Put the “edge” in hedge with the lightweight and powerful precision of STIHL hedge trimmers. Whether your hedges need to be cut down to size or just need a face lift, STIHL gas hedge trimmers and electric hedge trimmers help make your landscaping the envy of the neighborhood. Lightweight maneuverability reduces operator discomfort so you can enjoy your time working in the yard.

The STIHL HLA 56 is the first extended-reach hedge trimmer within the AK System. Powered by the same 36-volt lithium-ion battery as other products within the AK System, this hedge trimmer provides homeowners with more versatility by combining the benefits of a battery-powered product with the ability to accomplish difficult trimming tasks. A high cutting speed of 2,800 strokes per minute allows for clean and efficient cutting, even when dealing with larger branches. At 11.1 pounds (with AK 20 battery) and with an articulating cutting blade offering a 135-degree range, the HLA 56 leverages optimal cutting performance with the lightweight portability needed to get the job done.

Note: Batteries and chargers can be purchased separately or as a combined set with tool.
