Focus on the operator
The new H-series operator’s station is spacious and comfortable with advanced ergonomics and a completely redesigned Turnaround system. The cab is 20% larger. 19% increase in window areas for unsurpassed sightlines in all directions. 50% more HVAC venting with refined temperature control and automatic defrost.

The small details like a climate controlled cup holder, and a place to hang your hat make long days feel shorter. The durable interior finish is easy to clean. The 5-point harness makes extreme terrain feel a little bit tamer.
The difference is in the drive…
Hydrostatic drive offers many advantages. Performance in tough terrain is excellent because full tractive effort is available at any engine speed, minimizing wheel spin and improving breakout performance. The operator appreciates simplified drive control with no gear shifting.
Electronic control technology combined with Tigercat’s unique hydrostatic drive system allows the skidder to operate at variable engine rpm, automatically increasing engine speed when additional horsepower is demanded. The result is improved fuel economy.
