Additional Details:
Advanced engineering features mark new Washington spars. Backed by many years of experience in the design and production of logging equipment, the Washington Iron Works now builds a telescoping steel spar, yarder and self-propelled carrier unit incorporating many engineering advances. Integral Washington yarder may be either a Model 158 or Model 208. Both are of true interlocking design for increased efficiency and speed of operation. Both yarder and carrier are driven by the same 350hp diesel engine, with torque converter and four-speed transmission, forward and reverse. The new Washington spars have received quick acceptance by leading logging operators. Pictured here is one of the new units with 110' mast and Model 158 yarder, at work for Crown Zellerbach Corp. near Grand Ronde, Oreg. A Washington Trakloader does the loading
