Description
The BRABER BE-WCX8 8-Inch 3-Point PTO Wood Chipper is a tractor-mounted land-clearing attachment designed for processing branches and wood up to 8 inches in diameter. Its heavy-duty 28-inch flywheel rotor, four rotor knives, and 174 lb rotor provide substantial rotational momentum for demanding chipping work, while the 270° rotating discharge hood helps direct processed material where it is needed. Built for tractors rated from 25 to 65 HP, the BE-WCX8 uses a Category 1 three-point hitch and a 540 RPM PTO drive, making it suited to property maintenance, land clearing, trail work, and other applications requiring efficient on-site wood processing.
Heavy-Duty Chipping Performance
The BE-WCX8 combines an 8-inch chipper housing and feed opening with a robust flywheel-based cutting system. The 28-inch rotor is fitted with four rotor knives and weighs 174 lb, helping maintain high rotational momentum during operation. This configuration is designed for tractor-powered chipping applications where a durable, high-capacity attachment is needed for clearing branches and woody material.
Directional Discharge Control
A 270° rotating discharge hood provides broad control over the direction of discharged chips. With a discharge hood height of 82 inches, the unit is configured to direct processed material away from the machine and toward a selected discharge area during operation.
