If you are buying a new one, the brochures generally say what PTO HP is recommended for each size of brushog. Or with a used hog, you can cross reference what the brochures say for the new ones and apply it to a used one. Generally as a rule of thumb, you can use a 5' brushog with anything 25-30 PTO HP and up, and about 10-15 HP for every foot you go bigger, depending on what you are cutting and whether the tractor is gas or Diesel. You don't want it to bog down too much as you get a better cut when you keep the RPM's up. just my $0.02.
