MH 560

Powerful manoeuvrable tiller

General

MH 560

The STIHL tiller MH 560 is perfect both for working in between existing rows of plants and preparing medium-sized plots of land. Combined with the powerful engine, the tilling width of 60 cm ensures maximum manoeuvrability and mobility. The reverse gear also makes it so much easier to manoeuvre the machine and change the direction of travel. The height of the brake spur can be adjusted to one of three settings to ensure the tiller holds a straight line. During operation, the blades penetrate the soil in a cutting rather than a chopping action. This results in the tiller running more smoothly and generating fewer vibrations. The integrated anti-vibration system absorbs the vibrations from the engine. The height-adjustable handlebar allows you to perform ground work with minimal effort while sparing your muscles and joints. In order to withstand persistent loads, this STIHL tiller is manufactured from extremely durable components such as a forged crankshaft, an aluminium gearbox housing and a worm shaft made of hardened steel.

Standard equipment

  • Simple throttle actuation Zoom
    Simple throttle actuation

    The STIHL tiller can be steered using both handles. The throttle is within reach of the handles and so the speed controller on the handlebar can be operated with the thumb while steering. As a result, the power of the tiller can be controlled precisely when tilling.

  • Anti-vibration system
