Am I right in thinking these machines had International harvester engines? Comment left on 05 November 2016 at 09:21 by Leslie Phillip

Yes, they used the International engine and International's Hydro transmission. Comment left on 30 November 2016 at 20:45 by David Shearer

Were these forwarders eight wheel drive.? Comment left on 03 November 2017 at 12:33 by Leslie Phillip

Yes, geared bogies back and front. Still a few going. FC had bed processors on the same chassis. Comment left on 04 November 2017 at 10:27 by David Shearer

i completely rewired a Bruunett on site after it went on fire in Glenferness Forest for the FC - that would be in 1984. The cause was twigs jammed the AC motor above the cab. Comment left on 10 November 2017 at 21:02 by Dave Riach
