Stihl HLA 135 K Cordless Short-Shaft Long-reach Hedge Trimmer

HLA 135 K Cordless Short-shaft Long-reach Hedge Trimmer: 219 cm, 145° adjustable cordless hedge trimmer with 60 cm / 24″ blade length

The HLA 135 K is the most powerful cordless long-reach hedge trimmer from STIHL, designed with professional landscapers and gardeners in mind. This short-shaft variation of the HLA 135 is ideal for pruning, trimming and maintenance work on shorter hedges, shrubs, bushes, in road maintenance and in local authority work. It’s lightweight, has low noise output and low vibrations – making it perfect for long-periods of work throughout the day in noise-sensitive environments.

Powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery, it has excellent balance which provides less fatigue during operation. An ergonomic control handle with three different levels lets the user control the speed of the cutter blade during. The tool can be used by both left- and right-handed users comfortably and efficiently too.

The short-shaft hedge trimmer has a length of 219 cm (50 cm less than the HLA 135), which makes it perfect for cutting tall and wide hedges. The 60 cm / 24″ laser-cut double-sided, double-edged, diamond ground blades are friction-optimised, meaning they have high-cutting performance and help to extend the length of the battery during use. The cutter head can be adjusted by up to 145°, letting you tackle all angles of hedges. And the blades provides a clean cutting pattern thanks to the high acceleration of the EC motor. The head of the hedge trimmer can be folded flat for easy transport (reducing the total length to 158 cm) which makes it easy to transport the tool for those working in garden maintenance businesses. Plus, the tool is IPX4 rated, so it can be used in rain and wet conditions too.

When used with the recommended AP 200 S battery, the HLA 135 K has a working time of up to 64 minutes. What’s more, this battery provides perfect balance when used, making work even more comfortable!
