Boom performance: The enhanced boom performance
heightens productivity by making maneuverability more
efficient and maximizing cutting time.
2
Hydraulic system: With a faster hydraulic system,
the multifunctioning J-Series are the ringleaders of the
industry. The new system architecture and hydraulic
prioritization mean no waiting for power — or oil. That
means you can get more done, faster and more precisely.
Plus, hydraulics run cooler and more efficiently, making
pumps last longer.
3
Cutting swath: The cutting swath has been increased
by an impressive 50 percent, allowing operators to make
a wide range of strategic and productive cuts with less
tracking and traveling.
4
Flexxaire® fan system: An optional reverse-blower
function clears debris from blocking airflow, keeping
the machine clean and cool.
5
Attachment crank/link, and valve: An attachment
crank/link is standard for all available heads. The
attachment valve has been relocated to improve
overall felling head efficiency and cycle times. Also,
the simplified design has resulted in over 100 fewer
feet of hoses and tubes, and 20 fewer connections.

With increased efficiency and reliability, the 700J-Series boasts its newly designed hydraulic system with
improvements you can see and feel across functions. With 23-percent higher flow to the main circuits over the
previous models, you’ll throw in the towel before these machines do. And 17-percent higher flow to the felling
attachment means more muscle to handle the trees, with a faster saw recover time. Your operators will applaud
its easy maneuverability and increased cutting swath. And you’ll love how the powerful and agile new J-Series
Feller Bunchers make every minute in the woods a productive one.

The redesigned boom on the 700J-Series Feller Bunchers offers
an impressive cutting swath that has increased by 50-percent over
the previous models.
Upper leveling: Shift-Tilt™ technology gives the J-Series the
industry’s most stable platform for cutting on difficult slopes.
Its four-way leveling system allows the upper structure to shift
a full three feet forward, keeping the machine’s center of gravity
up onto the steep inclines.
Engine design: Improved engine design enhances efficiency,
reliability, and durability.
Tractive effort: These powerful machines boast a proven
tractive-effort-to-weight ratio to keep your operation going
strong — even in swampy or super-steep areas.
Hydraulic system: The power-controlled, load-sensing hydraulics
increase oil flow to improve function speeds in peak performance
situations and increase the hydraulic system’s lifespan. Plus, the
hydraulics run cooler, making pumps last longer and keeping your
equipment running smarter with much more time between repairs.
Swing torque and acceleration: With 29-percent more swing
torque, these machines move faster into position, ready and
waiting for your operator to make the next cut.
8
Effective power management: Get all the power you need without
draining it from other system functions. Instead, new hydraulics
prioritize power loads, ensuring essential tasks like saw recovery
always have enough dedicated flow. Not only do you get maximum
power, but moving parts aren’t starved for oil — so you’ll have less
downtime for maintenance, and cuts and cutting intervals can
happen as fast as an operator wants.

Cut timber — and your costs —
down to size.
The field-tested enhancements of the 700J-Series Feller Bunchers were designed for
lower operating costs and easier service and maintenance. At the core of the J-Series’
improved daily and long-term fuel efficiency is a streamlined hydraulic system. Meanwhile,
the newly styled optional Flexxaire fan system reduces debris buildup, ensuring cooler,
more efficient hydraulics. And better service access and a cleaner hydraulic layout require
fewer parts — making service and maintenance a breeze.

A convenient ladder helps make service quick and easy.
4
The optional Flexxaire system is a pneumatically actuated variable-pitch
fan, controlled by a timer and manual purge switch. At regular intervals
the fan will reverse airflow direction to blow debris out of the radiator.
The operator can reverse the airflow through the coolers manually at
any time via a switch in the cab.
