight pair a robust structure with a wide range of cutting work.

Let’s match it to your machine

Specifications and fitment depend on tree species, machine hydraulics and selected attachments. Confirm the configuration with Forotek.

ENGINEERED FOR THE CUT

Wear-resistant where it counts.

THE RIGHT TOOL FOR YOUR CARRIER

02

FIND ITS PLACE
IN THE MACHINE YARD.

Catalog excavator class is 10–30 tonnes; larger skid steers and wheel loaders are also listed. The catalog says the shear remains under 850 kg when equipped with Collector and Delimber together. Confirm lift capacity and the complete configured weight with Forotek.

Check my machine fit
A

Excavators

Catalog carrier class: 10–30 tonnes. Check lift capacity and hydraulic setup for the specific machine.

B

Large skid steers

The catalog lists larger skid steers as a compatible machine category.

C

Wheel loaders

The catalog also lists larger wheel loaders; verify interface and machine capacity.

Compatibility depends on machine, mounting, oil flow, pressure and job. Send Foretek your make and model for a fitment check.

BUILD IT AROUND THE JOB

YOUR SETUP

Select a reach, gathering, connection or handling option for the job. Attachment weights are additional to the base shear unless the catalog specifies otherwise.

TILT

GRAB

+2 kg / 4 lb

The catalog lists the Collector and Delimber together at +65 kg (145 lb), while the individual entries are each shown as +40 kg. Its Delimber imperial conversion also appears inconsistent, so only the catalog’s metric weight is shown here. The catalog’s TMK 250 narrative mentions up to 3.6 m of reach, while its general Hydraulic Extension entry describes 1.6 m of hydraulically operated reach and about 3 m overall. These reach figures conflict; confirm the configured reach with Forotek. Confirm final combination and carrier limits with Forotek.
