The Stihl HLA 135 K cordless short-shaft long-reach hedge trimmer is built for professionals who need precise control and high cutting performance when working on shorter hedges and dense shrubbery.

STIHL HLA 135 K AP Battery Run Time
| Battery | AP 20 | AP 200 S | AP 30 | AP 300 S | AP 500 S |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Run time | 50 mins | 64 mins | 91 mins | 95 mins | 114 mins |
The HLA 135 K is compatible with all AP batteries shown above. It can also be used with AR 2000 L and AR 3000 L backpack batteries for much longer run times: up to 345 minutes with AR 2000 L and up to 520 minutes with AR 3000 L.
Why choose the HLA135K cordless hedge trimmer?
Compact design for detailed shaping
With a total length of 219 cm, the Stihl HLA 135 K is 50 cm shorter than the standard HLA 135, making it perfect for tight spaces, lower hedges, and precise trimming around obstacles. When folded, it reduces to just 158 cm, allowing easy transport and storage.
Friction-optimised blades for longer runtime
The 60 cm double-sided blades are laser-cut, diamond-ground, and friction-optimised to deliver clean, accurate cuts while extending battery life. The wide 34 mm tooth spacing allows you to tackle thicker branches confidently without snagging.
Fully adjustable 145° cutting head
The adjustable cutter head can be set up to 145°, so you can comfortably work on hedge tops, sides, and even ground cover without awkward bending or repositioning. This versatility makes the hla135k ideal for shaping complex hedge designs and reaching tricky angles.
Ergonomic and efficient handling
The lightweight magnesium transmission, loop handle, and centralised battery slot give the HLA 135 K excellent balance and control. An ergonomic control handle with three-speed settings and LED display lets you adjust power to match the task, saving energy and reducing fatigue.
Quiet, low-emission operation
Powered by STIHL’s AP battery system, the HLA135K runs quietly with zero direct emissions, making it perfect for noise-sensitive areas like residential gardens, schools, and parks.
Connectivity-ready for smarter fleet management
Compatible with the STIHL Smart Connector, the Stihl HLA 135 K can be integrated into your tool tracking system to record runtime, plan maintenance, and manage your equipment efficiently.
Flexible battery options
While optimised for the AP 200 battery (up to 64 minutes runtime), the HLA 135 K also works with higher-capacity batteries such as the AP 300 S or AR backpack batteries for extended use. Choose the right balance of weight and runtime to suit your tasks.
