The vacuum shredders from STIHL pick up immense volumes of fallen leaves, cut grass and trimmings and simultaneously shred them. Reduce to less than 10% of the original volume, the organic material can be used directly for composting or mulching. But that is not all: standard accessories turn the vacuum shredder into a powerful blower. These models are available as basic versions with catalytic converter (D) or comfort models (C) with ErgoStart (E) for jerk free starting.
