The Wallenstein FX110 11,000 LB Skidding Winch is a PTO-driven tractor-mounted winch designed for demanding log skidding work. With an 11,000 lb (4,989 kg) pulling capacity, a durable steel cable, and manual control through a mechanical dry-disc clutch, the FX110 provides a practical solution for moving logs with tractors in the 50–90 engine HP range. Its Category I and Category II 3-point hitch mounting supports compatibility with a broad range of suitable tractors, while the included choker chains and keyhole sliders help secure and attach loads for forestry and property-maintenance applications.
The FX110 combines tractor PTO power with a mechanical winch system for controlled log recovery and skidding. The 540 rpm PTO input drives the winch, while the mechanical dry-disc clutch supports the winch’s manual-control operation. Its 165 ft (50 m) steel cable provides useful reach between the tractor and the load, and the 11,000 lb capacity is suited to substantial skidding tasks when used with a properly matched tractor and appropriate equipment.
The Wallenstein FX110 is intended for use as a tractor-mounted PTO skidding winch. Its 3-point hitch mounting system supports Category I and Category II tractors, while the 21 in (53 cm) PTO height and compact transport width of 51 in (130 cm) provide key dimensions for assessing tractor and access compatibility. The winch weighs 796 lb (361 kg), so the tractor’s lifting capacity, stability, and operating suitability should be considered before use.
The included steel cable, two choker chains, and two keyhole sliders provide the primary cable and load-attachment equipment specified for the FX110. The winch has a listed line speed of 98–253 ft/min (30–77 m/min), allowing the cable to be managed across a range of operating conditions.
