Kubota M5-091 wood chippers: BX102S, not BX72S

Wallenstein rates BX72S at 50–85 engine hp and BX102S at 80–120, and the Kubota M5-091’s 92.5 gross hp is 7.5 over the first and inside the second. WoodMaxx’s four chippers, with no published maximum, fit too.

Why BX72S is out

Wallenstein states BX72S’s range in engine horsepower. The M5-091’s 92.5 gross hp is 7.5 over it. Its 76 PTO hp would be inside, but this site screens a limit on the basis the maker states.

BX102S

Wallenstein’s 10-inch BX102S runs 80–120 engine hp on a Category II hitch only, gravity-fed, at 1,143 lb. The M5-091’s 92.5 gross hp sits inside it, so the M5-091 trades BX72S for its larger sibling. Confirm the pins, the PTO shaft for 540 or 1,000 rpm, and front ballast for its weight.

BX72S or MX-9900

WoodMaxx MX-9900 (9-inch, hydrostatic feed) lists 25 PTO hp minimum and 50+ for full capacity, with no maximum. The comparison below sets it against BX72S, which fits smaller utility tractors.

No published maximum

WoodMaxx publishes minimums and a 50+ full-capacity line but no maximum, so this site does not exclude the M5-091. Its 76 PTO hp is 26 over that line; ask which shear bolt or slip clutch the PTO shaft carries and whether it is rated for this tractor.

Category II

Kubota lists a Category II hitch with telescopic lower link ends. Category 1-only attachments such as Woodland Mills WC88 and Land Pride FM2560 would need bushings or a quick hitch approved in writing; this site screens them out.

Wallenstein hydraulic-feed BXR chippers

Wallenstein’s current pages rate the 10-inch BX102RI (75–120 engine hp, Category II). Two hydraulic rollers pull material in at a set rate, and P3 PULSE reverses them when the rotor slows; they need 4–8 gpm from a rear remote or Wallenstein’s PTO-driven power pack. The Kubota M5-091’s 92.5 engine hp is inside the BX102RI’s range on both the page and the manual. Its published lift at 24 inches, 4,630 lb, carries the 1,950-lb BX102RI with 2,680 lb to spare. Wallenstein lists no price; ask a dealer.
