2023 Stihl Electric shredders GHE 260

Powerful high-voltage shredders with shredding units

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.

Features may include:

Soundproofed feed chute

• The large feed chute facilitates feeding of the STIHL shredder. The soundproofed feed chute reduces working noise when shredding in the garden. The integrated spray protection provides a shield against swirling dirt.

Safety lock

• The electromagnetic safety lock prevents the garden shredder from starting automatically during maintenance operations or when the blade is being changed, for example. The safety switch is integrated in the opening mechanism on the STIHL shredder. As soon as the closure screws on the machine are unscrewed, the safety switch is tripped and the current flow is interrupted.

Touch pad switch

• The housing of the STIHL shredder is fitted with a touch pad switch and an operating indicator to allow simple and intuitive operation of the garden shredder.
