Abstract: A method and system for controlling a power-transmission device in a forest machine having a harvester head includes measuring a selected property of at least two trees with aid of observation means on a basis of electromagnetic radiation at a distance from the trees being measured to create measurement data. The power-transmission device is controlled by software on the basis of the measurement data to change a state of the power-transmission device to optimize energy required to perform an operation of an operating device. The operating device uses the energy transmitted by the power-transmission device (after the change in state of the power-transmission device) so that operation of the operating device creates a change in the attitude, location, or state of the harvester head.

Abstract: A method for controlling operation of a wood-handling device in a work machine. The wood-handling device is attached through a rotation device to an end of a set of booms of the work machine to create a desired orientation of the wood-handling device for the operation.
