Cordless Control
If you are blessed with tall hedges as a fence line on your property you will need a Pole Hedge Trimmer. These are designed to give you a steady grip and good control when you are cutting well above your head. If you are looking for something lightweight and versatile for your taller hedges, the Stihl Shop Mt Maunganui has a couple of great models. You could go for an HLA 56 which is a light Cordless Long Reach Hedge Trimmer, this will give you a range of -45° to +90° without compromising on safety.
Longer & Stronger
A Pole Hedge Trimmer like the HLA 56 will allow you to get those top branches without having to clamber up a ladder and it’s also really robust. This model will let you easily cut through thicknesses up to 16mm, and this should be ample for most residential properties. You can also get an extension with this model if you are really reaching, the Stihl Shop Mt Maunganui team can supply you with an extra 50 cm shaft for those hard-to-reach spots.
Home Hedge Trimmers
For more of a quick whip around on less heavy-duty hedges, there are some great hedge trimmer options available at the Stihl Shop Mt Maunganui - pop in and have our staff show you some Home Hedge Trimmers.
