STIHL ASA 140 cordless pruning shears are built for professionals who spend long days cutting back fruit trees, plantation growth and woody branches where manual loppers quickly become tiring and slow.
With battery-assisted cutting up to 45 mm, progressive trigger control and a full carrying system included, the ASA 140 is designed to make high-volume pruning work faster, cleaner and far less demanding — especially in orchards, vineyards and tree care environments where precision matters as much as output.
Professional Cordless Pruning Shears for High-Volume Cutting Work
The STIHL ASA 140 is designed for one type of user: professionals who prune for hours, not minutes. In fruit growing, plantation work, horticulture and tree care, the limiting factor is rarely sharpness — it’s fatigue. Manual loppers might be cheap, but after a full day of repetitive cutting, the strain adds up quickly.
The ASA140 changes that by providing battery-assisted cutting power through STIHL’s AP system, allowing you to work faster and with noticeably less effort while still keeping full control over the cut.
Cutting Capacity That Suits Real Orchard and Plantation Work
These aren’t light-duty secateurs. The ASA 140 is built to handle branches up to 45 mm in diameter, covering the sort of woody pruning work found in fruit trees, vineyards and nursery stock.
For professional users, that 45 mm capacity means fewer tool changes and less reaching for a saw during routine pruning rounds.
Progressive Cut Control for Clean, Precise Results
One of the standout features of the ASA 140 is the progressive cutting action. The blade movement follows your finger pressure on the trigger, so the cut is controlled rather than simply snapping shut.
This makes a real difference when pruning valuable trees, where clean cut surfaces help reduce the risk of infection and support healthier regrowth.
Two Blade Opening Widths for Faster Workflow
The ASA 140 includes two selectable blade opening widths — 25 mm and 45 mm. This is a practical productivity feature, not a gimmick.
- 25 mm opening speeds up repetitive cutting of thinner growth
- 45 mm full opening is there when you need maximum branch capacity
A quick trigger action allows you to switch to full opening when thicker material appears, keeping work flowing without constant adjustment.
OLED Display for Status, Cut Count and Maintenance Awareness
Professional tools need to communicate clearly. The ASA 140’s OLED display gives an at-a-glance view of battery charge level, selected blade opening width, number of cuts completed and any maintenance requirements.
For teams working through pruning season, that cut-count tracking is particularly useful for monitoring workload and servicing intervals.
Designed as a Full Carrying System, Not Just a Hand Tool
STIHL has built the ASA 140 as a working setup for all-day use. The scope of delivery includes a coordinated carrying system with holster, strap and battery bag worn on the user’s back, keeping weight balanced and the tool easy to access.
The included battery bag connects via a 1.5 m cable, reducing hand weight and making the shears more comfortable during long sessions.
Serious Productivity with the AP Battery Platform
The ASA 140 runs on STIHL’s AP battery system, with AP 30 or AP 300 S recommended depending on your workload. With an AP 300 S battery, STIHL quotes up to 9,000 cuts per charge, making it a realistic tool for full-day pruning work rather than short bursts.
This is where the ASA 140 earns its place — not as a novelty, but as a professional productivity tool that replaces hours of manual strain.
Built for Daily Professional Conditions
With IPX4 splash protection, low vibration levels and a lightweight body of around 1.07 kg (without battery), the ASA 140 is designed for regular outdoor use in demanding working environments.
For professionals managing orchards, plantations or tree care work where pruning volume is high, the STIHL ASA 140 offers a clear advantage: faster cutting, cleaner results, and far less fatigue over the course of a season.
