John Deere 4075R · PTO WOOD CHIPPERS
At 60 PTO hp, the 4075R is 10 over Woodland Mills WC68’s 50-hp ceiling and meets the 50+ hp lines WoodMaxx ties to full capacity on its WM-8M, WM-8H, MX-8800 and MX-9900. Wallenstein BX72S (50–85 engine hp) is inside by 10.7 under its ceiling. Woodland Mills WC88 is inside its 35-hp minimum and exactly at its 60-hp full-feed line.

| Chipper | Published requirement | On 60 PTO / 74.3 engine hp | Capacity line |
|---|---|---|---|
| WoodMaxx MX-9900 | 25 PTO hp minimum; full 9-inch at “50+ HP” | Inside | Met |

| WoodMaxx WM-8M / WM-8H | 19 PTO hp minimum; full 8-inch at 50+ | Inside | Met |
| Wallenstein BX72S | 50–85 engine hp | Inside (10.7 under max) | — |
| Woodland Mills WC88 | 35 PTO hp minimum; over 60 for full 8-inch at full feed | Inside (+25) | Exactly 60, not over |
| Wallenstein BX72RI | 45–85 engine hp (page); hydraulic feed; 7-in. | BX72RI inside | 7 in. |
| Woodland Mills WC68 | 20–50 PTO hp | 10 over: excluded | — |
| Wallenstein BX52S | 22–55 engine hp | 19.3 over: excluded | — |

Woodland Mills rates WC68 at 20–50 PTO hp, and Wallenstein BX52S stops at 55 engine hp. The 4075R’s 60 PTO and 74.3 engine hp put it over both, and over the 45-PTO-hp small chippers. Its brochure and the May 2026 order book agree on 60, so there is no document question.
WoodMaxx lists its 8-inch WM-8M and WM-8H from 19 PTO hp and ties full 8-inch capacity to 50+ hp; MX-8800 and MX-9900 tie full capacity to “50+ HP” without a basis. At 60 PTO and 74.3 engine hp, the 4075R meets those lines on any reading. MX-8800 and MX-9900 add an operator-controlled hydrostatic feed. The comparison below sets MX-8800 against Wallenstein’s BX72S.
Woodland Mills ties WC88’s full 8-inch logs at full feed to over 60 PTO hp; the 4075R is exactly 60. Wallenstein BX72S (50–85 engine hp) is a 7-inch gravity chipper that is inside with 10.7 hp of room.
The 4R lists 2,500 lb at 24 inches and 3,130 at the link ends, Category 1. MX-9900 is about 816 lb dry, MX-8800 about 772, WC88 900 and BX72S 728; all are under the rating, and the 4075R’s 4,828-lb cab weight helps stability.
Wallenstein’s current pages rate the 7-inch BX72RI (45–85 engine hp, Category I and II). Two hydraulic rollers pull material in at a set rate, and P3 PULSE reverses them when the rotor slows; they need 3–6 gpm from a rear remote or Wallenstein’s PTO-driven power pack. The John Deere 4075R’s 74.3 engine hp is inside the BX72RI’s range on both the page and the manual. Its published lift at 24 inches, 2,500 lb, carries the 1,300-lb BX72RI with 1,200 lb to spare. Wallenstein lists no price; ask a dealer.
