Please note that this model is only available as a tool only without battery and charger. If you do not already have a battery or charger, please make sure that you add these to your basket. The SHA 140 is a high-performance battery-powered vacuum shredder that has been designed for professional users and is part of the AP System. With 15% more suction power compared to the petrol SH 86 vacuum shredder, the SHA 140 is the ideal tool for professionals working in landscaping and grounds maintenance. The vacuum shredder will efficiently vacuum leaves, grass and hedge clippings with ease before shredding them directly in the machine. It’s excellent suction power means it doesn’t matter what surface you are working on – whether it is asphalt, concrete, gravel, lawns or flowerbeds – the SHA 140 will be able to vacuum and shred with ease. Assembling the SHA 140 and removing the catcher bag can be done without the need for tools. Its wide openings allow for easy access when cleaning the tool, mean clogs can be cleared with ease. The ergonomic design of the handle means the tool is comfortable to use thanks to the wide handles and the positioning of the collection bag. The ventilation openings on the collection bag enables constant suction power regardless of the fill level of the bag, and the metal shredder blade on the shredder reduces the size of material to better fill the bag and speed up the composting of material. The collection bag has a robust design and doesn’t use a zipper – it instead has robust metal buckles and has been designed for quick and complete emptying once full. The SHA 140 has a variable sped trigger for greater control and a boost mode integrated into the throttle trigger. The tool is IPX4 rated too, meaning it can be used in adverse weather conditions such as rain. A Smart Connector 2A port on the tool means it can be connected to STIHL connected with ease too. On a full charge with the recommended AP 300 S battery, the SHA 140 has a working time of 60 minutes, or 38 minutes on boost mode.
