Stihl HLA 86 Long Reach Telescopic Cordless Hedge Trimmer

Please note that this model is only available as a tool only without battery and charger. If you do not already have a battery or charger, please make sure that you add these to your basket.

The HLA 86 is a telescopic long-reach hedge trimmer designed for professional users. It’s ideal for landscapers working on tall hedges where extra length is needed and is perfect for cutting, trimming and maintenance work. 

Powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery, it has excellent balance which provides less fatigue during operation. An ergonomic control handle with self-resetting Ergo lever means both left- and right-handed users can use the HLA 86 comfortably and efficiently. As the tool is battery powered, it’s quiet too; meaning you use it for work in noise-sensitive areas such as neighbourhoods, hospitals or care homes. 

The long-reach hedge trimmer has a length of 260-330 cm, which makes it perfect for cutting tall and wide hedges. The 50 cm/20” laser-cut double-sided, double-edged, diamond ground blades can be adjusted by up to 115° (-45° to +70°) and provides a clean cutting pattern thanks to the high acceleration of the EC engine. The head of the HLA 86 can be folded flat for easy transport (reducing the total length to 187 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 86 has a working time of up to 144 minutes. What’s more, this battery provides perfect balance when used, making work even more comfortable!

Don’t forget to check your work area for wildlife before starting to use your tool. In particular, you should check for nesting birds before trimming hedges, as well as checking for other small animals such as hedgehogs before trimming long grass.
