FAQ

CAN YOU DRIVE THE MACHINE MANUALLY?

+

-

Yes! To operate the machine manually all the operator has to do is flip a switch on the dash. Kodama’s hardware is deliberately non-invasive.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE SKIDDER GETS STUCK?

+

-

Our operator can normally self-recover. If that doesn’t work, we call upon the crew to assist, just like a traditional operation.

HOW DOES COMMUNICATION WORK BETWEEN THE REMOTE OPERATOR AND THE CREW?

+

-

Our remote operators can communicate with your crew using your traditional channels. They use a Starlink-to-CB radio connection or a cellphone, whichever is preferred by your crew.

WHO FUELS THE MACHINE?

+

-

During early deploymeny, a Kodama Support Technician handles fueling and greasing the skidder. After that, a member of the logging crew typically takes over those daily maintenance tasks. We use the dealer for comprehensive service. ​
