The SH 56 is a Stihl leaf blower with a difference. Not only is this
a garden leaf blower but is also a petrol garden vacuum.
But it does not end there; a specialized shredder blade on the fan wheel
reduces garden waste. This backpack vacuum shredder has a robust rotor
blade of special steel as a standard feature to shred the collected material
so that fallen leaves, grass and hedge cuttings reduce to less than 10%
of original size.
Powered by a low emissions 27.2cc 2-stroke engine, this handheld shredder
vac/blower can be converted into a powerful blower without difficulty
using the blower tube included.
The STIHL SH56 is fitted with a semi-automatic choke and stop switch
for smooth starts; this automatically resets the machine to the starting
position to help prevent accidental flooding.
