The Wallenstein BX-S Series PTO wood chippers are designed for efficient, high-throughput wood processing using a gravity feed system that naturally draws material into the cutting chamber. Built for fence line maintenance, rural properties, and forestry applications, these PTO-driven chippers prioritize mechanical simplicity, reliability, and consistent chip output across a wide range of operating conditions.
An oversized heavy-duty disc rotor provides the rotational mass needed to maintain steady chipping momentum, allowing branches, brush, and irregular material to be processed smoothly without hydraulic feed components. This design reduces maintenance complexity while delivering dependable performance over long operating hours. Depending on model, the BX-S Series supports branch diameters ranging from approximately 3.5 inches up to 10 inches and is compatible with tractors spanning roughly 12 to 120 horsepower.
Key design elements focus on usability and durability:
- Gravity feed intake optimized for natural self-feeding
- Heavy-duty disc rotor engineered for consistent cutting momentum
- Dual reversible rotor knives (four per rotor) to extend blade life
- Wide hopper and infeed openings for easy handling of brush and limbs
- Integrated twig breaker system to refine smaller debris
- Shearbolt-protected PTO drivetrain to prevent overload damage
The discharge system is fully adjustable, featuring a 360-degree rotating chute with a positional deflector to direct chips precisely where needed. A fold-up feed hopper allows for more compact transport and storage when the chipper is not in use.
Built on a rugged steel chassis, the BX-S Series is designed for long-term service in demanding environments. PTO direct-drive operation (540–1000 RPM depending on configuration) delivers consistent power transfer, while Category I and II three-point hitch compatibility—including iMatch™ and Quick Hitch systems—ensures straightforward tractor hookup. Overall unit weight ranges from approximately 395 lbs to 1,143 lbs depending on model, balancing stability with practical portability.
