The WP200 series processors are not compatible with a Quick-Hitch.

Neither the WP200 series nor the WP800 series hydraulic system has enough capacity to operate extra hydraulic attachments.

We do not have a showroom, nor do we carry inventory at the factory. We build strictly to order. All units are crated and shipped out once complete. Therefore, we would not have one here for you to see. We recommend that you visit your nearest dealer. Please see our online dealer locator.

The winch and the splitter can be operated at the same time without loss in pressure or speed.

The engines are covered by the engine manufacturer. The owner is responsible for registering the engine with the appropriate engine manufacturer or distributor, as outlined in the Engine Owner’s Manual which accompanied your Wallenstein product. All warranty work must be done by one of the engine manufacturer’s approved servicing dealers.

The Auto Cycle system is controlled by the splitter valve. The valve has two handles – one controls the cylinder extension, and the other controls the cylinder retraction. To operate the Auto Cycle function, move both levers into the detent position. The detent holds the handles in the open position and the cylinder extends.

When cylinder is fully extended, pressure buildup inside the extension section of the valve will kick the lever into neutral and send fluid to the retraction section to retract the cylinder. When the cylinder is fully retracted, pressure buildup inside the retraction section of the valve kicks the lever into neutral and the cylinder will stay in the retracted position until the valve is manually operated again.

The levers may be operated individually to extend or retract the cylinder without using the Auto Cycle function.

Most Wallenstein models are delivered partially assembled in a crate. Some assembly is required. Always check fluids on models which contain fluids before use.

Modern engines are designed to run most efficiently at full governed RPM. Therefore, our engine-powered equipment is designed to run most efficiently at the same RPM. Running engine-powered equipment at less than full throttle is counterproductive. Engines usually require a moment to warm up enough to accept full throttle and load.

It is not feasible to add Auto Cycle to a model that does not already have it.

Three-point hitch models are more economical to purchase, operate and maintain, and are easier to transport around a property and through a bushlot. Their disadvantage is that they require a tractor to operate them.

Trailer models are more easily transportable from site to site. Their disadvantage is that they are more costly to purchase, operate and maintain due to the engine, pump, tires, and lights (if equipped).

The manufacturers of the engines we use all recommend a high quality, detergent mineral oil. Specifics such as viscosity, vary with oil manufacturer and climate. Please see your engine owner’s manual for specificifications and the use of synthetic oils.

The manufacturers of the gasoline engines we use all recommend regular unleaded gasoline, with a minimum octane rating of 87. A maximum of 10% ethanol (E10) is also allowed.

The quality of the fuel is what is important. Always keep the fuel tank clean. Always refill the fuel tank from a clean container using fresh fuel from a reputable, high volume retailer. Please see your engine owner’s manual for specifications.

We use Dexron III Automatic Transmission Fluid. Dexron III does not change thickness with the outside temperature like hydraulic fluid does, resulting in more consistent performance and less possibility of damage to the pump.

The extra hose on the cylinder provides the return fluid with a second route back to the hydraulic tank, as the cylinder retracts. This hose is connected to a normally closed dump valve.

As the cylinder retracts, the pressure used to retract it opens the dump valve providing a second route to tank for the returning oil. Doing this increases the speed of cylinder retraction, therefore reducing cylinder cycle time.

The first requirement is that the saw have 2 bar studs. The bar studs are used to fasten the saw to the mount. We recommend a 24” bar in order to take full advantage of the wood processor's 22” log diameter capacity. The mount is adjustable to accommodate up to a maximum 30” bar length.

The engine versions we use do not have a reduction gearbox. However, most of the engine models we use are available with one. Honda mentions them in the owner’s manuals because the manuals cover all versions of each engine.

The two oil fill holes are in the GX series single-cylinder engines. These engines can be mounted many different ways. Honda has provided two filler holes and two drain plugs to ensure that one of each is accessible.

For the filler holes, the grey cap has the dipstick. The black cap is a plug. The GC engines only have one plug.

Every Wallenstein model is designed to meet all applicable safety standards. Because of our careful design process, we cannot custom build equipment.
