John Deere’s new L-III wheeled feller bunchers deliver a simplified experience for operators that promotes productivity and confidence in the woods thanks to new features and enhancements.
Building on the expansive improvements rolled out on the L-III skidder line-up earlier this year, the new L-III wheeled feller bunchers offer new cameras and lighting enhancements to support situational awareness. The L-III models also provide new solutions and tools to help simplify the operational experience with features such as Remote Display Access (RDA) that enhance productivity and ease in the woods.
“The L-III wheeled feller buncher models deliver an exceptional experience for our customers, giving them both reliable, quality machines they can perform with, and the tools needed to work more efficiently in the woods,” said Matt Flood, Product Marketing Manager for John Deere.
“With strategically designed productivity features, connectivity capabilities and an all-around impressive operator experience, we’re confident our customers will feel ready to tackle any job head-on.”

The new wheeled models are designed with updated, comfort-focused features similar to Deere’s L-III skidder models, including the base and premium cab package options, premium lighting options and enhanced connectivity capabilities.
As well, the L-III wheeled feller bunchers feature a variety of precision solutions, including TimberMatic Maps that is standard.
To improve uptime, RDA enables dealers, owners and support personnel to view and interact with the machine’s display from any location with an Internet connection. Whether adjusting settings, pulling data or troubleshooting issues, RDA allows remote users to easily access the display as if they were sitting in the cab often saving time to travel to a site.
To increase operator efficiency, Deere added a new secondary display that is now standard in all L-III wheeled feller bunchers. When utilizing the standard camera on the machine, the secondary display in the cab will show the camera view for the operator, providing near real-time access to viewpoints outside of the machine.
The wheeled feller bunchers are also equipped with a new and advanced lighting systems. The L-III machines come standard with LED lights. Premium lighting package options are also available on these models, offering added high beam, grill and service lighting for customers needing enhanced visibility. This 200 per cent increase in light output helps operators easily view logging operations in low-light conditions.
