Description

Why buy the STIHL HTA 50 10″ Cordless Pole Pruner (Tool Only)?

  • Lightweight cordless pole pruner designed for domestic tree and shrub maintenance
  • Impressive 280cm total length provides excellent reach for high branches
  • Features a high-performance 10″ (25cm) Rollomatic E Mini guide bar and 1/4″ P PM3 saw chain
  • Ergonomic, intuitive controls suitable for both right and left-handed users
  • Integrated branch hook for the easy removal of cuttings from the tree canopy
  • Detachable shaft allows for easy transportation and space-saving storage
  • Part of the flexible STIHL AK System (battery & charger sold separately)

The STIHL HTA 50 is a lightweight cordless pole pruner designed to provide excellent cutting performance for tree maintenance in medium to large domestic gardens. Part of the versatile STIHL AK System, it delivers the power needed to tackle high branches with ease, combining cordless freedom with robust construction.

High-Performance Cutting

At the heart of the HTA 50 is its quality cutting attachment, featuring a 25 cm (10″) Rollomatic E Mini guide bar and a 1/4″ P PM3 saw chain. This combination ensures a clean, efficient cut. The pruner also includes a sturdy branch hook, a practical feature for pulling down and removing small, loose cuttings from the tree canopy after they have been sawn off.

Ergonomic and User-Friendly Design

STIHL has designed the HTA 50 with user comfort and convenience in mind. It features an ergonomic control unit that is intuitive to operate for both right-handed and left-handed users. Side-mounted chain tensioning makes it simple to adjust the saw chain, and a semi-transparent oil tank allows for quick and easy checks of the oil level during operation. For transport and storage, the shaft can be detached, making the unit more compact and manageable.

STIHL AK System Power

As this is the ‘tool only’ version, it is supplied without a battery or charger, making it a cost-effective choice for those already owning tools from the STIHL AK System. The recommended battery is the AK 20, which provides a perfect balance of weight and power, offering up to 45 minutes of working time or approximately 170 cuts in 10x10cm timber. Performance with other compatible batteries is detailed below.

Battery Model Run Time
AK 10 up to 25 mins
AK 20 (Recommended) up to 45 mins
AK 30 up to 60 mins

Please note, the HTA 50 cannot be used with Kombi attachments, the HLA 56 hedge cutting head, an RTS harness, or the HLA 56 shaft extension.

The HTA 50 is part of the STIHL AK System and requires a compatible AK battery and charger, which are sold separately. While it works with the AK 10, AK 20, and AK 30 batteries, STIHL recommends the AK 20 for the best balance of performance and weight. The compatible charger is the AL 101.
