Description

Why buy the STIHL HS 87 T 30″ Petrol Hedge Trimmer?

  • Professional-grade tool designed for precise, fine trimming of hedges
  • Lightweight design with efficient and powerful STIHL 2-MIX engine
  • Single-sided 30″ (75cm) cutting blade for perfect hedge finishes
  • STIHL Anti-vibration system for reduced operator fatigue during long use
  • Long-life air filter system for extended service intervals
  • Manual fuel pump and tool-free filler cap for easy operation

Professional Precision for a Perfect Finish

The STIHL HS 87 T is a high-performance petrol hedge trimmer designed specifically for professional gardeners, landscapers, and grounds maintenance teams. It is engineered for precision, making it the ideal choice for achieving a flawless, fine finish on long and formal hedges. The single-sided 75cm (30″) blade allows for long, sweeping cuts, ensuring a perfectly level surface with every pass.

Advanced Engine and Operator Comfort

At its core is STIHL’s highly efficient 2-MIX engine, which provides ample power while reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, complying with strict EU Stage V directives. This means lower running costs and a reduced environmental impact. To ensure comfort during extended periods of use, the HS 87 T is equipped with the STIHL anti-vibration system. Buffer and spring elements significantly reduce the transmission of engine vibrations to the handle, minimising operator fatigue and making work more pleasant.

Engineered for Reliability and Ease of Use

STIHL has incorporated several features to enhance reliability and user convenience. The electronic ignition system guarantees a reliable start and smooth engine performance. For quicker and easier starting, especially after breaks in operation, a manual fuel pump (purger) is included to prime the carburettor. Refuelling is made simple with a tool-free bayonet-style cap. The HS 87 T is a robust and dependable tool, built to withstand the demands of daily professional use, as demonstrated by customers of Sims Garden Machinery over many years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the STIHL HS 87 T best suited for?

It’s a professional tool ideal for landscapers, gardeners, and grounds maintenance teams who need to achieve a pristine, fine finish on long, formal hedges. Its single-sided blade makes it lighter and easier to handle for long, straight cutting tasks.

What is the benefit of a single-sided hedge trimmer blade?

A single-sided blade is lighter than a double-sided equivalent, reducing operator fatigue during long periods of use. It is designed for making long, sweeping cuts to achieve a perfectly level and smooth finish, making it the preferred choice for shaping and formal hedge maintenance.

What fuel mix does the HS 87 T use?

The STIHL HS 87 T uses a 50:1 mixture of petrol and high-quality 2-stroke engine oil. For best performance and engine longevity, it is recommended to use STIHL’s own MotoMix pre-mixed fuel or STIHL HP Ultra 2-stroke oil.

Does this hedge trimmer come ready to use?

Yes, when you purchase from an authorised STIHL dealer like Sims Garden Machinery, the HS 87 T is fully assembled, inspected, and tested by our trained mechanics (a process known as Pre-Delivery Inspection or PDI). For local customers, we also offer a personal handover to demonstrate the correct starting and operating procedures.
