I Got a Bigger Log Loader Trailer (Wallenstein LXT115 First Look)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 มิ.ย. 2024
- After getting into the world of log loader trailers with the Wallenstein LXT95 for the last while, the time has come for the next size up. Here is my new Wallenstein LXT115 with hydraulic winch. This log loader trailer doubles the carrying capacity while increasing boom reach and grapple opening size. To sum things up, this thing is BIG. I'm looking forward to introducing all of you to this new log loader trailer which I"ll be using from now on to move logs and other material all around. Glad you're all here for this exciting introduction.

I saw you eyeballing that log trailer at the show. I had a feeling. Nice
Nice upgrade for bigger, longer logs! Looks a lot more sturdy and smoother operation, very nice! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Thanks Mark!
Hi Sandy. Great new log loader trailer. Go bigger or go home. 😂
I'm with ya there Tom!
More companies need to give you tubers credit ..... I enjoy seeing products reviewed/used by real people I've watched for years ....
I appreciate all your support over the years
Sandy ...... good job good mascine.... Keep up the good job. Jesper
, from Denmark 😊
Excellent piece of equipment sandy for hauling more heavy loads down to the sawmill less trips save you lots of time ❤😊😮
Absolutely Todd
Geez Sandy. I had no idea you had such monster sized logs on your property. I am so used to see you milling up match stick and tooth pick sized red pine for you lumber. That new trailer is certainly a stout machine.
Yeah there's some big trees here that I don't mill much just because I have so many red pines that need thinning.
Enjoy your videos, Sandy. Appreciate your sharing about the bigger log lifter. This probably means wider materials produced on the sawmill. Looking forward to seeing new projects. Blessings neighbor 🇨🇦🇺🇸👍 continuing to pray for your safety, strength, wisdom, health and success in Our Redeemer's Name. ☝️🙏🙌💪🎯
Thank you for all your support
Pretty impressive, Gongrats!
Thanks for that!
Man what a nice trailer. I have a home made on and off the road trailer but has an electric winch to lift logs on or raise the dump. Was perfect for my L4740 but I sold that tractor and bought a new L2502. Did not get to use the L2502 yet because here in East Coast Canada we got a hug winter storm 100 cm. Guess I won't be using it anytime soon.
highway towable is a huge advantage! Nice grab!
I'm with ya there. That was a big bonus
This is too funny....I saw in your last video that you were pawing at that thing with a bit of (it's bigger than mine) envy !!
I can't blame you....a truck is never big enough, a tool is never powerful enough, a motorcycle is never fast enough. CONGRATS!
You're right on with that. Thanks for coming along for the video!
A much bigger picker upper and loader. Much safer and more versatile and a better tool for milling purposes. Good choice all around and like to see the winch do it's thing. Nice video and sure a lot of loggers out there are envious.
I'm really looking forward to increasing the size and amount I can carry for sure
Nice upgrade! It looks great behind your tractor, congratulations sir.
Thanks Jeff!
Congrats! New toys!
Enjoy all your projects.
Thanks for coming along for them!
Sandy very good presentation
Thanks Ernie
Sweet log loader !!!
Thanks Russell!
Dude! you had me worried when I saw the short, Glad you have this bigger "DAWG" the other was just a sample Congrats! I lift up my cup "Here Here" John from GA
Cheers John!
Congrats Sandy to get to use the LXT115 Log Loader. it is a Breast of a Machine..
I'm really excited for you. The original seemed a bit small for the scope of your operation. Hats off to Wallenstein, seems like a great company.
Thank you! Should be a great addition
Lots of accessories are available for that trailer. Congrats on your new toy
Thanks Corey. Will be lots of fun
Hi Sandy!!😀😀
Nice trailer!!👍👍
It's almost too nice to take into the woods.
Take care my friend!!😀😀💚💚
Logger Al
WOW way better for you congrats Sandy
Thanks!
New nickname. Sawing with Santa because Sandy has a lot of toys. LOL
Hohoho
Looking forward to seeing some real use of that, especially during the winter time. Also when ready hearing the review of both and your thinking of buying the smaller one first and then switching. No hurry though, think that bit through. But I bet a bunch of people will find your conclusions useful.
Trying to think back how my uncle did this with a tractor 30 years back. He must have borrowed some equipment. The mad lad spent about 5 years cutting firewood to fill a 3 or 4 wide garage shed up to the rafters in his early 50's. He wanted enough for his lifetime. Ended up overshooting by a few years, but my cousins son didn't have to think about firewood while renovating. There's a life lesson here, you'll never regret making extra firewood.
I am much happier with this loader Sandy as the controls are a lot smoother and so safer for you. I seen significant improvement over the other machine which are both very capable yet your talents as a operator are still in learning stage. I just know for sure that I was too hard on you for that other machine was not ideal for what you were doing. It had its place but lets just be honest, if it is not working with you then its not as safe.. Please don't ask how I know... lets say I wear all of those scars and have yet to feel safe around a green operator who set a log on me, breaking my back, crushing several ribs and put me in a chopper headed for Providence in Seattle Washington and nearly died. I got hurt just after the age of twenty one, home from Nam where I might of got killed just to have my home folk take me out for seventeen months. Times were different as far as doctoring went and so different things they do now were not available to me then. I am going to go off of Hospice currently and go to the surgeon again. I only have one kidney and its been damaged from a whole host of different reasons. That means my body could go septic quite easily since I also have Lymphoma and that friend is worse case scenario for anyone who has that problem. I apologize as my memory is just horrible and so can't bring to mind just how you locate those ball hitches that have the hydraulic valve in them reading how much the tongue weight is. It slides into the receiver on the tow rig and doesn't need any special hoses or other as it is self contained and also affordable. They are available for fifth wheel also. You do have to go over to the gauge to see how much the weight is as its not a electric mount in cab style.... I suppose that might be available as well but since your standing right next to the hitch, you would be looking right down on it making it a no brainer.... an you can place it on a tractor as well.... no limits in other words
Thanks for coming along for the video Morgan. Hope you have a good day
When I saw this in the NY video. I knew you got something bigger
Lol😂
hahah
Nice job of comparing! should work great for you.
Thanks for that. I"m looking forward to it for sure
With this new trailer, the longer, taller grapple is going to take a little adjustment in loading logs on your sawmill!! You will probably want to stage the trailer farther away to be able to swing in under the roof, with the boom straight I would think!! With the extra power, that should be no problem. Always nice to have the extra power, or length, or size, when you need it! Looks like a nice upgrade/ upsize!
Think you're right about the distance Tim. Will be a good piece of kit with some learning to come for sure
Great video! Really enjoyed the comparison between the 95 and 115.
Thanks Terry. Appreciate your support
Bigger isn’t always better but in this case I think it is. Oh, boys and their toys to make work just a bit more fun. Nice Sandy. 😊😊😊
This should get lots of use. I'm a sucker for the log loader trailers
Verynice upgrade Sandy proud for you!
Thanks Randy
Morning Sandy. Nice upgrade.
Good Morning!
Congrats Sandy, nice overview.
Thanks Marc!
This log trailer would be really nice if a man was cutting cedar logs to haul to the mill or to Hall Home the more lifting and hauling capacity makes it really nice great video Sandy
Nice new machine Sandy, great Video.
Thanks TJ
Well it ought to handle everything you need it to do. Have fun. Good vid. Thanks.
Thanks!
Nice Sandy! Congratulations on the new log loader.
Thank you!
Good morning, Sandy! I figured something was coming after watching the short. Beefier addition. Have fun and be safe. Greetings from Peterborough.
Thanks Ken! Hope you're doing well and enjoying your weekend
Nice trailer I am excited for you hope you get many years of enjoyment
Thanks for that!
Very nice upgrade, this will improve your game.
Thanks!
Congrats on the new machine. Your continued growth is fun to watch. You must have a very forgiving wife also. Love to have herd what she said when you told her you were upgrading your log carrier.
Beauty mate all the best Andy from Australia
Thanks Andy!
Great looking grapple trailer Sandy. I think it will work out well around your place 🚜
Wow Sandy I am seriously jealous, you have the best toys.... As hard as you work clearly a needed upgrade. Even if it is not new it looks great and I like how it matches your tractor.
Thank you. Will be a great upgrade I’m thinking
That's some big stuff you're messing with there 😮
Sure has some paneer behind it
Very nice tool.
Thanks!
That’s great! I like the colour . You will like it,, I’ve used mine a fair bit now and it works great.
Great to hear that!
I’d love to add a trailer like that one day!
Very nice
Thanks Myles
Your newer log loader is more versatile and user friendly, good choice.
Thanks Bryan
Very nice Sandy, of course you needed to upgrade after going to that logging show, congratulations
I was hoping to upgrade to a full on 700,000 US tree felling machine but I was told it wasn't in budget haha
very nice indeed
Thanks Joe
Wow! That was a nice sized log it lifted! And the trailer seemed to be stable the entire time. Highway use is a plus if you need to go and collect some logs offsite. Something like that would be useful in my neck of the woods!
Hi Marvin. I'm looking forward to being able to grab a few log loads when people give them away from time to time as well
And it matches the tractor! Lol
I do like the colour!
With this bigger lag hauler your going to need to upgrade your mill to handle the increase in production. Congratulations!
I think rear stabilizers of some sort would be nice but overall what a nice machine. Thanks for the video
Good morning Sandy that is a good improvement when you were putting lo g logs on the other one seam to more restricted than this one also seam like the hydrolic is faster and you have better control with this one also. well have fun and great day
Thank you for coming along for the new log loader
looks to be a better buy for your jobs
Thanks Rodney!
Looks faster
It's quite the unit!
That machine would even work with B.C. size trees. I think you will be very happy with the upgrade.
I'm looking forward to getting some miles on it for sure
what you need most is bigger logs
I've got some big logs (24-30") but I will leave those last since I have so many red pines that need to be harvested
good video and job really nice up grade you will gets lots of use out of it. i would get a ton truck to pull it on road you may want to sell logs with all the wild fires i am sure logs will go up in price.thats the one i would have got. take care, be safe and well.
Thanks John. I think a bigger truck will be in my future for sure
Nice loader looks like it works very well I think it would try to get the electric break's set up to work with the tractor breaks. Great instrutionnal video!
That would ideal for sure. May look into a brake controller for the tractor
Have a look at three point hitch ,receiver hitch , handy as all get out ,also referred to as trailer mover .
Thanks for that I’ll check it out
Sandy, with larger/heavier logs with this machine, you are moving significantly MORE mass, thus more momentum with the object in motion. You're used to the smaller machine so go a little slower with the hydraulics. Take your time, buddy...................
Absolutely. Hope you're well Carl!
That's a beautiful cabin your making. I've been watching your videos. I've been thinking about getting this trailer. I'm in ontario. Can you please tell me if I need a safety on my truck and trailer. It's for personal use. I asked the company once and got no answer. Thank you for all your work. God bless
New trailer looks nice Sandy....I sell between 60-80 full cord of firewood every year. I am looking for a trailer similar to this for my sawmill also, but was wondering if I could use the grapple to load firewood into my dump trailer? I store my cut firewood on pallets to keep it clean and dry, so using a rock bucket is out of the question for me. I was hoping the grapple would grip enough to help me in loading my trailer? Your comment please?
OMG I just seen this video.....that is definitely big boy toys..at first it will be a little challenging..but I am sure after a bit you will be able to pic the teeth of a skeeter with it
It looks like a great piece of equipment that will serve you well for many years to come. Blessings to you in Jesus name, amen.
Thank you!
and I thought you would buy that log splitter with the elevator first lol
Who knows what's coming in the future haha
I seen you looking at this pretty hard on the other video.i thought to myself he's gonna have that one , I'll bet.
hahah
Thanks Sandy - I enjoy your videos. Are you sponsored by Wallenstein? Not sure if YT is your main source of income or not…doesn’t matter, I’ll keep watching either way
Good to have you along for the videos! This log loader trailer will be a piece of equipment I pay for
Sandy my 46 year old son two days ago was checking front diff axle housing on a shear on his logging job. the vent tube was blocked and when the pulled the plug to check it had so much pressure, he and another young man caught the worst of the pressure. he will be out work of his job for two weeks. 2nd deg. burns on his hands because of soft gloves and on his belly . What I am trying to say is be ware of checking fluids when worked hard. all machines has to have vents but can stop up. you prob. know this. sorry for long preaching just passing things that could be.
Sorry to hear about your son Rodney. That's a great lesson for me to check. Thanks for that
i have a log loader like yours! different brand, got rid of that noisy motor and hooked it directly to my tractor hydraulic,
Hi Pat. That would be a great setup you've got. Main reason I want to keep the small engine on it is it allows me to go on the road with the trailer and pickup logs when I don't have my tractor attached
Nicely done Sandy. Gotta get me one of those! What is maximum net load. You might have mentioned it but if you did I missed it
Hi Howard. The trailer can hold 11500lbs of logs
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼………………………………………………………When I saw the short of the other trailer leaving, I knew that something better HAD to be in the works!
It was a hard decision but I think this will be best
I was suspecting a forwarder from the NY expo.
@joduval I sure would like one of those haha
Otheren some ugly logs awesome trailer glad you didn't get rid of the trailer congratulations sandy awesome. Only thing people will need to remember don't forget to put your pins back in when you take it on the road cause those post will jump up out of their pockets cause I seen it happen on log trucks tks for sharing sandy again congratulations 😊
Great reminder for me there David about the pins. Thanks for that one!
Wondering if your tractor has a trailer brake receptacle? Your other trailer had surge brakes that helped going down hills. Might get dicey on muddy downhill trailes.. especially if you have a load in bucket on da tractor...i like the highway tires and such...adds alot of versatility....
For sure. I don't have a brake controller on this tractor so may have to look into this for the tractor
I have the LXT115. I bought it because it was on and off road capable. It’s a decent log trailer. For me- I wish it could handle 16 foot logs and have a longer boom with an extension. I’m not sure if I’m going to keep it or sell it- TBD.
Hey Richard. Yeah can imagine the bigger the trailer you can get the better for the 16'.
Hi Sandy. At the equipment show, I noticed you touched one of the "wings" on a loader. That made me begin to wonder....... I noticed that you have a tie down point on the rear. I have seen where some manufacturers allow folks to try out a machine for some time before they decide to buy it or not. Is 11' the maximum length your mill will take? If it isn't, I imagine this loader could carry the max length to the mill. Have good days!
Hey there! Real nice log loader trailer for sure. There's tie down points on the front and back end of the trailer for strapping down the logs which is nice. The sawmill will cut up to just under 17'. I'd imagine I could fit that on this log loader trailer.
Sandy you’re a sly dog I thought you’d really goofed up getting rid of that log loader and then you get a bigger one. Good job very happy for you and jealous.
Hey Rex! Glad you liked the video and thanks for coming along for the video. I don't know how I'd ever get rid of a log loader trailer for good (unless a massive forwarder followed me home haha)
I have enjoyed your channel for a long time now and really love the sawmill videos and the project videos but it seems that here lately your videos are just one infomercial after another.
There was a time that I immediately gave a "thumbs up" to your videos before even watching them but I cannot do that now.
This is your channel and I expect you to do what is best for you, I am simply giving some personal feedback.
I will continue to watch your videos' just not necessarily all of them.
Thanks for coming along for the videos. It can be difficult to juggle what topics suit everyone as you can imagine with some liking the detailed spec videos, others liking build videos, wood splitting videos, mechanical repair videos etc. Thank you for the feedback and coming along for the videos.
Nice upgrade but are you sure it will operate under your sawshed? I imagine the grapple might be taller as well as wider. Hopefully, everything still fits comfortably.
Good question Robert. I'm thinking it should work out with a bit more practice
Very nice machine, can I ask, when you attached the blue saw to the Lewis winch, did you need to purchase the direct mount kit from the Lewis winch folks or did you just buy the one needed saw sprocket adapter from a saw dealer?
Thanks, they want $130 for the kit and I don't know if I need the kit or not.
I have the same saw and winch as you. Cheers from Nova Scotia.
Sandy, what was the overall lift capacity on the crane, let's say if your close to a log and don't have to extend all the way out? I'm in the market for one now but I really need 2,000 or so lift capacity.
Nice .... upgrade in the getter done department. Are you setting up in log size? I'm just wondering.
Good question. I've got a bunch of red pines to still thin but will be using other log sizes when they're available
Hey, have you had a chance to take this trailer on the road behind a truck? I'm really interested in one of these, but I need to be able to run the highway some and definitely roads often. I'm curious if loaded with logs, would it tow at 65mph well?
Good question. I have driven it on the highway doing around 60mph but it was empty. One thing I noted was since it doesn't have suspension it does tend to bounce. I think if I were to be hauling logs on the highway regularly I'd look more for a trailer with suspension
@sawingwithsandy thanks for the response. For the price point this one is at, it's hard to bat an eye. I might have to deal with staying off highways as much as possible. Appreciate it.
Just want to know: Why a gasoline engine and not a pto-pump or hydraulics straight from the tractor? No criticism just curiosity 😁.
Could you get exExtension put on loader
Can a half ton truck pull this?
You just have to watch how much payload you put in the trailer. I’d tow it with a 1/2 ton
Eastern snob?????
