The SHA 56 is the first cordless vacuum shredder/leaf blower from STIHL. Part of the AK System, this practical 2-in-1 machine is designed for vacuuming leaves and hedge cuttings as well as gathering leaves and debris into piles.
Whether you use the SHA 56 as a vacuum shredder or a blower, the rotatable handle has outstanding ergonomics and gives you greater comfort when you are working. You can convert the vacuum shredder to a blower (and vice versa) without the need for tools. Simply click the tubes into place, twist the handle 180 degrees and the SHA 56 will fit comfortably in your hand, ready to go. The variable speed trigger can be used to control the suction and blowing force of the SHA 56, while its specially angled handle makes it even more comfortable to handle when it is in vacuum shredder mode.
Working time with recommended AK 20 battery is up to 25 minutes.
