The Stihl HSA 86 is the latest battery-operated hedge trimmer from the trusted brand. This tool is lightweight for comfort and highly efficient whilst being completely cord-free for user-friendliness. Additionally, the Stihl electric motor ensures a steady stroke rate, suitable for cutting through dense shrubbery with ease. Further improvement is the extended battery run time.
- Available in an 18-inch or 24-inch blade,
- No need to worry about long leads or petrol emissions,
- Double-sided cutting blades with 33mm tooth spacing,
- Ideal for pruning thick branches,
- 2-year warranty (domestic only).
The Stihl HSA 86 is more efficient than its predecessor.
When the HSA 85 came onto the landscaping scene, it was a revelation. A fantastic seller for Stihl fans and still highly regarded as one of the best cordless hedge trimmers on the market. So how has the HSA 86 improved that of its previous model?
Well, you still get the super sharp double-sided blade for more content trimming, available in a 45 centimetre or 65-centimetre blade. Tooth spacing is at the 1.3-inch gap to help chop into those larger twigs; which the HSA86 certainly has the power to
overcome.
Enjoy effortless control and functional design of this hedge trimmer.
It has a functional two-handed grip design to control the Stihl cordless hedge trimmer (suitable for both left and right-handers). To start the tool, activate both switches on the loop handle and rear handle together. Controlling the blades’ variable
speed is simplistic with the rear control, allowing for the distinct and clean cutting action.
Additionally, the loop handle grip helps effortlessly control the battery-operated HSA 86 with ease. Combine this with the trimmer’s lightness – just 3.3 kilograms without the blades – means it is less tiring to use over long periods.
Fortunately, the housing design is smooth and robust, so if you are deep in a hedge or thick shrubbery, your cordless trimmer won’t get caught in long, sharp branches.
For further safety, a tip protector comes as standard with the Stihl HSA 86 to make cutting more easygoing near obstacles such as walls, protecting the sharp blades from damage. A blade cover is ready to ensure safe storage and transport.
Work for longer with faster charging and better run times.
Fortunately, this Stihl cordless hedge cutter works with all of the AP range of batteries. The standard 36 V AP 100 will allow you yo operate the HSA 86 for just over an hour.
Why not increase your run time with the following batteries:
- AP 200: Run time up to 144 mins
- AP 300: Run time up to 180 mins
We recommend the AL 300 quick charger with any of the batteries available, as this will decrease the charge times from 250 minutes to just 75 minutes for the AP 300.
With the Stihl HSA 86, you will be pleasantly surprised by the long run times compared to previous models.

Good product. Nice that the Stihl batteries can work in other Stihl products meaning only 1 battery on jobs.

Really comfy to operate, not too much vibration. Alot of kick for an electrics model though. Nice

Great running time, would expect it to drain faster but no problems so far.

Powerful, yet light and easy to move around. For a man, I would imagine it’s the closest thing to a lightsaber. Cheers Mowers2go

4 stars only because I purchased the AP100 battery which didn’t seem to run for as long with my HSA 86, for this cordless hedge trimmer I should have got the AP 300 & AL 300 charger
