4.2 MACHINE
COMPONENTS
The Wallenstein Wood Processor consists of a winch mounted in a frame to winch logs into the log lead in chute and
then position the log on the log loader chute, up to the log length guide. The hydraulic winch control lever engages the
winch motor to wind or unwind the rope. The winch control lever is spring-loaded and will return to its NEUTRAL position
when the lever is released. The winch gear lever on the winch engages and disengages the gear on the winch drum.
Disengaging the drum allows it to "freewheel" so the rope is easily pulled out.
The operator uses the
saw guide to safely
align the chain saw
to cut the log to the
desired length. When
the log is cut, it rolls
onto the splitting cra-
dle.
Engaging the hy-
draulic splitter levers
causes the hydraulic
cylinder to push the
log through the 4 - way
wedge.
The Push block loca-
tor indicates to the op-
erator where the push
block is at all times.
Power to drive the
machine is provided
through the gas en-
gine and hydraulic
pump.
