The HLA 66 is a high performance battery powered Long Reach Hedge Trimmer. It is ergonomically designed and comfortable to use for left and right handed operators. The HLA 66 is also well-balanced reducing fatigue when it is used for long periods of time.
Transporting the tool is no problem as it can be folded down to a length of just 125 cm to easily fit into a car. The head is adjustable to suit vertical or overhead cutting, which means it can easily trim tall or wide hedges.
This is a great choice for small garden maintenance businesses, gardeners and landscapers.
The HLA 66 is part of our AP Cordless System - the battery can be used on a wide range of other tools from the AP range.
Run time with AP 200 battery: Up to 144 min
Run time with AP 300 battery: Up to 180 min
Run time with AP 300 S battery: Up to 223 min
Run times quoted are based on ideal operating conditions. Times will vary depending on load and conditions.

Q: How long will the Battery last?
A: The recommended AP 100 Battery will last up to 72 minutes, this does depend on what is being cut and how the tool is being used.
Q: How long does it take to charge?
A: To fully charge an AP 100 Battery it takes 100 minutes, or to charge it up to 80%, it takes 75 minutes with the AL 101 charger.
Q: Are the Batteries Interchangeable?
A: Yes, all of the tools in the PRO Cordless System use the same style of battery. There are 7 different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the HLA 66, we recommend the smaller capacity AP 100 battery as it is lighter and means the tool is perfectly balanced, but you can use any of the other batteries in this range.
Q: Does the performance of the Battery reduce as it depletes?
A: No there is no gradual drop in performance – the battery runs at full power until it is fully depleted.
Q: Will the blades need sharpening?
A: Keeping the blades sharp will give a neat cut on whatever you are trimming. If you notice that the blades are getting jammed easily or the machine is struggling, the blades may need sharpening. Our STIHL SHOP retailers can do this for you.
Q: What should I wear when using this tool?
A: We recommend that you wear snug-fitting clothes, eye protection, gloves and sturdy boots or shoes, and tie back long hair.

Very easy to use, battery lasts a long time.
Awesome product, but to make them last longer, fill them with good quality grease and keep them clean.
Surprised by power and battery life which is excellent.
Trims a hedge and not to heavy - ideal 👍
This is a great piece of kit. Nicely balanced and light. Plenty of power and quiet. Folds for easy storage. Battery life is much better than I expected. It may benefit from a faster blade speed, but I guess that would mean a heavier gear box and it did cut everything I threw at it without hesitation. I cut around 30 large hedges a year and this trimmer is more than capable of dealing with them.
