BullMach Hercules 65 B&S - Petrol garden shredder - B&S CR950 engine

The BullMach Hercules 65 B&S garden shredder or wood chipper has been specifically designed for shredding medium-diameter branches and logs, greatly reducing the volume of wood chips waste. Ideal for all those who need to maintain green spaces and quickly remove and grind biodegradable waste from the ground.

Major strengths of this machine:

• Sturdiness thanks to the system with steel rotor.
• Cutting diameter it allows easily shredding up to 65 mm diameter green branches, while standard shredders featuring the same power can cut branches up to max. 50/60 mm - However, large-diameter branches with more than 60 mm diameter have to be entered in the hopper slowly.
• Exceptional working capacity, it can carry out intense and demanding operations even when constantly grinding large diameter wood.
• High hourly output, over the standard petrol wood chippers consisting of rotor with blades and hammers (it can reach 5/8 mc/h).

Limitations: the final size of the wood chips is larger than average due to the lack of centrifugal hammers. These wood chippers are specifically intended for shredding medium and large-sized diameter branches (according to the max. cutting diameter indicated on each model). They are not suitable for small leaves and green material and small diameter branches.

Warning: Like all wood chippers and garden shredders, it is not suitable for shredding grass, leaves, pine needles, etc.… (it is designed to shred branches, but it can also grind the leaves, needles and other vegetation that may be attached to them).

Garden shredders intended use:
- The wood chipper must grind only green branches and not dried ones (which would limit its shredding capacity and lead to quick deterioration of the blades);
- The branches must be preferably long, smooth and not knobby (otherwise the cutting diameter would be reduced);
- The branch cutting diameter indicated is the maximum, so it is advised not to shred larger branches. In this case, it would be better to purchase a shredder with a larger branch cutting diameter;
- The cutting diameter can vary according to the amounts of wood (e.g: oak, olive, plum and peach are hardwood and can reduce the cutting capacity of the wood chipper);

The Briggs & Stratton Series 950 engine guarantees high performances and it is suitable for works requiring high power, thanks to the 208 cc.

Features:

Latest generation 4-stroke engine with overhead valve shaft "OHV" and automatic decompression start system.
Easy recoil starter thanks to the automatic fuel priming system.

WARNING!

The engine is PROVIDED WITHOUT OIL.
Make sure to carefully read the instructions manual before starting the unit.

Nominal power: 7 Hp
The correct term would be "Commercial” Power, meaning the standard definition used until a few years ago by all well-known engine manufacturers.

* This technical feature is the one indicated in the main sales channels, even if it is higher than the real power of the engine.

Rated power: 4.70 Hp (at 2600 rpm)
It refers to the real power of the engine. This is the power indicated as official in the engine instructions manual.

* This technical feature may vary from an engine model to another according to the rotation speed provided by the manufacturer.

It is the only machine of its category with intermediate 2-belt drive transmission.

This feature gives high sturdiness to the unit, protecting both the engine and all the shredding system from every possible internal hit or kickback.

Higher durability over time compared to the standard system of all the manufacturers of petrol-powered machineries, as the transmission is directly connected to the shredding cutting system.

The transmission is also equipped with special centrifugal clutch.

Details of the protection cover with dual ventilation air intake.

UNIFIED: considerably simplifies and speeds up operations compared to shredders featuring two feeding hoppers.

SIZE: (W x H) 40 x 37 cm * This value refers to the useful inlet size of the hopper

SELF-FEEDING: once introduced the branches into the hopper, the shredder draws them inside the shredding chamber autonomously.

HOPPER: the hopper can be opened by unscrewing the 2 screws in question, to allow quick inspection, both for clogging and for maintenance and checking the condition of the blades.

SAFETY SYSTEM: emergency button in case of danger it is possible to immediately stop the machine, both for personal safety, and in case of clogging.

Large and highly-thick 2 shredding blades mounted on a steel spinning rotor.

The dual blade system also includes a counter-blade placed in the shredding chamber.

This ensures high-quality wood chips with an hourly output varying from 5 to 8 mc/h.

Length, width and thickness of blades: 150x52x6 mm

Cutting roller weight: 11 kg

Inner blade-holder rotor with shaft made by balancing operation.

All roller shredders like this one allow high performance by entering leafless and cleaned branches (not thick and with too twigs);
they are ideal for quite large branches and not for many thin or green branches featuring many twigs; this is because the roller system is technically unsuitable for grinding small diameters branches, or green material in general, while they really give their best with larger branches.
This is due to their less "centrifugal" power compared to standard disc and blade models, and to the "greater distance between blade and counter-blade", designed for single branches that are already well cleaned but with a large diameter.

Adjustable discharge chute, 1 m height from the ground, equipped with adjustable-tilting deflector.

Further to the deflector tilt, it is also possible to adjust the discharge chute: indeed, it can rotate and simply adjusted either to right or left by manually loosening or tightening the proper knobs.

The Bull Mach Hercules 65 B&S garden shredder is equipped with dual grip to facilitate moving operations.

The wood chipper is also provided with 2 large pneumatic wheels 13* 5-6 that ensure easy transport.

The support leg may differ depending on supply.
