THE SHORT ANSWER

Is WCAP5 worth a closer look?

A lower-priced gravity-feed option with a wider 5 × 9-inch throat. Unlike the PRO, the current manual specifies engine horsepower; do not compare the two using a single unlabeled HP number.

The seller confirms the exact setup, current price and delivery. No field test or manufacturer-confirmed pairing is claimed.

THE BUYING PERSPECTIVE

Know before you order.

  • This catalog checks the documented 540 rpm option. The manual also lists 1000 rpm; confirm the exact driveline and operating setup with Farmry.
  • Current manual Rev1.5 p19 explicitly labels Engine HP Range 15–45; p20 lists rated 540–1000 RPM and 412 lb with PTO shaft.
  • Product-page maximum diameter is qualified by its FAQ: 5 inches wet/fresh, 4 inches dry.
  • Confirm exact tractor model, transmission, model year and manual implement limits.
  • Check three-point geometry, actual lift capacity at the implement load center, front ballast and axle limits.
  • Check PTO shaft length, overlap, shielding and clearance across permitted hitch travel; quick hitches change geometry.
