90mm Gas Wood Chipper for Home & Hobby Farm | 7 HP | CH7
Processes branches up to 90mm (3.5") — the difference between handling storm cleanup yourself and calling a service.
Why 90mm Matters — Detailed Analysis
H2: Why a 90mm Chipper Actually Solves the Problem Most Homeowners Face
Most homeowners buy a chipper, discover it only handles 2-inch branches, and end up paying for brush removal anyway. The CH7 processes branches up to 90mm (3.5 inches) — that's the difference between handling a storm cleanup yourself and calling in a service. We see too many buyers undersize their chipper and regret it the first time they face a pile of storm debris.
H3: The Math of Branch Volume — What 90mm Actually Means on Your Property
Here's what the 90mm capacity translates to in real-world terms:
| Branch Diameter | Examples | CH7 Handles It? | Smaller 60mm Chipper |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20–40mm (0.8–1.6") | Small pruning, hedge trimmings | ✅ Effortlessly | ✅ Yes |
| 50–70mm (2–2.8") | Standard tree branches | ✅ Well within capacity | ⚠️ Struggles |
| 80–90mm (3.1–3.5") | Major pruning, storm damage | ✅ At capacity | ❌ Cannot process |
| 100mm+ (4"+) | Large tree limbs | ❌ Beyond capacity | ❌ Beyond capacity |
The 90mm threshold matters. Most residential properties have a mix of branch sizes after storm cleanup or seasonal pruning. A 60mm chipper handles the easy stuff but chokes on the major branches. The CH7 processes the full range you'll actually encounter on a typical homeowner property.
H3: Gas Powered vs. Electric — What Actually Works on a Property
This is the decision we see homeowners get wrong constantly. They're drawn to the lower upfront cost of an electric chipper, but they don't account for what their property actually demands.
| Factor | CH7 Gas Powered (7 HP Loncin) | Electric Chipper (2–3 HP) |
|---|---|---|
| Branch capacity | 90mm (3.5") maximum | Usually 45mm (1.8") maximum |
| Cord freedom | ✅ Unlimited — take it anywhere | ❌ Limited by cord length |
| Remote location use | ✅ Orchard, back field, trail | ❌ Needs power outlet |
| Processing speed | 2–3 m³/hr depending on feeding | Slower — jams more frequently |
| Maintenance | Oil changes, spark plug, air filter | Minimal — but motor burns out |
| Best for | Property owners with trees | Small garden pruning only |
The reality: If you have more than 3–4 trees on your property, or any distance between your power outlet and your work area, gas is the only practical choice. The 7 HP Loncin engine gives you the torque to process green wood without stalling — something electric chippers consistently struggle with.
H3: CH7 vs. Larger Commercial Chippers — What You Actually Need
| Factor | CH7 (90mm Home Chipper) | Commercial 120mm+ Chipper |
|---|---|---|
| Branch capacity | 90mm (3.5") | 120mm+ (4.7"+) |
| Engine power | 7 HP Loncin 270cc | 15+ HP |
| Weight | ~180 kg | 400+ kg |
| Towing required | No — towable or walk-behind | Usually yes — trailer needed |
| Price range | Accessible for homeowners | Commercial/institutional budget |
| Storage | Fits in standard shed/garage | Needs dedicated space |
| Best for | Homeowners, hobby farms under 5 acres | Commercial crews, municipalities, large estates |
Choose the CH7 if: you're maintaining a residential property, hobby farm, or orchard under 5 acres. The 90mm capacity handles 95% of what you'll encounter. For anything larger, you're in commercial territory — and the machine size, weight, and cost reflect that.
NOT suitable for: Commercial landscaping crews, municipal use, or properties over 10 acres with heavy continuous chipping needs. For those cases, look at the CS750 Pro or CS1200 Pro.

Full Technical Specifications
H2: Technical Specifications — CH7 90mm Gas Powered Wood Chipper
Engine
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Engine | Loncin 270cc Gasoline Engine |
| Power | 7 HP (net power at 3600 rpm) |
| Displacement | 270 cc |
| Fuel Tank Capacity | 3.6 Liters |
| Oil Capacity | 0.6L / 0.16 gal |
| Rotation Speed | 3600 rpm (max) |
| Cooling | Air cooled |
| Starting | Recoil pull-start |
| Choke | Manual |
| Certification | EPA, CE, Euro V |
Why It Matters: The 7 HP Loncin 270cc is a proven residential-grade engine. It has enough low-end torque to handle 90mm green branches without stalling — the real test of a chipper engine. The 3.6L fuel tank gives you roughly 2–3 hours of runtime depending on load. We always tell buyers: if you're processing mostly dry wood under 60mm, you'll use less fuel. If you're processing green oak at 80–90mm, keep extra fuel handy.
Chipping System
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Maximum Chipping Capacity | 90 mm (3.5 inches) |
| Chipping Mechanism | Dual-blade rotor system |
| Rotor Weight | 28 kg (balanced for smooth operation) |
| Blade Material | Hardened steel, replaceable |
| Feed Type | Gravity feed with self-feeding design |
| Chip Size | Approximately 10–25mm output size |
| Flywheel Diameter | 360mm |
Why It Matters: "Self-feeding" means once you insert a branch, the rotor pulls it through. You're not pushing it in manually. The 28kg rotor weight is deliberate — lighter rotors lose momentum when they hit resistance. Heavier rotors maintain RPM through the cut. The hardened steel blades are replaceable and reversible — when one side dulls, flip them before replacing.
Construction & Mobility
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Frame | Reinforced steel, powder-coated |
| Infeed Chute Height | 820mm (ergonomic — no excessive lifting) |
| Discharge Chute | Adjustable, 180° rotation |
| Tires | 13" pneumatic tires |
| Towable | ✅ ATV/lawn tractor compatible hitch |
| Folding Tongue | ✅ Fits through standard gate |
| Weight | 178 kg (net) / 198 kg (packing) |
| Dimensions (L×W×H) | 1650 × 680 × 1350 mm |
Why It Matters: The 820mm infeed height matters more than you'd think. Cheaper chippers put the infeed chute at waist height — you're lifting every branch to that height. The CH7 positions it at a comfortable working height. The 13" pneumatic tires absorb ground vibration and handle uneven terrain. The folding tongue means you can tow it to the back field, then fold it down and store it in a standard garage bay.
Performance Data
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Processing Rate | 2–3 m³/hr (depending on branch diameter and feeding speed) |
| Chip Output | Usable as mulch, compost base, pathway material |
| Maximum Brush Pile Reduction | Approximately 10:1 volume reduction |
| Recommended Session Length | 45–60 minutes continuous, then 10-minute cool-down |
Why It Matters: The 2–3 m³/hr rate assumes a steady feeding rhythm. If you're processing mostly 40–60mm branches, you'll be at the higher end. If you're feeding 80–90mm branches, the engine works harder and the rate slows. The 10:1 volume reduction means a pile of branches that fills a 10-cubic-meter trailer produces about 1 cubic meter of chips. That's genuine space savings.
Dimensions & Logistics
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Package Dimensions | 1150mm × 760mm × 850mm |
| Net Weight | 178 kg |
| Gross Weight | 198 kg |
| 20GP Container | 36 units |
| 40HQ Container | 72 units |
| SKD Packing Option | Available for OEM orders (96 units/40HQ) |
Why It Matters: 72 units per 40HQ is competitive for the 90mm class. The folding tongue and compact packaging width (760mm) make this possible. For dealers importing mixed batches, the CH7's container density helps offset lower-density items. The SKD (semi-knocked-down) option increases container utilization to 96 units — worth considering for dedicated container runs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you buy — answered by our product team.
What size branches can the CH7 actually process in real-world use?
The CH7 handles branches up to 90mm (3.5 inches) in diameter. In practice, that means oak, maple, and fruit tree branches up to that thickness. Softwood (pine, fir) processes more easily at the full 90mm capacity. Hardwood at 80–90mm pushes the engine — it'll process it, but you'll hear the engine working. Branches over 90mm won't fit in the infeed chute. For reference: most residential storm cleanup involves branches in the 30–70mm range. The CH7 handles that all day without strain.
How much fuel does the CH7 use per hour?
The 7 HP Loncin 270cc engine burns approximately 1.2–1.8 liters per hour under normal load (mix of 40–70mm branches). Processing mostly 80–90mm green hardwood pushes fuel consumption toward the higher end (1.6–2.0 L/hr). The 3.6L fuel tank gives you roughly 2–3 hours of runtime. For a typical homeowner session (processing storm debris for 60–90 minutes), you'll use about 1.5–2.0L of fuel. Not heavy consumption for a 7 HP gas engine.
Can the CH7 handle green branches or only dry wood?
It handles both. Green branches actually process more smoothly than dry wood in some ways — the moisture content prevents excessive blade heating. The 7 HP engine has enough torque to handle green hardwood up to about 70–80mm without bogging down. Above 80mm green hardwood, you'll want to feed more slowly and let the engine maintain RPM. Dry hardwood at 80–90mm is actually harder on the engine than green wood — it's more brittle and creates more resistance at the cut.
How do I know when the blades need sharpening or replacing?
You'll notice three things: (1) the engine sounds like it's working harder on branches it used to handle easily, (2) the chips coming out are torn rather than cleanly cut, and (3) you're feeding more slowly to avoid stalling. The hardened steel blades are reversible — each blade has two cutting edges. When one side dulls, flip it. When both sides are dull, either sharpen them (file or bench grinder) or replace them. With typical homeowner use (20–30 hours per year), you're looking at blade rotation every 10–15 hours and sharpening/replacement after 30–50 hours.
Is the CH7 suitable for a hobby farm with fruit trees and fencing?
Yes — this is exactly what it's designed for. Hobby farms with orchards generate large volumes of pruning debris every season. The CH7 processes fruit tree branches (usually 30–60mm, sometimes up to 80mm) efficiently. For fencing work — post-and-rail fencing generates a lot of branch waste from clearing lines — the CH7 handles it. The towable design means you can move it around the property behind an ATV or lawn tractor. We see a lot of hobby farmers buy it primarily for orchard maintenance and discover it handles all their brush disposal needs.
What's the chip output like, and can I use it for mulch?
The chips are approximately 10–25mm in size (depending on branch diameter and species). They're excellent for mulch — they break down slowly, suppress weeds, and allow water penetration. They're also good for compost base material (mix with green waste for balanced carbon/nitrogen ratio) and pathway material (spread 5–8cm deep on garden paths). What they're NOT ideal for: fine gardening mulch around delicate plants. For that, you'd want a dedicated garden shredder that produces smaller output.
How long does it take to chip a trailer load of branches?
That depends on the branch mix. For a standard 6×4 foot trailer (approximately 1.5 m³) filled with typical residential pruning (mostly 30–60mm branches with some up to 80mm): about 25–35 minutes of active chipping time. If the load is mostly 60–90mm branches, plan for 45–60 minutes. The CH7 processes roughly 2–3 m³ per hour under steady feeding. The limiter isn't usually the chipper — it's the operator feeding speed and clearing chips away from the discharge area.
