Wallenstein | Heavy Duty Skid Steer Log Splitter
Estimated shipping only — your final shipping cost is confirmed at checkout.
The Wallenstein WX470 is a 20-ton skid steer log splitter with horizontal and vertical splitting positions for handling both routine firewood and large, heavy rounds. Its vertical position lets you work with oversized logs closer to ground level, reducing the need to lift them onto the splitter bed.
With a 24″ split opening, 4″ cylinder, 9″ wedge, and universal quick attach, the WX470 is built for efficient firewood processing with compatible skid steers and compact track loaders. Hydraulic hoses and couplers are included for a straightforward connection to the carrier machine.

Horizontal or Vertical Operation
The WX470 gives you the flexibility to process ordinary firewood horizontally or move into the vertical position when a round is too large or heavy to comfortably lift.
Less Manual Lifting
Vertical splitting keeps large rounds closer to ground level, allowing the machine to handle more of the work during firewood processing.
Uses Carrier Hydraulics
The WX470 runs from the skid steer or compact track loader’s auxiliary hydraulic system, eliminating the separate engine and fuel system used by self-contained splitters.
Built for Everyday Firewood Processing
A 24″ opening, 20 tons of splitting force, and a relatively quick hydraulic cycle make the WX470 a practical setup for regular firewood work.
