GHE 260
Powerful high-voltage shredders with shredding units
General
The STIHL electric shredder GHE 260 is an industrious, economical all-rounder. The sandwich-type blade unit swallows all different types of shredding material and makes this machine an ideal companion for cutting hedges and tidying away tree cuttings. The Multi Cut blade disc quickly shreds branches up to 35 mm thick into small particles that are easy to compost. The motor operates with a high voltage. It is powerful and robust, and makes easy work of the toughest jobs. The feed opening on the feed chute has an angled design for easier feeding and is positioned at an ergonomically favourable height. The opening provides adequate space for inserting branches with multiple side shoots. The feed chute is fitted with a splash guard and is soundproofed. The blade shredder is easy to manoeuvre and can therefore be transported conveniently to its place of use.
