The HLA 86 battery-powered long reach hedge trimmer delivers a powerful but quiet performance when trimming tall or wide hedges and shrubs.

For extra reach, the shaft is telescopic extending from 260cm to 330cm in one simple movement using the tool-free quick release mechanism. The head is adjustable by 115º so you can angle it to perfectly suit the task whether you are trimming hedges horizontally or vertically and you can also fold it over towards the shaft for compact storage or transport.

The electronically controlled motor is particularly efficient so you get the most out of the battery and the operating handle is comfortable and easy to use. For greater comfort, you could consider adding the RTS Super Harness.

  • Run time on recommended AP 200 battery: Up to 144 minutes
  • Run time on AP 300 S battery: Up to 223 minutes

Tips

#1Cleaning your HLA 86

When you have finished using the hedge trimmer, remove the battery and wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. We also suggest spraying a little resin solvent, like STIHL Superclean, onto the blades to remove sap or resin, protect them from corrosion and stop them getting stuck together.


#2Looking after your battery

Don't use a damp or wet battery in your HLA 86 and avoid using them in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold). To find out more about looking after your battery, read our blog post.


#3Storing your HLA 86

Store your HLA 86 in a clean and dry area and keep out of the reach of children at all times.
