Watch this before you buy the Wallenstein BX36s Wood Chipper 

Hi Jeff, I agree if I would have known about the shredder at the time, I would have as well. 👍

I'm extremely happy with the BX36s. Simple strong and works very well.

I am amazed at how well it works. It's a simple design, well built, and is perfect for my needs. Thank you for watching!

That's what I'm learning as well, wow such an important tool for property management. Thank you for watching.

Thank you. Yes best to know it's limits and work up the that. So much fun running it. So impressed with Wallenstein.

That's good to know. Thank you. We use mulch mainly for the woodchip road, and most of these trees are dead ash. Have a great week.

I was amazed at how well this design worked without auto feed! I have no issues with it pulling in the entire log or brush. I am not sure if others use the same cutter design as Wallenstein does but as you can see, it works great without the complexity.

Thanks Mike. It did get plugged because I didn't have the rpms up high enough. If I had had them up, it wouldn't have clogged. I'm very impressed with how it handled the evergreen. Yes. Thanks for watching, have a good weekend

Oh nice! Ya future me would like one with a feeder, and a shredder, but for my size of property, this one works well. Thank you for watching.

And I haven't heard of the older gear! 😀 Thank you for watching. I'm going to spend some time looking up Danuser today!

Yes very true. Thanks again for watching and yes I really like this chipper.

@@RossOnTheLand 👌😉🍻

Hello, thanks for reaching out. I have no remorse whatsoever. I am so happy with how well the Wallenstein BX36s works. I like how simple it is. With only the spinning cutting wheel there is not much that will go wrong. My biggest fear was the lack of mechanical feeder to pull branches inward, but they worked magic with the chute angle because this thing has no issues pulling 20 foot branches and twigs all by itself. It's perfectly sized for the Kubota BX23s, and exactly for the type of wood on my property. Let me know if there is anything more specific you'd like to know, I'd be happy to help out.

Thank you, very much. Nice boost after our collaboration James and Luc.

Thank you, this chipper has reversable cutters, but I think I should get another set to swap out. Thank you very much for watching.

Yea, my neighbors DR is a total fight to access the knives. If it clogs, it takes twice as long to clear.

Once I open the hinged shoot top, I can access the knives from there. Easy to do.

@@RossOnTheLand Yea, the Dr has a Tina window, then a crap ton of bolts to take off the full panel.

That's not user friendly unfortunately.

I 100% agree. I too would have liked a shedder, I didn't know about it when I bought this one. But it does great for my needs. Cheers and thanks for watching and commenting

Hello, glad I could help. I deal with B&T McFarlane. They have been extremely helpful. Ask for Bruce Hayter in sales, he's great, or Jack McFarlane. It's a family run business and Jack is very knowledgeable. I didn't think I wanted the shredder but thinking back I should have gotten that option. Nice to meet a local supporter. Have a great week ahead and let me know if there is anything else I can help with. I have a full playlist of chipper vids available as well. Thank you.

Hello, there should be a small press pin on the side of the shaft to remove it from the chipper. Also you can slide the PTO shaft apart in its center to make to lighter and easier to maneuver. And lastly, on the chipper there is an oval shaped access hole that you are supposed to use to grease the bearing, and I often use that to look through to undo the PTO from the chipper. I know I've shown it in a few videos but they'll be like finding a needle in a haystack Let me know if you'd like more info, I can even do a short video of it if that would help.

@@RossOnTheLand thanks for taking the time to reply. I sort of remember finding an area that would push in but it didn't seem to release the shaft. It's a little too dark to try again tonight but I'll try again in the morning. I would really appreciate a video demonstration or any advice you can offer. Thanks again, Ross. 🙂

Ok sounds good. I'll see if I can put together a video tomorrow. Just push that springy button a little harder

This is my son's problem child winter car that is in constant need of "attention". It breaks down whenever you look at it! So he Thanks you for noticing.... As that'll probably make something else break on it haha!!

They definitely like being at optimum rpms for sure. Thank you for watching!

Yes it is. I'm very happy with the build quality and thoughtful features. I think I will weld on a handle for opening the cutting wheel so it can be opened without tools. Thanks for watching have a great rest of your week and weekend.

Yes it's best to understand what the capabilities are, so you can get the most of your machines without breaking things. Thank you for watching.

I know! I'm genuinely excited watching it chip the wood! So satisfying getting rid of all the piles around the property! Thank you for watching.

Thank you, it's going to be a busy weekend. Have a great weekend my friend

@@RossOnTheLand I think it’s the wedding you were talking about? Good luck, at least it’s nice and sunny ☀️👍🏻

Yes it is, beautiful day for it.

Hello, from what I can see on Wallenstein's website their requirements for the 3.5" capacity is 12 HP-30 HP required, PTO, Cat I, 3 PTH From what I can see on the 1880 this should in theory work. But you may want to contact your Kubota dealer, and also Wallenstein to verify. Even if it's under powered, it would still work but may clog or struggle with thicker hard wood logs.... Thanks for watching, and let me know if you require any more information.

Thank you for watching, and noticing the ammo box. I do not have one specifically about the toolbox, but I will definitely film one this week for you. It uses the existing holes through the ROPS, using U bolts that drilled through the ammo box. I welded a steel frame to the back of the box to give it more rigidity, and am able to mount it inside or outside depending if I needed more clearance when plowing in winter, or space to sit in the backhoe's seat.

My tractor is a Kubota BX23s. Thank you. Let me know if you have any more questions

@@RossOnTheLand So that is what about 18 PTO hp?

Yes, 17.7HP. :)

Thank you! Haha. We love the shop, I love that my son loves the shop more so he can do all the maintenance!!!

If you think that's bad, go check out my other videos. :)
