Battery-powered angular long-reach hedge trimmer with split shaft — for tall hedges and noise-sensitive areas
The STIHL HLA 56 Long-Reach Hedge Trimmer is a battery-powered angular long-reach hedge trimmer from the STIHL AK system, designed for cutting tall hedges, shrubs and garden cover in domestic gardens, grounds and noise-sensitive residential areas. With a total length of 210 cm and a 45 cm double-sided cutting blade, it reaches the top and lateral surfaces of tall hedges that would be inaccessible with a conventional hedge trimmer.
STIHL CONSTANT power technology ensures consistently high performance throughout the battery charge — unlike other battery tools that lose power as the battery depletes. The blade angle adjusts without tools from -45° to +90° via two side buttons, allowing precise cutting on both the top and lateral faces of hedges at any angle. The screw-on blade tip protector protects the cutting attachment when working close to the ground.
The split shaft reduces the total length from 210 cm to 115 cm without any tools, simplifying transport and compact wall storage. A wall mount bracket is included as standard. The loop handle improves manoeuvrability in confined spaces — between shrubs, along walls and in areas with limited access. The intuitive control system includes an ERGO lever for continuous operation without re-triggering, and an auto-return lock lever that prevents accidental activation. The controls suit both right- and left-handed operators.
The HLA 56 is compatible with all STIHL AK system batteries (recommended battery: AK 20) and the AL 101 charger. Available as a bare tool (without battery and charger) or as a kit with AK 20 and AL 101.
