2024 Barko 260BH

Incorporating input and expertise from leading engineers, end-user customers and other forestry professionals, Barko tracked harvesters are purpose built from the ground up to provide exceptional performance. Offering an efficient combination of brute strength, customized hydraulic controls and simplified service features, Barko harvesters are the most powerful machines in their weight classes. The Barko 260B-H tracked harvester has a D7A undercarriage suitable for use with larger harvesting attachments. The machine provides 10% more torque than its predecessor, allowing it to make even quicker work of tough jobs. Engine The 260B is powered by a 225-HP Cummins QSB6.7 Tier 4 Final diesel engine with SCR after treatment. The unit includes a 36-inch-diameter auto reversing fan with automatic temperature control, and heavy-duty extreme cooling engine package. IQAN Control System IQAN electrohydraulic control system is specifically designed for Barko machines, with hydraulics tailored for harvesting applications. IQAN offers infinite variable control, including programmable settings for individual operators. IQAN-MD4 Display System information and machine diagnostics are conveyed on a convenient Parker IQAN-MD4 cab display. Enhanced Hydraulics Hydraulic system features include an electric fill pump for the hydraulic tank and an improved internal hydraulic bypass for more consistent temperature in all weather conditions. Hydraulic tank vacuum pump is also standard. Undercarriage The D7A undercarriage with 8-inch chain pitch offers ground clearance of 29 inches and track width of 11 feet, 1.5 inches with 700-mm pads. Drawbar Pull The 260B is a 60,000-pound class machine that delivers an impressive drawbar pull of better than 1.13 to 1 ratio, giving it the ability to handle steep hills and rough terrain with ease. Swing Dual swing-drive motors provide continuous rotation and high swing torque of 50,787 foot-pounds. The machine features a heavy-duty, oversized swing bearing and offers excellent boom reach. Forward-Sliding Cab A patent-pending, forward-sliding cab design allows the cab to move out up to 36 inches for easier serviceability. Gull Wing Door A large, hydraulically opening gull wing door offers direct access to the engine and components. Spanning nearly the full length of the machine, the gull wing serves as a working platform, complete with a slip-resistant walking surface. Air Compressor An exclusive feature to Barko in the harvesters market, an on-board air compressor provides immediate work tool capability. Tool Storage The 260B is designed with built-in tool storage areas under the cab and within the car body. Operator Cab The state-of-the-art, climate controlled operator's cab includes a heated air-ride seat, large access door, dome light, AM/FM radio with MP3 auxiliary, in-cab storage, cup holder, and cell phone holder. Visibility A 1.25-inch polycarbonate window provides added safety on harvesting jobs, while an air knife system keeps the front window and oversized skylight clear of debris. A sliding rear window and exterior LED lighting further contribute to excellent visibility around the entire working area. Fuel Tank 125-gallon (473 L) fuel tank capacity allows for longer operating intervals. Attachment Versatility Barko gives you the flexibility to choose from a wide range of factory-approved attachments.
