HLA 135 K

 

The HLA 135 K is the most powerful cordless long-reach hedge trimmer from STIHL, designed with professional landscapers and gardeners in mind. This short-shaft variation of the HLA 135 is ideal for pruning, trimming and maintenance work on shorter hedges, shrubs, bushes, in road maintenance and in local authority work. It’s lightweight, has low noise output and low vibrations – making it perfect for long-periods of work throughout the day in noise-sensitive environments. 

Powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery, it has excellent balance which provides less fatigue during operation. An ergonomic control handle with three different levels lets the user control the speed of the cutter blade during. The tool can be used by both left- and right-handed users comfortably and efficiently too. 

The short-shaft hedge trimmer has a length of 219 cm (50 cm less than the HLA 135), which makes it perfect for cutting tall and wide hedges. The 60 cm / 24” laser-cut double-sided, double-edged, diamond ground blades are friction-optimised, meaning they have high-cutting performance and help to extend the length of the battery during use. The cutter head can be adjusted by up to 145°, letting you tackle all angles of hedges. And the blades provides a clean cutting pattern thanks to the high acceleration of the EC motor. The head of the hedge trimmer can be folded flat for easy transport (reducing the total length to 158 cm) which makes it easy to transport the tool for those working in garden maintenance businesses. Plus, the tool is IPX4 rated, so it can be used in rain and wet conditions too. 

When used with the recommended AP 200 S battery, the HLA 135 K has a working time of up to 64 minutes. What’s more, this battery provides perfect balance when used, making work even more comfortable!

 

Features

Eyelet for shoulder strap

The HLA has a special eyelet for use with a shoulder strap.

Battery compartment in the engine casing

DIRECT POWER SUPPLY TO THE tool. With this tool, you can insert the required battery from the STIHL AP System directly into the engine housing. This increases your mobility and flexibility when working.

Loop handle

MORE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT IN NARROW SPACES. The loop handle makes work in narrow spacers easier, such as clearing between bushes, shrubs or park benches. The practical handle position allows you to move your tool freely and to guide it easily and precisely, even in confined spaces.

Metal mesh air filter

OPTIMAL ENGINE COOLING. The air filter with fine metal mesh cleans the air and in this way ensures optimum engine cooling. As it is easy to clean, it also offers a long service life.

Double-sided cutting blade

FOR OPTIMAL HEDGE CUTTING. The double-sided cutting blade facilitates optimum hedge cutting: vertically, horizontally and in corners. Thanks to the double-sided cutting blades, you can effectively trim or prune your hedge, as well as thicker branches.

Ergonomic control handle with speef adjuster

The speed can be controlled in three stages using the ergonomic control handle, which has a built-in LED display. This ensures energy-efficient work and long running times.

Lightweight, robust magnesium transmission

LOW WEIGHT WITH HIGH DURABILITY. Especially in the professional sector, low weight is of great importance for work. Thanks to the use of lightweight magnesium, you benefit from weight reduction without any compromise in terms of transmission robustness. This relieves the strain on you as you work and ensures that the tool has a long service life.

Fleet management with the SMART Connector

OPTIMISED tool USE. Thanks to STIHL connected, you always have an overview of your tool fleet and can automatically receive tool data such as age, operating hours, and maintenance status. This allows you to determine the ideal fleet size based on digital information, as it makes clear how the tool fleet is being used. The Smart Connector collects the required data and transfers it to a tool. All recorded tool data is available for viewing and evaluation in the STIHL connected App and the STIHL connected Portal.

Constant power

When using other brands of battery tools, the performance can sometimes decrease during work as the battery discharges. This isn't the case with STIHL battery-powered tools. Thanks to the intelligent electronics, your tool will work with consistently high power across the entire battery charge, until there is no energy left in the battery.

IPX4 certified

SPLASHWATER PROTECTION. The AP 200 S is IPX4 certified thanks to the encapsulated electronics and sealing of each individual cell. It means that the battery is protected against splashwater from all sides and can be used in rainy conditions.
