    Standard features

    • Blade tip protector

      The tip protector comes as standard and makes cutting near the ground or along walls easier while protecting the special cutters from damage.

    • Two handed design

      The tool is easily started by activating both switches on the loop handle and the rear handle at the same time. The cutting speed is continuously variable using the rear control – for a fine and precise cut. Especially practical: the two handed design is suited for both left-handed and right-handed users.

    • Hanging eye

      The hedgetrimmers can also be conveniently hung up on the wall with the practical hanging eye.

    • Quiet operation

      The STIHL COMPACT cordless power system devices are so quiet you don't even need ear protection.

    • Innovative cutting system

      The blade shape has been optimised to catch branches and hold them against the blade durig the cut and serves as an integrated blade guard.

    • Intermediate battery position in the device

      The battery can be inserted into the device in 2 stages. In the first locking stage – the intermediate position – the battery is secured in the device but does not touch the contacts in the device. In the second locking stage – the operating position – the battery is completely inserted and touches the contacts in the device.

    • Soft grip with control lever

      The soft grip with its control lever for switching on and off and control lever lock absorbs some of the vibrations and is extremely easy to grip.
