I purchsed my 6hp petrol - electric start Forest Master Chipper two years ago so this is a long term review. I use the chipper in the summer and autumn months only and a lot as I have a 2/3 acre plot. The chippings are great for the flower beds.The pruduct has been very reliable in use and still works as good as the day it was purchased and that alone endorses the quality of the machine. It punches well above it's weight and chips everything ( within reason ) with ease. The chipper blades are very good in service and are double sided. I have not needed to change them yet. The electric start battery still performs as when new and has needed no charging despite two long winter periods of none use. The motor is very powerful for a chipper of this size and does not struggle if used the way it should be. It will chip branches well over the stated sise. This has to be one of the best purchase I have made and has made light of work of everything thrown at it. A little tip and nothing to do with the machine however, but my forgetfullness. After you have finished using the machine and are storing it, make sure the fuel tank has no fuel in it. Petrol goes stale if left in situ for a while so use a fuel stabilzer if you do leave petrol in the tank. Also if the fuel goes stale in the carburetor it will not start because there are no octanes in it and it's just like dity brown water that stinks. As a matter of good pratice I drain any fuel from the carb before storing the machine over winter. This is easy and can save you a headache and a flooded wet spark plug and so the engine will not start. On the carburetor bowl there are two nuts one underneath it's bowl and one about half inch above that on the side. Shut off the fuel valve. Open the one on the side and let the fuel drain out of the carb thus emptying the fuel bowl. When filled with fresh petrol when next you put the chipper in service the machine has no problems it will fire up first time. All good practice but it's a simple thing that's easy to forget to do.
