SkidMate MK2 Log Skidding Arch for ATVs

SKU: 41250-MK2

$876.00

Pull logs out of your woodlot and right to your milling site, by yourself with your ATV, using the Norwood SkidMate MK2.

  • Nimble and narrow enough to reach deep into the forest,
  • Rugged enough to handle uneven terrain,
  • Light enough to help keep your woodlot floor healthy and productive.

The self-loading design means that, as you gun the ATV, the choked end of the log, connected to the smooth-action roller, slides up the bar and is hoisted high into the arch. This keeps your logs off the ground, mud-free and easier to skid. To unload, simply reverse the ATV. The position and angle of the wheels help ensure that the SkidMate MK2 can ride up and over small rocks and logs.

Beware of Chinese-made imitations of Norwood’s original log arch design. Norwood’s SkidMate MK2 is made of North-American steel, protected by commercial-grade powder coating and manufactured here to meet Norwood’s high standards.

The SkidMate MK2 can handle logs up 18” (45 cm) wide by 12 ft (3.6 m) long and 760 lbs (350 kg). Maximum load of 350 lb (160 kg) at the arch*. Shipped in kit form to keep your delivery costs to a minimum.

*Actual load varies depending upon terrain and ATV size and type. Operation on hilly terrain or in wet conditions not recommended. Good judgment and experience required.

Choker chains and grapples sold separately.

    Standard, Norwood band sawmills are 16-feet long (4.8m) so you can cut upto 13 -feet (4m) long depending on the model.

    To saw longer, add optional 4-foot (1.2m) log deck extensions. You can saw logs of any length in stationary configuration – some Norwood owners are sawing logs over 40-feet (12.1m) long!If you want to add the trailer system to your Norwood, you can still add bed extensions, but cannot go as long.

    With the HD36V2 or HD38, you could add one permanent 4-ft (1.2m) log deck extension and up to two 2-ft (0.6m) detachable extensions to saw logs up to 21-feet (6.4m).
