    Root Ripper BXpanded

    Curious how well the bxpanded root ripper works for digging or loosening dirt underneath stumps? The difficulty with using the hoe bucket for stumping is the limits in curling bucket and getting dirt loose under the stump and major roots. Anyone have input if this ripper tooth can curl under and...

    Tar River Grapple

    Recently sold my extinct BX size Landpride small grapple. Switched to SSQA and looking into 54-55" clam and ran across Tar River and not finding many details or info. Finally found a Belco Resources link and got an answer the grapple is made in Poland. Anyone have any experience with this brand?

    Wallenstein BX52 5" Wood Chipper

    Wallenstein BX52s PTO Woodchipper, Self Feeding, 5″ Diameter Chipper is like new, garaged on dolly and no more than 5-8 hours max of light use. Would be hard to find a new demo model with less use than this one. I'm retired and found I am not using it like I had envisioned and it's time someone...

    Trade Chipper for Rotary Stump Grinder

    While it may be a long shot I thought I'd try offering my Wallenstein BX52 - 5" wood chipper with very little use and considered like new for a trade of either a Baumalight or Woodland Mills 24" rotary stump grinder. Can't go any larger on a grinder as I have a BX24. I bought the Wallenstein...

    Safety: Never let your guard down

    I am not seeking sympathy in this post but I feel the need to emphasize safety when using any equipment. Two weeks ago I lost my brother in law in a tip over accident with an older large lawn tractor and trailer. He held a degree in mechanical engineering and if anyone knew the laws of physics...

    500 hour service BX24

    Any other advice or suggestions I should be thinking? I bought my BX24 new in '09 and have always followed the service recommendations faithfully. Especially changing engine oil probably more that average. I just drained the radiator and block and refilled with 50-50 gly. Drained and changed...

    Rear 540 PTO speed on BX series

    My BX24 rpm gauge is digital and thus no symbol on gauge. I've read a variety of answers from 2550 engine rpm to wot. I know it's important to know specifically for a generator. In my case I'm only using it thus far with a BX52 Wallenstein chipper and I have been running it at 2550 but have...

    Advice for stump grinders

    I'm attempting to learn as much as I can about PTO driven stump grinders and could use some advice. I have a BX24 with the backhoe and last year I bought a Wallenstein BX52 wood chipper that is a beast but it works quite well with my BX. Now I have near 30 ash stumps that I need ground out but...

    Land Pride QH05 quick hitch compatibility

    I have a BX24 and recently bought a Wallenstein BX52 chipper. Great chipper weighing in about 550lbs. Strongly considering a quick hitch as this puppy takes some heft in my old age to take on and off. I saw the Landpride QH05 and really like the fact it is light weight but I'd like to know for...

    BX24 Draft control knob seized

    Hi, all. New to this forum and looking forward to learning and hopefully contributing. I recently purchased a BX24 with 390 hours. The machine is in very nice condition, always garaged and seemingly well maintained with the exception of the draft control knob which is seized solid. There's never...
