MH 585 power tiller: versatile applications on medium-sized areas

General

The STIHL tiller MH 585 is a versatile multi-purpose machine ideal for medium-sized plots of land and larger garden patches. The engine is powerful enough to turn over firm ground efficiently. This tiller is perfect for creating new gardens and flower beds as well as preparing seed beds for vegetable crops. In order to tend crops positioned more closely together with greater efficiency and care, you can divide the hoe set on the MH 585. This reduces the working width to 60 cm. Equipment features such as the integrated anti-vibration system, central handlebar adjustment feature for adapting the machine to your body height and reverse gear make working much easier. The equipment allows the tiller to effortlessly manoeuvre, change direction or navigate around obstacles. The low centre of gravity also contributes to effortless handling of the machine. The machine features folding wheels and an adjustable handlebar that allow effortless and space-saving storage of the tiller.

  • SHREDDER BLADES Zoom
    SHREDDER BLADES

  • 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

  • ADJUSTABLE BAR Zoom
