Choose whether you want to vacuum the leaves or blow them away. The SHA 56 of the STIHL AK battery system enables both functions in one and the same device. The practical leaf blower/vacuum shredder can be used for many tasks. Blow the flagstones clean after mowing the lawn, keep the garden free of tree leaves or vacuum the dirt from the garage floor. No tools are needed to switch between functions. The innovative, swiveling handle with integrated air speed control makes the SHA 56 comfortable to work with. The efficient metal shredder blade chops up the sucked material so that the collection bag can fit more and the shredded material is composted better. The large mouth opening of the collection bag makes emptying easier.
Standard equipment
Simple cleaning Thanks to the large opening of the fan wheel, it is easy to clean the compost knife or remove stuck material.
Ergonomic, reversible handle The 180° rotating handle makes the machine comfortable and ergonomic both as a fan and as a vacuum cleaner.
Adjustable carrying strap The padded and adjustable carrying strap provides excellent comfort and makes working easier. Metal suspension loops.
Compatible with Smart Connector The STIHL Smart Connector can be installed quickly and easily.
Metal compost knife A solid metal compost knife that chops up the vacuumed material
Adjustable blow pipe The blow pipe of the SHA 56 can be ergonomically adjusted in two different stages according to the body length. This also minimizes the loss of blowing power when the distance to the ground is too long.
Smartly designed collection bag The material of the 40 liter collection bag lets air in only one direction and is easy to attach to the machine. Thin straps, which can be used to hang the bag in different positions, combined with an asymmetric shape make it easier to carry. A long zipper makes emptying easier.
Shaped suction pipe The opening of the suction pipe is shaped in such a way that there are recesses on both sides to achieve better suction power. The tube also does not stick to surfaces.
Adjustable throttle lever Adjustable throttle lever so that the blowing power can be adapted to the task and the surface.
Transport position and operating mode of the battery The battery can be placed in two different positions. In the transport position, the battery is attached to the machine, but not in contact with the contact surfaces of the machine. In operating mode, the battery is fully pressed in and the contact surfaces of the battery and the machine are facing each other.
Tool-free change from vacuum cleaner to fan The fan can be changed quickly and without tools into a vacuum cleaner and back into a fan. The SHA cannot be started until all pipes are properly closed and the protective grid is closed on the fan.
