Stihl HLA 40 Cordless Long-reach Hedge Trimmer – AS System

Compact and lightweight, the HLA 40 long-reach hedge trimmer is the first of its kind in the AS System, and is ideal for cutting taller hedges, shrubs and bushes in your garden.

It’s powered by an interchangeable AS 2 lithium-ion battery, which can be used in other STIHL AS System tools, such as the cordless garden pruners, leaf blower, grass trimmer, powered secateurs and more.

The HLA 40 has a telescopic shaft and adjustable cutter bar, making it versatile for a range of trimming tasks. It has a length of 2.6 metres, making it perfect for cutting tall hedges from the ground. The long-reach hedge trimmer is incredibly lightweight, weighing 3.7 kg, and is comfortable to use thanks to the soft-grip handle. The tool-free telescopic shaft is easy to adjust to your desired height, and the shoulder strap clips on quickly for added comfort when working on longer jobs. 

The laser-cut, diamond-ground, and hardened blades offer excellent cutting performance. With tool-free blade angle adjustment, you can set the cutter bar to 3 different angles, from minus 45° degrees to plus 70° degrees – allowing you to easily tackle the sides and tops of hedges. A tip protector shields the blades when working close to the ground or against walls. 

For transport and storage, the hedge trimmer can be split which reduces the overall length of the hedge trimmer from 260 to 115 cm, making it easy to carry and store away in your garage or shed. The HLA 40 has a 45 cm cutter bar, helping you work efficiently and get the job done quickly, to a high standard.
