The Kesla 20SH-II stroke harvester is dominate in delimbing power. For lower flow and horsepower base machines, the 20SH-II is a perfect match. If speed isn't a concern, but log quality and excellent delimbing power is, the 20SH-II is a winner. Ideal wood type is 25cm/10" diameters, but can easily harvest a 50cm/20" tree from the stump no problem. Well suited to 7 to 13 ton base machines, 20SH-II is an excellent choice for land owners that don't log full time, but every once in a while need to do some work on their land. Low cost of transporting makes this an ideal forestry package for small logging operations, landscaping companies, community forests, and land owners.

Intelligent Finnish engineering, designed to be simple, easy to service, and very reliable, the stroke harvester design is perfect for the business focussed on small clean up work, fuel reduction work for fire mitigation, storm clean up.

Power

Power

The delimbing force is what the stroke heads are known for. Although a slower moving harvester, the delimbing force is unmatched by the use of cylinder power versus feed motor power. Because there are no feed motors, the extremely powerful hydraulic cylinders will clean a tree of branches with zero issues and very little wood damage.

Measuring

The Rebel T22HD was designed hand-in-hand with the Cypress Controller — the measuring system trusted by more operators worldwide than any other. This tight integration means the head and controller feel like one machine, giving operators precision control that’s smooth, simple, and reliable even through the longest shifts. With robust, well-guarded sensors and industry-leading components like contactless magnetic encoders and laser find-end, the T22HD delivers unmatched accuracy in log length and quality. The result is faster setup, less downtime, and measuring you can count on every single day — all backed by remote assistance and support direct from the factory.
