KIOTI NS4710 · PTO WOOD CHIPPERS

KIOTI NS4710 wood chippers: 0.1 hp under WCAP5’s ceiling, 1.3–1.6 over WC88’s floor

The NS4710 sits just inside two limits at once. Its 44.9 gross engine hp is 0.1 under Farmry WCAP5’s 45-engine-hp ceiling, and its PTO power (36.6 synchro, 36.3 HST) clears Woodland Mills WC88’s 35-hp minimum by 1.6 and 1.3. Wallenstein BX72S, which starts at 50 engine hp, is out.

THE DECISION IN NUMBERS

Chipper screens at 36.6 (synchro) / 36.3 (HST) PTO hp and 44.9 gross engine hp

Tractor reference: KIOTI NS4710 and NS4710H, brochure (September 2025), web pages and 2021 manual; Category 1; 2,493 lb at 24 in. (manual; brochure 2,940). The NS4710H web page lists 36.6 PTO hp. Capacity conditions are manufacturer statements, not throughput tests.

Scroll the table sideways on smaller screens.

Sources for this decision table (18)

A tenth under WCAP5

Farmry’s WCAP5 manual gives 15–45 engine hp. KIOTI’s brochure and web page list the NS4710 at 44.9 gross hp; its 2021 manual lists the synchro tractor at 33.6 kW (45 hp). Either way the tractor is at or a fraction under the ceiling, and neither maker says whether the figure is gross or net. Ask Farmry to confirm in writing.

WC88 by about one and a half

Woodland Mills lists WC88 at 35–100+ PTO hp. The synchro NS4710 clears that by 1.6; the NS4710H by 1.3 on the brochure’s 36.3 (1.6 on the web page’s 36.6). Woodland Mills ties full 8-inch logs at full feed to over 60 PTO hp, so WC88 would rely on its hydraulic feed on this tractor.

WoodMaxx’s mechanical-feed option

WoodMaxx rates WM-8M from 19 PTO hp, with full 8-inch softwood capacity at 50+ PTO hp, and feeds at a fixed 58 ft/min with a stop. It mounts on Category 1 or 2. The comparison below sets it against WCAP5, the lighter gravity-feed option this tractor is just inside.

Lift: 2,493 or 2,940 lb

KIOTI’s manual lists 2,493 lb at 24 inches behind the lift point and 2,940 lb at the lift point. The September 2025 brochure prints 2,940 lb with a footnote placing it 24 inches aft of the hitch, and the NS4710 web page lists 2,493. This site uses 2,493. WC88 (900 lb) and WM-8M (775 lb) are well under either figure.

Wallenstein hydraulic-feed BXR chippers

Wallenstein’s current pages rate the 5-inch BX52RI (30–55 engine hp, Category I). 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 KIOTI NS4710’s 44.9 engine hp is inside the BX52RI’s range on both the page and the manual. Its published lift at 24 inches, 2,493 lb, carries the 845-lb BX52RI with 1,648 lb to spare. Wallenstein lists no price; ask a dealer.
