Ponsse has introduced a new extended protection system for forest machines called Frame and Crane care for machines that have a Ponsse Active Care service agreement. The Frame and Crane care covers main frame structures for up to 10,000 engine hours. Source: Timberbiz

The Frame and Crane care covers main frame structures for up to 10,000 engine hours if the machine has a valid service agreement during that period. The Ponsse Active care service agreement needs to be valid for the whole period, but the agreement can be made in several parts.

“With the new Frame and Crane care package our customers can get even more out from their service agreements.” says Eveliina Pölkki, Product Group Responsible for service agreements at Ponsse.

Ponsse Frame and Crane care covers the front and rear frame, middle pivot and articulated frames, crane base, main, lifting and luffing booms without extensions and pillars.

The new Frame and Crane care is valid for machines that have service agreements and are manufactured starting from 2021.

With Ponsse Active Care service agreements operators can focus on their key business of logging while Ponsse takes care of scheduled maintenance, machine optimization and extended cover.
