BALFOR
Forestry Winches
Get timber out of steep, wet or restricted country without taking the tractor right to the log. Balfor Legionar 3-point linkage forestry winches provide controlled timber extraction for farmers, forestry operators and contractors.
The current range covers 4 to 9 tonne pulling capacity, with mechanical, reduced-speed and electrohydraulic models to suit everything from farm firewood recovery through to regular professional forestry work.

Why Use a Forestry Winch?
Choose from 4, 5, 6, 7 and 9 tonne pulling capacities to match your tractor, timber size and terrain.
Model-dependent cable lengths from approximately 70 to 105 metres let you reach timber without taking the tractor right to the log.
Simple mechanical models suit farm and occasional forestry work, while H-series electrohydraulic machines are built for regular professional use.
Legionar winches mount to the tractor's 3-point linkage, keeping the setup compact, transportable and easy to move between jobs.
Selected electrohydraulic models can be equipped with professional wireless remote control for safer and more efficient timber extraction.
Choose the Right Balfor Legionar Winch
Rather than choosing by model number alone, start with the pulling capacity you need, then consider tractor size, terrain, cable speed and whether you want mechanical or electrohydraulic control.
BALFOR LEGIONAR RANGE
One Winch Range. Different Levels of Capacity & Control.
The Legionar range covers 4 to 9 tonne pulling capacity, with cable lengths from approximately 70 to 105 metres and tractor requirements starting from around 25 hp.
Mechanical models suit straightforward farm and firewood work, while reduced-speed and electrohydraulic models give more control for heavier timber, steeper country and regular forestry use.
Tell us your tractor model, typical timber size and terrain and we can help narrow down the most suitable winch.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT WINCH
Match the Winch to the Work
4–5 tonne: a good starting point for farm forestry, firewood recovery and lighter extraction work.
6 tonne: more pulling capacity for heavier timber, steeper terrain and more regular use.
7–9 tonne electrohydraulic: aimed at higher-volume and professional forestry work where remote control and easier operation become more valuable.
Important: tractor weight and stability matter just as much as horsepower. We can help match the winch to your tractor and terrain.
Legionar Forestry Winch Specifications
Mechanical & Reduced-Speed Models
Mechanical Legionar models cover straightforward farm forestry through to heavier 6-tonne extraction work. R models use a slower cable speed for more progressive load movement.
