TL17

Generation 3 L-Type crane — 148 kNm of lifting moment and 290 bar operating pressure

148 kNm

Lifting moment (max)

10,4 m

Hydraulic outreach (max)

2 440 kg

Dead weight (open-model Classic Drive)

32 kNm

Slewing torque (net)

The TL17 is the stronger L-type timber crane in the Generation 3 range — 148 kNm of lifting moment and high 290 bar operating pressure with a 10.4 m boom. Stronger than the TL15 while retaining the L-type's compact design. Smart Control option, Load Sensing hydraulics, and protected hose routing (EPSLINK + EPSCOPE + HPI) make the TL17 a powerful choice for demanding conditions.

Stronger L-type

The TL17 combines 148 kNm of lifting moment with high 290 bar operating pressure — a stronger L-type choice than the TL15, with a compact 10.4 m boom.

Stronger L-type

Smart Control & integrated electronic end stop damper

Smart Control is available as an option: easier, more intuitive and faster operation. The integrated electronic end stop damper reduces wear.

Protected hydraulic routing

EPSLINK, EPSCOPE and internal hose routing (HPI) protect the hydraulics from mechanical damage, particularly when working in dense forests.

Protected hydraulic routing

Central greasing system

The automatic system supplies all key systems, reducing grease consumption by up to 80% and extending the service life of bronze bearings.

Emergency stop

Standard on all control methods — safe shutdown in dangerous situations.

Seat switch

Integrated safety mechanism ensures controls are active only while the operator is seated.

Optional Features

Smart Control

Smart Control

Boom-tip control system — the operator focuses on the boom tip rather than individual cylinders. Includes an integrated electronic end stop damper.

Load Sensing (LS)

Load Sensing (LS)

Enables up to 12% faster operation — improves efficiency in demanding lifts.

LED360-valaistus

LED360 lighting

Six 3,000-lumen floodlights on the control stand plus two on the knuckle boom — full 360° illumination for low-light and inclement weather.
