Question by: Todd M on Feb 8, 2026, 9:09 AM
what all kind of equipment is this steering unit used on? asking cause we run everything from tractors to skidders and need something that'll work across the board
Answer by: Customer Support on Feb 9, 2026, 3:18 PM
Agricultural machinery, forestry equipment, construction equipment, turf care, and general industrial equipment are all covered applications for this unit. If your operation runs skidders and tractors both, that range of use is exactly what the Char-Lynn Orbitrol Series 3, 6, and 12 was built around. One unit family handling multiple machine types is a real practical advantage when you're keeping a mixed fleet running.
