Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle helps makes it easier to complete tasks so the operator’s hand never has to leave the handle.
The STIHL Easy2Start™ system makes starting STIHL outdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord. This advanced starting system is designed to make starting STIHL products fast and easy. The specific system may vary by model, but in each case, a quick pull overcomes the engine’s compression to minimize the strength and effort required to start. Available on selected products.
The STIHL shoulder strap allows for greater maneuverability and helps reduce operator fatigue, allowing the user to work comfortably.
This handle design provides a secure and comfortable grip.
The convenience of the Easy2Start™ system makes it easy to vacuum and shred yard debris.
The STIHL SH 56 C-E makes seasonal cleanup easier by combining the power of a shredder vac and handheld blower in one versatile tool. Whether you're clearing leaves from the lawn, driveway, or landscape beds, this tool helps reduce yard waste as it works, shredding debris before collecting it in the easy-open zippered bag. Powered by a fuel-efficient STIHL engine, the SH 56 C-E delivers the performance homeowners need to tackle cleanup projects efficiently and spend less time managing piles of leaves and clippings.
Designed with comfort and convenience in mind, the SH 56 C-E features the STIHL Easy2Start™ system, helping reduce the effort needed to start the machine so you can get to work faster. Its lightweight, ergonomic design, comfortable grip, and single-handle control layout promote ease of use during extended cleanup sessions, while the included shoulder strap helps reduce fatigue and improve maneuverability. When the job calls for blowing instead of vacuuming, the SH 56 C-E easily converts to a handheld blower, giving you two essential yard cleanup tools in one dependable package.
