Built for the job

What this chipper actually gives you

15 hp petrol

Petrol keeps the machine light enough to tow behind a normal car and simple enough to service yourself. No red-diesel record-keeping, and you refuel anywhere.

Electric key start

Turn a key and it runs. The recoil is there as a back-up for the morning the battery is flat, not as the normal way in.

Hydraulic feed

A lever at the hopper drives the timber through, so you are guiding branches rather than shoving them. Safer, and far less tiring across a day.

Belt drive

Engine to rotor through a belt — a wearing part you can inspect, tension and replace on site with ordinary tools.

Towable on a ball hitch

Single axle and a standard coupling. It goes to the job behind the vehicle you already own.

Adjustable chute

Rotate the chute and set the deflector to drop chip into a truck, a barrow or a pile without moving the machine.

Questions

About the HC15H

What size timber will it take?

We are confirming the exact rated capacity with the manufacturer and will publish it here rather than estimate it. If you need the figure before you order, email us and we will confirm it in writing the same working day.

Can I tow it behind a car?

It is built on a single-axle road chassis with a standard ball hitch. Check your vehicle's towing capacity and nose weight on the V5C and the tow bar plate, and confirm the machine's gross weight with us before you set off.

Petrol or diesel?

Petrol. At this size petrol gives the best power-to-weight ratio, keeps the towed weight down and avoids red-diesel record-keeping for commercial use.

Do I need training to use it?

There is no legal licence to own or run one. For commercial work HSE expects operators to be trained and competent — City & Guilds NPTC 0020 is the recognised UK unit. We supply the manual and PPE; we do not provide certification.

What does the warranty cover?

Two years on parts we supply and one year on the engine. Wear items — blades, belts, filters and the anvil — are excluded, as is damage from feeding stone, wire or metal into the hopper. Full terms are on our warranty page.
