Brushless motor and two STIGA ePower 20V batteries for a longer run-time. Compact, lightweight design with soft-grip ergonomic handle. Large 45L collector bag opens and detaches easily for cleaning. Two STIGA ePower 20V 4Ah batteries and charger included. Trimming hedges and trees and then blowing away the debris is great for tidying up after a gardening session. But instead of throwing the dead plant matter away, it makes eco-friendly sense to reuse it as a natural fertiliser in your flower and vegetable beds. The STIGA 1 Series Vacuum Shredder helps you do exactly that – quickly and easily – at the flick of a lever. Use this powerful, cordless tool as a leaf blower, a vacuum cleaner, and an automatic shredder. This automatically passes the nutritious mulch straight into the generous 45L textile bag – reducing the waste down to a tenth of the original amount you collect. When you’ve finished, simply open and pour out onto the soil, or store as compost. The bag also detaches quickly from the tool if you need to wash it. Compact, perfectly balanced and weighing only 2kg, the soft-grip handle ensures even time-consuming jobs in awkward spaces are easier on the arms. Simply adjust the air speed to suit what you’re doing with no risk of the robust 600W brushless motor overheating. And rely on the two STIGA ePower 20V 4Ah batteries to keep going as long as you do. These batteries also slot into our other 1 Series tools – making them extra versatile for gardening jobs throughout the year. Batteries and Charger included.
