John Deere 1025r- BX42 Woodchipper / #91

Overview

This is an owner's real-world test of a BX42 wood chipper (bought used, ~$1,200) behind a 1025R, not a dealer demo. It covers pre-run inspection of blades and flywheel, PTO start-up sequence, hauling logistics with an 18-foot trailer, then actually feeding wrist-sized branches through two brush piles with helpers, plus a post-job teardown check. Good fit for 1025R owners weighing this specific implement's real capacity and PTO horsepower limits.
