THE ACREAGE EQUIPMENT FIELD GUIDE
PTO chipper storage dimensions: folded, assembled and crated
A chipper can need less floor space when folded while becoming taller. Before choosing one for a shed or garage, identify the configuration behind every dimension. A base footprint, shipping package and stored machine describe different boundaries. Compare the whole stored machine with your available space, then resolve any revision or component-position questions with the seller.

THE DECISION IN NUMBERS
Worked storage check: dimension labels change the result
Manufacturer dimensions retain their stated configuration. Space measurements are hypothetical, and subtraction does not establish clearance or a handling method. WC68 axes were checked against the manual drawings. Betstco’s conflicting figures remain unresolved.
Scroll the table sideways on smaller screens.
| Documented example | Dimensions in inches | Hypothetical space or question | What the figures establish |
|---|---|---|---|
| WC68 operating drawing | 75 1/2 L × 54 7/16 W × 67 15/16 H | 60 L × 40 W × 70 H bay | Length and width exceed the bay |
| WC68 stored drawing | 54 5/16 L × 35 W × 69 1/8 H | Same bay | 5 11/16 length, 5 width and 7/8 height remain |
| MX-9900 assembled versus shipping | Manual: 73 L × 41 W × 74 H; page shipping: 54 × 45 × 62 | What is its complete folded size? | Neither entry is labeled complete folded dimensions |
| FH-BX62S page versus linked FH-BX62 manual | Page: 50 L × 52 W × 74 H; manual: 56 L × 50 W × 84 H | 80-inch clear doorway height | Page leaves 6 inches; manual exceeds height by 4 inches |

Start with the state named on the drawing
Woodland Mills provides separate WC68 operating-state and stored-state drawings. WoodMaxx lists MX-9900 assembled dimensions and a smaller baseframe footprint, while its product page separately gives shipping dimensions. Those labels are not interchangeable. The baseframe does not include every overhanging component, and a shipping arrangement does not establish the dimensions of a complete machine in your chosen storage configuration. Request length, width and height in a stated order.
WC68 saves floor space but gains height
In the WC68 Rev C drawings, operating dimensions are 75 1/2 × 54 7/16 × 67 15/16 inches, in length–width–height order. The illustrated stored state is 54 5/16 × 35 × 69 1/8 inches. The stated height therefore increases by 1 3/16 inches. A low shelf can remain the deciding constraint even when the folded machine occupies less floor space. These figures apply to the illustrated component positions.
A storage fold and a service hinge answer different questions
The MX-9900 page identifies a fold-up infeed bin for storage and a hinged hopper for access to the bed knife. A service-access hinge does not itself specify a smaller stored envelope. The manual gives 73 × 41 × 74 inches assembled, but the reviewed specifications do not identify a complete folded length–width–height figure. Ask for that measurement instead of using the page’s 54 × 45 × 62-inch shipping dimensions as a substitute.
Resolve the BX62S height conflict before reserving a bay
Betstco’s FH-BX62S page gives folded dimensions of 50 × 52 × 74 inches. Its currently linked manual’s FH-BX62 column gives 56 × 50 × 84 inches. The manual abbreviation and the supplied revision need confirmation. In the hypothetical 80-inch doorway below, the two height figures lead to opposite results. Keep both on the inquiry; choosing the smaller value would conceal the unresolved question.
Ask what is inside the quoted dimensions
Send the seller your measured clear width, clear height and available parking length. Include the narrowest opening and any shelf, track or overhead obstruction that reduces those measurements. Ask whether the quoted dimensions include hitch projections, discharge components and the PTO shaft, and which configuration the drawing depicts. The table’s unused space is simple dimensional arithmetic; it does not establish handling clearance, an access method or room to operate the machine.
Take these questions with you.
- Can you provide the complete stored length, width and height for the exact delivered revision, with component positions and included projections identified?
- For an FH-BX62S order, which folded-size figure applies: the product page’s 74-inch height or the linked manual’s 84-inch height?
- Are any quoted dimensions shipping-only, baseframe-only or dependent on components being removed rather than a documented storage configuration?
Keep these questions with your exact tractor and attachment details.
