The Wallenstein LXT115 Highway-Towable Log Loader Trailer is a self-contained log handling solution designed for compact tractors and full-size pickup trucks. With an 11 ft 6 in horizontal reach, 1,200 lb lift capacity, and 11,500 lb load capacity, it is built to load and transport logs efficiently in forestry, firewood, land-clearing, and property-maintenance applications. Its Vanguard® 10 hp engine powers the self-contained system, while the 270° boom swing, 360° grapple rotation, hydraulic stabilizers, and highway-towable trailer design provide practical positioning and loading capability wherever the work takes place.
The LXT115 combines a log loader and trailer into one highway-towable package. The loader provides an 11 ft 6 in horizontal reach and a 15 ft 5 in vertical reach from the ground to the closed grapple, helping operators collect and position logs around the trailer bed. The grapple opens from 3 to 40 inches and rotates through 360°, allowing logs to be aligned for loading and transport.
A 132-inch trailer bed and 11,500 lb load capacity provide substantial carrying capability for moving logs. Hydraulic stabilizers spread to 8 ft 11 in to support the loader during operation, while self-centering bunk posts help organize the load. The walking beam axle, electric brakes, and 2-5/16-inch ball hitch support highway towing when matched with a suitable tow vehicle.
The Wallenstein LXT115 is suited to operations that need to load and transport logs without relying on a separate stationary loader. Its self-contained configuration is appropriate for forestry work, firewood handling, land clearing, and general property maintenance where logs must be gathered, loaded, and moved using a highway-towable trailer.
The LXT115 is designed for use with compact tractors and full-size pickup trucks. The minimum tow vehicle requirement is a 3/4-ton vehicle. Confirm that the tow vehicle, hitch, braking connection, payload rating, and operating conditions are suitable for the loaded trailer before use.
