    Features

    The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.

    The STIHL 2-MIX engine is both powerful and economical. Separating the exhaust emissions from the unburnt gas minimises scavenging losses, and therefore increases the power output while reducing consumption.<br /><br />The two-stroke engine with STIHL 2-MIX technology saves up to 20% of fuel and reduces emissions by up to 70% compared to STIHL 2-stroke engines of the same performance class without 2-MIX technology.

    Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.

    EFFORTLESS STARTING. STIHL Easy2start saves you energy when starting your power tools. A smooth and even pull on the starter cord is all that’s needed. The required speed on the starter cord is significantly reduced, and the engine starts quickly and reliably even with a slow pull. An additional spring between the crankshaft and the starter cord roll makes this easier.
    STIHL ErgoStart
    COMFORTABLE ADJUSTMENT OF BLOWING FORCE. The throttle trigger can be used to adjust the engine performance and as such the usable blowing force. You can adjust the engine output between idling and full power on an infinitely variable basis. The throttle trigger always remains in your preferred position. A brief thumb press on the stop button is sufficient to switch off the power tool. The blower remains immediately ready to be used again.
    Adjustable throttle trigger with stop switch
    FOR COMFORTABLE HANDLING. The control switch can be locked in any preferred position between idling and full power. This is particularly helpful for longer periods of use. It is easy and convenient to adjust, as your hand always stays on the ergonomically shaped handle.

    STIHL SH 86 C-E Vacuum Shredder

    The STIHL SH 86 C-E petrol vacuum shredder is ideal for a variety of shredding and blowing work and is ideal for extended use on large areas. The efficient leaf vacuum provides powerful support with both vacuuming and blowing in both private and professional applications.

    The tool is powered by a STIHL 2-MIX engine, which facilitates very high working and operational comfort. It begins as soon as the STIHL SH 86 C-E engine starts up: STIHL ErgoStart makes starting easier as it compensates for load peaks that occur during the starting process, thereby reducing the amount of force required. The manual fuel pump fills the carburettor, reducing the number of start-up strokes and in doing so also saving your strength. Thanks to the infinitely variable speed control, you always have exactly the power the STIHL SH 86 C-E vacuum shredder needs at any given moment. The throttle lever with stop button can also be locked on an infinitely variable basis; this supports the ergonomic one-handed operation with soft-grip zone. The STIHL anti-vibration system protects your muscles and joints while you work.

    Suitable even in growing beds and difficult corners where leaves are hard to blow away, the SH 86 C-E vacuum shredder can effectively vacuum everything up and shred it with its high-quality steel star-shaped shredder. The cuttings are then deposited directly in the 45-litre collection bag of the SH 86 C-E petrol leaf vacuum. For particularly dusty applications, you can also retrofit the dust-reducing collection bag for the SH 56 and SH 86, which has a capacity of 45 litres.

    The leaf blower is equipped with a flat nozzle and a round nozzle as standard, for blower use. The curved flat nozzle is also available for retrofitting. Thanks to these equipment features of the STIHL SH 86 C-E leaf vacuum, you can easily and effectively clear larger quantities of leaves using the blower function for longer periods of use.

    The STIHL gutter cleaning set with an approx. 3 m long blower pipe is available as an option for removing dirt and leaves from gutters.
