The Axis Rebel T22HD is the result of more than 15 years of rebuilding, repairing, and improving harvester heads from every major manufacturer. Built in Canada and proven in demanding forestry applications, the T22HD was designed to maximize uptime, simplify maintenance, and deliver the performance contractors need to stay productive and profitable.
For more than 16 years, Axis Forestry has rebuilt harvester heads from nearly every major manufacturer. That experience provided a unique opportunity to see what works, what fails, and what operators truly need in the woods. The Rebel T22HD is the result of those lessons—combining proven design concepts with modern engineering, premium materials, and direct factory support to create a harvester head built for long-term ownership.
Power isn't just hydraulic pressure—it's the combination of intelligent design, efficient hydraulics, responsive controls, and operator confidence. The Rebel T22HD was engineered as a complete harvesting system, integrating the harvester head, Cypress controller, and hydraulic package into one seamless platform. The result is faster feeding, stronger delimbing, smoother operation, and the production contractors need to stay profitable.
Every component on the Rebel T22HD was designed with one goal: maximize uptime. From the rugged steel frame and protected components to the simplified service access and heavy-duty hydraulic systems, the T22HD is built to keep working in demanding hardwood, softwood, and mixed-wood applications. Less downtime. Faster service. More production.
Feature HighlightsDimensions |

| The Rebel T22HD features a strong frame designed to withstand difficult hardwood and heavily branched softwood. Committing to the highest quality materials available, the T22HD is a combination of lightweight engineering and brute strength steel. Can measure up to 78 cm | 31" wood diameters, but optimal feeding is 10 cm – 61 cm | 4" – 24". Full 360° rotation allows for working in tight areas and eliminates base machine hose damage. | ||

| Chain Lube Capacity | 13 litre | 3.5 gal | |
Feature HighlightsMeasuring |
|
| By far the most important feature when working long days is the control system. The operator has to control the harvester like it's an extension of their own hands and the Cypress measuring system bridges that gap. The ease of use, simplicity, reliability and smooth operation make it the most popular measuring system on the market. Prioritizing accurate measuring, log quality checks will become a breeze. As good as the measuring system is, it's only as good as the components, the machine and the operator. The Rebel features well-guarded and robust sensors to assist high quality measurements and log quality. | |
