1PREFACE
Introduction
CONGRATULATIONS! You have just purchased the Victory BX42S Woodchipper, the strongest,
safest, and compact PTO Manual Feed Woodchipper in its category.
1.1 Identification
Our upgraded BX42S cuts wood up to 5″ thickness in diameter and has improved air suction for
improved woodchips output.
The new BX42S Woodchipper is robust, reliable, and easy to handle. It cuts all kinds of wood. The
BX42S includes the PTO shaft with a shear bolt and connects to your CAT I, 3-Point Hitch. The
upper and lower pins are included, and additional bushings for Cat II mounting are available.
Performance:
◼You can operate the woodchipper between 540 to 1,000 rpm, this means between 36 to 66
chips per second utilizing four hardened steel cutting knives against one bed/counter knife.
◼We recommend operating your tractor between 25 - 35 HP for maximum performance and
flexibility and a PTO shaft speed of 540 rpm. The direct PTO drive system turns the well-
balanced 37 kg (82 lb) rotor with its four 8¼″ knives, made from hardened tooling steel.
◼The counter knife setting produces cutted material from ¾”to 1½”in size.
◼The rotor speed and the specially designed rotor winglets create the air suction, which throws
out the chipped material and makes wood jams virtually impossible.
◼The heavy half-inch thick rotor disc also has branch breakers processing skinny branches. The
rotor is driven by the PTO shaft (included in the shipment).
◼The discharge funnel is 62” in height, and you can turn it at 230° with an adjustable throwing
angle. The chipped material can be thrown up to 20’ in the distance, making it easy to fill
trailers or containers.
◼The woodchipping capacity is 200 to 250 cu.ft./hr. depending on the type of material to be
chipped.
◼Victory’s BX42S machine complies with all safety standards and is CE tested following the
2006/42/EC machine directives.
