Meet the Wallenstein WX370 20-Ton 3-Point-Hitch Hydraulic Wood Splitter, a tractor-mounted log splitter designed for efficient horizontal and vertical firewood processing. Its 4-inch x 24-inch hydraulic cylinder, wide sliding wedge, and 24-inch split opening provide the capacity needed for a range of log-splitting tasks, while direct tractor-hydraulic operation keeps the setup streamlined. The WX370 delivers up to 20 tons of splitting force at 3,000 psi, with a manufacturer rating of 16 tons at 2,550 psi, and includes hydraulic hoses and couplers for connection to a compatible tractor.
The Wallenstein WX370 can be used in both horizontal and vertical orientations. Horizontal operation is suited to processing logs at a convenient working height, while vertical operation allows larger or heavier rounds to be split on the ground rather than lifted onto the beam. Its 24-inch split opening accommodates substantial pieces of firewood, and the 10-inch wedge height supports effective log engagement.
This 3-point-hitch hydraulic wood splitter uses the tractor’s hydraulic system for direct pressure operation. The recommended minimum hydraulic flow is 10 gpm (38 L/min). The splitter features a hands-free return and auto-neutral function to help streamline repeated splitting cycles. Average split cycle time is listed as 6.62 seconds, with a 13.24-second full cycle depending on tractor hydraulic flow.
The WX370 is designed for use with a 3-point-hitch tractor mount and is compatible with Category I hitches, iMatch systems, and Quick Hitch systems. A tractor hydraulic system with a recommended minimum flow of 10 gpm (38 L/min) is required for operation. An optional W4180 PTO hydraulic pump kit is available for applications using that configuration.
