Standard features
Double sided cutting blades
STIHL hedge trimmers with double-sided cutting blades cut both vertically and horizontally.
STIHL EC engine
Alongside their impressive performance, the professional hedge trimmers in the PRO cordless power system have an EC engine with automatic rotation direction switching. This makes it possible to release the cutter when necessary.
Screw-on tip protector
Protects the tip of the hedge trimmer blade from wear, and makes it easier to cut close to walls and the ground.
Screw-on cut protection
Reduces risk of injury to the user and guarantees easy replacement when worn.
Loop handle with inner switch
Comfortable to hold and saves energy during operation, particularly when working for extended periods.
Rotating multi-function handle
Whether for side or top cutting, professional hedge trimmers are always comfortable and balanced in operation. It’s very easy to put the rotating multi-function handle into the optimum position for the task at hand.
Cutting variation (R)
The R variations of the STIHL HS 81 and STIHL HS 86 are designed specifically for large volume cutting. They feature a cutting blade with wide tooth spacing and longer tooth height. The gearing allows a high cutting power at medium stroke rate. The R variations provide the possibility of cutting of thicker branches and completing clearing work faster and more easily.
Adjustable blade stroke
The blade stroke is 3-setting adjustable. This provides the ideal blade speed for any task. The blade stroke is adjusted using the control cockpit on the rotary handle. The control cockpit rotates with the handle, so that the button is always within easy reach regardless of the selected rotary handle setting.
