THE BUYING PERSPECTIVE
Know before you order.
- The manufacturer states 35–100+ PTO hp. It does not give a finite upper limit. Confirm use above the stated reference range with Woodland Mills.
- Full 8-inch logs at full feed speed require over 60 PTO hp, per the manufacturer; this differs from the 35 PTO hp operating minimum.
- Use 540 rpm at the tractor PTO. The over-1,100 rpm figure describes the flywheel, not the tractor input.
- Check the exact tractor implement-weight limits, lift geometry, front ballast and driveline length. No tractor pairing has been approved.
- The page and manual describe different hopper-mouth heights; the 8 x 8-inch cutting throat is consistent. Confirm external geometry if clearance is critical.
