A few observations:

For both recurring tasks one Timer instance is created.  Normally the 
approach would be to just use one Timer instance - especially since 
tasks do not seem to be very heavy.

Your use of variable declarations is very C-ish.  Don't do that in Java. 
  Rather declare them for the smallest necessary scope.  This helps 
avoid one class of errors.

format1 can be made final, as well as calendar and timer (when using one 
Timer only).

Even for such a simple example you could factor out the common part of 
both scheduling activities and thus make it more readable.  Getting into 
that habit will help you create more modular and less redundant code.

Kind regards
