Rottne F20E is a sturdy forwarder with very large load capacity of a full 20 tonnes, making it perfect for transport for long forwarding distances. The balanced bogies, with large wide wheels, provide excellent flotation capacity and smooth and gentle travel.
Powerful engine and variable transmission
Rottne F20E has a well-balanced power train with a diesel engine that can be run at a low working engine speed, as it achieves maximum torque between 1,000 and 1,500 rpm. The variable hydrostatic transmission with a tractive force of a full 27 tonnes (270 kN) means that Rottne F20E can manoeuvre without problem in all types of terrain and can maintain a high driving speed even with maximum load.
Fast crane with long reach
The crane with designation RK 160 has top-class performance. RK160 has a large oil flow and the valve package is mounted on the crane close to the cylinders, instead of on the machine chassis, which means the crane remains fast. The torsionally strong base, powerful lift capacity and a reach of up to 10 metres, means loading and unloading can be carried out quickly and efficiently.
