Mahindra 2126 · PTO WOOD CHIPPERS
Mahindra lists the 2126 at 18.8 PTO hp, 0.2 short of WoodMaxx’s 19-hp WM-8 minimum that the 1126 (19.2) clears. Its 1,760-lb lift is no constraint. Wallenstein BX52S (22–55 engine hp) and the 15-hp-class chippers fit.

| Chipper | Published requirement | On 18.8 PTO / 25.3 engine hp | Weight vs 1,760 lb |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wallenstein BX52S | 22–55 engine hp | Inside (+3.3) | 505 lb |
| Farmer-Helper FH-BX42 / Farmry WCAP5 Pro | 15–45 PTO hp | Inside (+3.8) | About 430 / 386 lb |
| Woodland Mills WC46 | 15–30 PTO hp; over 20 for full 4-inch | Inside; 1.2 short of the 20 condition | 587 lb |
| Farmry WCAP5 / Wallenstein BX36S | 15–45 / 12–30 engine hp | Inside | 412 / 395 lb |
| WoodMaxx WM-8H / WM-8M | 19 PTO hp minimum | 0.2 short: excluded | — / 775 lb |
| Woodland Mills WC68 / WoodMaxx MX-8800 | 20 PTO hp minimum | 1.2 short: excluded | 747 lb / — |
Mahindra rates the 1126 and 2126 at 25.3 engine hp, but lists 19.2 PTO hp for the 1126 and 18.8 for the 2126. WoodMaxx’s 19-hp line falls between them. The 2126 lifts more than twice as much, so weight would not stop a WM-8, but power does by 0.2.
Wallenstein’s BX52S (5-inch gravity feed) is inside on the 2126’s engine rating. WoodMaxx’s WM-8H (8-inch hydraulic feed) needs 19 PTO hp. The comparison below sets them side by side.
Mahindra’s 2100 Series table lists the PTO as live. A chipper flywheel keeps turning when the clutch is pressed, so fit an overrunning clutch.
Mahindra lists 1,760 lb 24 inches aft. Every chipper here is far under it.
THE SCREEN, WITH ITS LIMITS VISIBLE
No pairing below is manufacturer-confirmed. “Preliminary” still requires implement limits, load center, ballast, hitch geometry and shaft checks.
