INFO FROM THE MANUFACTURER
To complete the range of forestry loaders, DANIELE & GIRAUDO produces the DG-K series, which has the main feature of not being foldable in a ‘Z’ shape and is therefore mainly suitable for positioning on forestry trailers or on tractors in a horizontal position above them.
