MH 560 power tiller: for effective use on medium-sized areas

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

    PRECISE CONTROL OF ENGINE PERFORMANCE. Regulate the performance of your power tool during operation without releasing the handle. The throttle actuator is attached to the handle; this means you can operate it conveniently with your thumb, and precisely control the speed of the engine.

Anti-vibration system


    The anti-vibration system is integrated in the handlebar mount on the STIHL tiller. It reduces the vibrations at the handlebar, which also reduces the effort required to operate the machine for extended periods.

  • SHREDDER BLADES Zoom
    SHREDDER BLADES

    FOR VERY EFFICIENT DIGGING OVER. The shredder blades of the STIHL power tiller have a specially developed shape. This allows them to dig soil over very efficiently in an optimised process sequence.

  • Swivelling brake spur Zoom
    Swivelling brake spur

    FACILITATES DIGGING OVER IN NARROW SPACES. The pivoting braking spur slows down the propulsion speed and increases the manoeuvrability of your power tiller. This makes it easier to dig ground over in tight spaces and curves. In addition, this slowing enables you to work more intensively with the hoe set. The captive brake spur is also easy to access and conveniently height-adjustable.

  • TRANSPORT WHEELS Zoom
    TRANSPORT WHEELS

    FACILITATE TRANSPORT AND MORE. If you want to easily move your power tiller to the place of work or storage location, you can simply fold down the transport wheels. You can also tilt the power tool onto its wheels for mounting and cleaning the hoe blades. The pair of wheels can be folded up for convenience when you are digging the ground over.

  • Kohler OHV engine with SmartChoke Zoom
    Kohler OHV engine with SmartChoke

    This STIHL tiller is powered by a Kohler four-stroke engine that incorporates OHV technology. Overhead valves ensure that the petrol/air mixture burns especially cleanly and efficiently. The SmartChoke system makes sure that the tiller starts up easily and reliably. The forged crankshaft and cast iron cylinder liner were developed to guarantee a long service life.

  • ADJUSTABLE BAR Zoom
    ADJUSTABLE BAR

    FOR HIGH WORKING COMFORT. The ergonomically shaped bar of your power tiller can be adjusted both vertically and laterally, without tools. This means that you can dig over soils with an ergonomic posture even on hard-to-access surfaces. To transport your power tiller easily or store it in a space-saving manner, simply fold down the bar.

  • CLEANING POSITION Zoom
    CLEANING POSITION

    EASY ACCESS TO THE SHREDDER BLADES. Easily and conveniently clean, assemble or disassemble the shredder blades in the cleaning position.
