As the first pole pruner in the STIHL AK Homeowner System, the battery-powered HTA 50 allows you to trim hard-to-reach areas in your yard with confidence. Featuring a lightweight extended-reach design, the HTA 50 can be comfortably operated with its over-nine-feet overall length—or nearly 11 feet when paired with an optional 20-inch shaft extension. Even with its long reach, the HTA 50 is still easy to store and transport due to its split-shaft design. A ten-inch guide bar with ¼-inch STIHL PICCO™ saw chain provides exceptionally smooth, clean cuts—perfect for all your tree-care needs. The HTA 50 is quiet to operate, making it a great choice for noise-sensitive environments and allowing for operation without the need for hearing protection. Utilizing the AK 20 battery and AL 101 charger, the HTA 50 will fit seamlessly into your existing lineup of AK System battery-powered tools.
