GHE 260
GHE 260 electric garden shredder: robust all-rounder with high-voltage motor for demanding applications
General
The STIHL GHE 260 electric shredder is a versatile and economical all-rounder. Its sandwich-type blade unit gobbles up mixed shredding material, making it the ideal partner for clearing up after cutting back hedges and trees. The Multi-Cut blade disc very quickly shreds branches up to 35 mm thick into small particles that can be easily composted. Its electric motor is operated with high voltage, as well as being powerful and robust, resulting in impressive performance even on tougher jobs. The funnel’s filler opening, which is angled for easier filling, is positioned at a convenient height. Its opening also offers sufficient space for widely forked branches. The hopper has a splash guard and is noise-insulated. The power tool is easy to transport so that you can move the bladed shredder comfortably to its place of use.
