STIHL HTA 160 Cordless Telescopic Pole Pruner – Extended Reach Arborist Tool
The STIHL HTA 160 Cordless Telescopic Pole Pruner is designed for professionals who need ladder-free pruning up to 4.4 m. With a telescopic shaft and powerful EC motor, it combines flexibility and performance. Furthermore, its lightweight and quiet operation make it suitable for urban and sensitive environments.
Adjustable Telescopic Shaft
Thanks to its telescopic shaft, the HTA 160 adjusts from 2.3 m to 4.4 m. This gives you maximum reach while remaining safely on the ground. Moreover, it provides good handling at all extension levels.
Powerful EC Motor with Efficient Cuts
The high-torque EC motor drives a 30 cm Picco Micro 3 chain. As a result, it makes clean cuts through tough branches. Additionally, the motor demands minimal maintenance and runs quietly.
Extended Runtime with AP Battery
When used with the recommended AP 200 S battery, the HTA 160 delivers up to 35 minutes of constant operation. However, pairing it with a larger AP 300 S battery can extend runtime even further. This supports most commercial pruning tasks without interruption.
Professional-Level Ergonomics
The tool features an ergonomic in-line multi-function handle. It also has a balanced shaft and low overall weight. Consequently, fatigue remains low during long pruning sessions. Plus, the soft-grip handle provides secure control.
Built-In Safety & User Convenience
Engineers designed the HTA 160 with a retaining latch to prevent accidental starts. It also includes a side-access chain tensioner for quick adjustments on-site. In addition, a branch hook and foot support add practical safety features.
Ideal for Noise-Sensitive Areas
Operating quietly with zero emissions, the HTA 160 performs well in residential zones, parks, or schools. Additionally, it’s compatible with STIHL Smart Connector 2 A, which helps with maintenance planning and tool tracking.
