Description

Why buy the STIHL HSA 60.1 24″ Cordless Hedge Trimmer (Tool Only)?

  • Powerful cordless performance for demanding domestic hedge trimming.
  • Features a 60cm (24″) laser-cut, diamond-ground double-sided blade.
  • Rotatable multi-function handle provides ergonomic comfort for any cutting angle.
  • STIHL anti-vibration system significantly reduces user fatigue during longer tasks.
  • Lightweight at just 3.5 kg (excluding battery) for excellent handling.
  • Tool only – requires a compatible STIHL AK System battery and charger.

Powerful Cordless Trimming for Home Gardens

The STIHL HSA 60.1 is a high-performance cordless hedge trimmer from the AK System, specifically designed for homeowners tackling demanding applications like trimming bushes, shrubs, and medium-to-large hedges. Its powerful 36V EC motor delivers a consistent stroke rate of 3000 rpm, providing the cutting performance needed for a pristine finish. Being battery-powered, it operates quietly, making it an excellent choice for use in noise-sensitive residential areas.

Advanced Blade Technology

Equipped with a 60cm (24″) double-sided cutting blade, the HSA 60.1 ensures a clean, smart finish. The blades are laser-cut and diamond-ground for exceptional sharpness and durability. A unique teardrop shape on the blade effectively guides twigs and branches into the cutters for a reliable cut. Should a blockage occur, the anti-block system intelligently changes the rotational direction of the blades to free itself. To protect the blade when working near the ground or along walls, a screw-on tip protector is included as standard.

Ergonomic and User-Friendly Design

STIHL has engineered the HSA 60.1 with user comfort as a priority. The innovative rotatable multi-function handle can be turned 90 degrees to the left or right, allowing for a comfortable and ergonomic grip whether cutting vertically or horizontally. This flexibility is a significant benefit for both left-handed and right-handed users. Combined with the STIHL anti-vibration system, which dampens engine oscillations, user fatigue is minimised. The tool’s lightweight design of just 3.5 kg (without battery) further enhances its manoeuvrability and ease of use.

STIHL AK Battery System & Runtimes

This version of the HSA 60.1 is supplied as the tool only, requiring a battery and charger from the versatile STIHL AK System. This is ideal for users who already own other tools from the AK range. The system provides excellent balance and impressive run times, allowing you to work efficiently without interruption.

Battery Model Working Time
AK 10 Up to 70 mins
AK 20 (Recommended) Up to 140 mins
AK 30 / AK 30 S Up to 175 mins

Please note: Runtimes are estimates and can vary depending on the application. Charge times depend on the charger used.
