7.3 Opening and closing the
discharge flap
Opening the discharge flap:
● For shredding, fold the discharge
flap (1) upwards and allow the tab (2) to
engage in the ejection chute extension.
Closing the discharge flap:
● For transport or space-saving storage,
lift the tab (2) slightly and fold away the
discharge flap (1) downwards.
7.4 Attaching the upper chute
The chute can only be installed by a
specialist dealer using special
tools. STIHL recommends STIHL
specialist dealers.
● Place upper chute (S) with symbol (1)
facing forwards in the direction of
closure screws (2) on lower chute (3).
We recommend following the
described installation sequence to
prevent the splash guard slipping
off when screwing in the screws.
● Screw in screws (T) in the sequence
shown (1 2 3 4).
8. Notes on working with the
machine
8.1 What material can be processed?
– Feeding the garden shredder. ( 8.8)
GHE 150, GHE 250 S, GHE 260 S:
Tree and hedge cuttings as well as thick
branch material with side shoots.
42
GHE 250, GHE 260:
Organic plant trimmings such as fruit and
5
vegetable cuttings, flower cuttings, leaves,
tree and hedge cuttings, as well as thick
branches with side shoots and twigs.
Tree and hedge cuttings should be
processed when fresh, as the
shredding performance is better
with fresh than with dried-out or wet
material.
8.2 What material cannot be
processed?
Stones, glass, bits of metal (wire, nails,
6
etc.) or plastic must not be fed into the
garden shredder.
As a general rule:
Any materials that do not belong on the
compost heap should not be processed
using the garden shredder.
8.3 Maximum branch diameter
The data relates to freshly cut branch
material:
Maximum branch diameter
GHE 150, GHE 250, GHE 250 S: 35 mm;
GHE 260, GHE 260 S: 40 mm
8.4 Working area for operator
● For safety reasons, the operator
must stay within the working area
(grey area X) for the entire operating
period (while the motor is switched on
or the engine is running), particularly in
order to prevent injuries due to
shredding material that is ejected
backwards.
8.5 Correct machine load
The load on the motor or engine of the
garden shredder must never cause the
speed to drop significantly. Always feed
the garden shredder continuously and
steadily. If the speed drops when working
with the garden shredder, stop feeding the
machine in order to relieve the load on the
motor or engine.
Only switch off the motor when
there is no longer any shredding
material in the machine. Otherwise,
the blade disc may become blocked
when operation is resumed.
8.6 Overload protection
If an overload of the motor occurs during
operation, the built-in overload protection
device automatically switches off the
motor.
The garden shredder can be started up
again after a cooling period of
approx. 10 minutes. Frequent triggering
of the overload protection may be
attributable to the following causes:
– Unsuitable electric cable ( 10.1)
– Power overload
– Machine overloaded due to excessive
quantities of shredding material or blunt
blades

8.7 If the cutting unit of the garden
shredder is blocked
If the cutting unit of the garden shredder
becomes blocked during shredding,
immediately switch off the motor and
