Looks like it ran a little bit warm.

Was the cause of the fire established? Burst hose, debris initiated fire etc?

I can’t say I’ve seen too many timberpro’s burned up. Cat 521’s on the other hand…

Blown main lift cylinder hose is what we figured. Durning a burn off cycle. It went up like a blow torch. Fire systems slowed it for just a couple seconds.

I just saw a 775 that was burned like that where insurance paid for a complete new upper from TimberPro. They put it on the good lower and away he went with essentially a brand new machine.

I know the tigercat fanbois talk down about them but I've had every brand out there and the TimberPro is the most powerful and best laid out.
We currently have a 775 leveling shovel and I tell everyone it's just like a 568 that levels with a 5ft shorter boom
