Details & SPECIFICATIONS

Details

The HLA 56 is a light Cordless Long Reach Hedge Trimmer which can be used for cutting taller hedges in your garden. You can cut branches up to 16 mm in diameter and the cutting head is adjustable to cut angles ranging from -45° to +90° offering you a lot of versatility.

The total length of the HLA 56 is 210 cm, you can safely trim tall hedges without standing on a ladder and for storage and transportation it can be quickly taken apart without the need for tools (when taken apart the longest section is 115 cm). For really tall hedges we have an optional 50 cm extension shaft available.

The double-sided blades cut smoothly and efficiently on both the upwards and downwards stroke. The blades are droplet shaped which helps to guide branches between the cutting teeth for a precise and even finish.

The HLA 56 is part of our AK Battery System range of tools with interchangeable batteries - the battery in this tool can also be used in other tools in this range including a Line Trimmer, Blower, Lawnmowers, and Chainsaws.

Run time on recommended AK 20 battery: Up to 100 minutes

Run time on AK 10 battery: Up to 50 minutes

Run time on AK 30 battery: Up to 120 minutes

Run times quoted are based on ideal operating conditions. Times will vary depending on load and conditions.

Features

Features

Quiet

STIHL Cordless/Battery tools are so quiet you don't even need to wear ear protection.
Simple Head Angle Adjustment

The blade angle can be easily adjusted without tools from -45 ° to + 90 ° this provides the versatility to cut both the tops and sides of hedges with ease.

Split shaft

The shaft of the HLA 56 can be separate using the clamp with toggle screw. The tool can therefore be easily transported and stored.
Blade Tip Protector

The tip protector helps protect the blades from damage when cutting near the ground or along walls.

Neutral Battery Position

There are two positions for the battery in the tool - in the first neutral position, the battery is secured in the machine but is not connected to the contacts. This means you can carry the tool around without accidentally starting it. In the second position, the battery is fully pushed in and you can easily start the tool.
Wall Mounting Bracket

There is a bracket included in the box, so you can easily mount your HLA 56 on the wall in your shed.

Cutting Blades with Cut Protection

The blades on this tool are diamond ground so you can achieve a neat finish on your hedges. They also have integrated cut protection which overlaps the working blades, this reduces the risk of the blades making contact with your leg.

Questions & Answers

FAQ'S

Q: How long will the Battery last?

A: The recommend AK 20 Battery will last up to 100 minutes or enough time to trim up to 380m² of hedges. 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 AK 20 Battery it takes 180 minutes, or to charge it up to 80%, it takes 135 minutes with the AL 101 charger.

Q: Are the Batteries Interchangeable?

A: Yes, all of the tools in the COMPACT Cordless System use the same style of battery. There are three different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the HLA 56, we recommend the medium capacity AK 20 battery as it will provide the perfect balance between wieght and power, but you can also use the AK 10 and AK 30 battery in this tool.

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.

Q: Does this tool come with a warranty?

A: Yes, the HLA 56 comes with a domestic 2 year STIHL warranty
