[@BuildALotAcres]

Ross I am seriously considering one of these units. Do you have any buyers remorse? The Woodmaxx and Woodland Mill units are rated for 8” and are cheaper than the 3.5” rated Wallenstein.

[@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.

[@JelenOutDoors]

Wallenstein make quality stuff. I have been debating on purchasing a wood chipper.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@sarahsapien8847]

I just bought the same chipper. The pto shaft is too long. The tractor end has a quick connect collar. The chipper end of the shaft doesn't have the quick connect collar. Do you know how to remove the shaft from the chipper?

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@sarahsapien8847]

@@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. 🙂

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? Don't know how I missed this video Ross!!! Man the Wallenstein is a beast. It was some clogged up with shavings though eh!!! But it handled that big stick pretty good. It was pretty big and it chewed through almost all of it. And it didn't even blink with all those evergreens!! Great attachment. Thanks for sharing and take care!!!

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@jeffherron4701]

I personally spent the extra money on the BXM32 very glad I did. Worth every dollar.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

Good evening Sir, I guess it like a any types of firearms ( double check if their is a cartridges in the magazine or in the chamber ) before you use it or carried any tasks 🥴🧐👌 Great Wood Chipper action Sir 💪👌😉 Cheers 🍻

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

@@RossOnTheLand 👌😉🍻

[@JohnBorgfjord]

They say not to recommend cedar sawdust or shavings in the garden, and I don’t think it’s good for chickens either. You can’t use cedar on makeshift outback, toilet 5 gallon pail for spreading on top. The one cup of shavings you can use can be anything but cedar. But it’s great around a mulch bed flowers or wherever.Smells nice by the house for mulching trees, shrub beds.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@Stu2366593]

Your review is helpful as the unit I am looking at (a BXM32) would have the shredder also. I live south of you, near Metcalfe, ON. Which dealer did you end up going with?

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

Wallenstein makes great stuff. Right up there with the older Danuser stuff. (I say older, because I have no experience with their new gear.)

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@randomstuffwithjoe]

Do you think the Kubota BX1880 would run this chipper?

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

That was much better the second time around. Pretty nice unit Ross. Great job on the camera angles. Nice shots. Full watch and a thumbs up. See you for the next one.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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!

[@tdavies4127]

Anyone who uses pliers on a bolt rather than a wrench shouldn't be on KZbin

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@skeets6060]

WHat size tractor ?

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@skeets6060]

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

[@RossOnTheLand]

Yes, 17.7HP. :)

[@HuckThis1971]

Brother in law got a woodland mills one to put on his b26. Power feed is a nice feature. Chipped a lot of branches already.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@HuserHelpers]

What is the plan for the car on the lift? Seems like it is always there

[@RossOnTheLand]

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!!

[@HomeWithTheBuffingtons]

Nice one Ross! Way to test the limits of that machine. Nice video.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@MannistoCay]

I love my chipper too. Don't know what I'd without it. Good job Ross!

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@HillsideAcres]

I havent had any chipper clogging issues yet, but i would favor the easy access opening of the Wallenstein over the design on my woodmaxx. I cant remember if you had a second set of knives for this but i would recommend having two sets to rotate one out to be sharpened when needed and the other to keep you working.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

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

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

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

[@RossOnTheLand]

That's not user friendly unfortunately.

[@RockhillfarmYT]

My frontier Chipper clogged up on me just like that the second time I used it. That safety pin is a good feature

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@RCPSU4]

I'll admit I'm partial towards the next model up with the shredder opening. My thing with that particular model is the ability to devour leaves and other small debris.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@rockandrattleretreat5830]

I've never had my Wallenstein chipper shredder clog up yet. Keep it at about 540 rpms at the PTO.

[@RossOnTheLand]

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

[@Vaessen13]

This is probably the best video on KZbin demonstrating this Wallenstein wood chipper. Perfectly shows how it works plus several troubleshooting issues with resolutions. A lot of people have told me that not having an auto-feed is a major issue but you clearly show in your videos that doesn't hamper the wood chipping and it has a type of auto-feed using gravity and the design of the product. Amazing video Ross, I am convinced to get one for my BX 2680 now. Absolutely incredible!!!

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

Having my Saturday morning coffee and watching 2 BXs have breakfast 👍🏻, nice pergola Ross, looks like a nice spot 👍🏻. Have a great weekend 🙂🙋🏼‍♂️👍🏻

[@TimothyNewton]

I noticed in your earlier videos your toolbox was on the inside of the ROPS, now it’s on the outside of the ROPS. I am looking to add a toolbox to my BX and wanted to know how how you mounted yours, do you have a video on that?

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Ross I needed to see someone doing some chipping. I know what you did on the land 😂 I love chipping wood!!! It is amazing how a big pile get turned into a small pile. It never gets old 🚜💨💡😁👍

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.

[@GardenTractorBoy]

That seems like a great shedder, it did a great job. Very cool that you tested and found the limitations

[@RossOnTheLand]

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.
