HTA 50 Cordless Pole Pruner - AK System

The first cordless pole pruner available in the STIHL AK System, designed specifically for homeowners. With a length of 280 cm it makes light work of thinning out shrubs, pruning fruit trees or removing dangerous branches in the garden, all from the safety and comfort of the ground. Easy controls and a rubberised grip on the handle tube allow for a comfortable working stance and good control whilst cutting. The shaft splits in half for easy transport, and a storage bracket is included meaning the STIHL HTA 50 can be stored tidily on your garage or shed wall. The chain is driven directly by the motor in the cutting head. This provides excellent torque for reliable cutting performance, and also cuts down on weight and vibration thanks to the absence of a drive shaft. The branch hook is ideal for pulling down smaller branches suspended in the tree canopy so you can clear the way for pruning other branches. The chain oil tank has a handy inspection window to keep an eye on the oil level. You should check this every time the battery is recharged and top it up as necessary. Finally, the side-mounted chain tensioner makes looking after the guide bar and chain easy, as all that’s required is a flat head screwdriver or the tool supplied with the machine.
