The Hansa C16c Hydra Drive combines the same compact power as the C16c with twin hydraulic wheel drives for effortless manoeuvring. Operated via handles on each side and forward/reverse controls on the right, it makes for easy loading on and off trailers and through narrow gates or garden paths. The hydraulics are belt-driven from the engine, ensuring smooth, controlled transport anywhere you need to chip.

HydraDrive Chipper Features

Professional Power

The C16c Hydra Drive is powered by the powerful 16HP Briggs and Stratton Vanguard engine. An industrial grade easy starting engine. We have undertaken a detailed engine match testing programme to ensure the capabilities of the C16c Hydra Drive are perfectly balanced with the power output of the 16HP Vanguard engine. This ensures longevity of the high performance of both the chipper and engine.

High Speed Gravity Feed

The C16c Hydra Drive delivers extraordinary self-feeding performance. The 50 kg cutting disc rotates at 2000 RPM creating a self perpetuating inertia. The draft created by the winged cutting disc pulls foliage into the machine fast and effectively through the 170 x 220 mm infeed opening. The outlet chute height of 1485mm allows the user to load chip onto a trailer, ute or stockpile.

Quality that Lasts

Engineered and manufactured in New Zealand using the highest quality components to last a lifetime. The Soft Start Technology engages the belts between the engine and cutting disc for smooth running and protects you engine against shock loading.
Made of steel and finished with a durable powdercoated finish with zinc shield rust protection delivers longevity.

Service with Ease

Easy access for routine servicing and maintenance by removing two bolts on the housing. The two A8 modified steel knives have an impressive lifespan and can be sharpened up to 10 times. Access to the belts is easy by simply removing the belt guard.
