Professional Cordless Pole Pruner for Precision Work
The STIHL HTA 150 is a battery-powered pole pruner specifically engineered for professionals in forestry, landscaping, and orchard maintenance. Its design centres around a short, rigid shaft which provides excellent control for pruning, thinning, and maintaining branches up to 20cm in diameter. As a battery-powered tool, the HTA 150 boasts very low noise emissions, making it an outstanding choice for work in noise-sensitive locations such as residential estates, schools, and hospitals.
Power, Performance, and Durability
Powered by the professional STIHL AP System of lithium-ion batteries, the HTA 150 features a high-efficiency EC motor coupled with a lightweight yet remarkably robust magnesium transmission. This combination ensures consistent power delivery and a long service life. It comes fitted as standard with a 3/8” P Picco Micro 3 (PM3) saw chain for maximum cutting performance. For more delicate tasks, such as maintaining fruit trees, it can also be fitted with a 1/4” P Picco Micro 3 (PM3) chain.
Ergonomic Design and Intelligent Features
STIHL has focused on user comfort and control with the HTA 150. The lightweight cutting head makes it easier to manoeuvre between cuts, reducing operator fatigue. The main control handle includes an intuitive LED display for at-a-glance status checks. A standard protective foot prevents the motor casing from making direct contact with the ground, while a fine metal mesh air filter ensures optimal engine cooling for an extended service life. The entire unit is IPX4 certified, offering protection against splashing water for reliable operation in typical British weather. It also features a mounting point for the STIHL Smart Connector 2 A, allowing for seamless integration into a professional fleet management system.
Please note: This is the tool only. Battery and charger are sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the STIHL HTA 150 pole pruner for?
The STIHL HTA 150 is designed for professional users such as arborists, landscapers, and those working in forestry or orchard maintenance. Its short, rigid shaft provides the precision needed for thinning and pruning, while its low-noise operation makes it perfect for use in residential or public areas where noise levels are a concern.
What battery does the HTA 150 use?
The HTA 150 is compatible with all batteries in the STIHL AP System. For an optimal balance of performance and weight, STIHL recommends using the AP 300 S battery, which can provide up to 60 minutes of runtime on a single charge.
Is the battery included with the HTA 150?
No, this listing is for the ‘Tool Only’ version of the HTA 150. The battery and charger must be purchased separately. This is ideal for professionals who already own other tools and batteries from the STIHL AP System.
How long is the STIHL HTA 150?
The total length of the STIHL HTA 150 is 196 cm. It is classified as a short-shaft pole pruner, designed for precise control and manoeuvrability rather than for reaching the highest branches.
