Stihl HLA86 Long Reach Electric Telescopic Hedgecutter

Our first electric power tool for hedge cutting was purchased during October.

It is a telescopic version that gives us greater flexibility.  We also ordered a rear handle separately to offer the body some protection.

The benefits we are finding:

  1. Longer than expected battery life
  2. Less wearing parts as the motor is directly to the blades
  3. Less noise
  4. Lower running costs
  5. Lower vibration to the user
  6. Less fatigue during use
  7. Cleaner to transport

We coupled the Stihl HLA86 with a pair of Stihl AP 500 S batteries and have found 2x to be adequate for heavy use for a working day.

“I would like to thank the Beddow team that undertook the felling and removal of a number of conifers and stumps in my garden.

The team arrived promptly at the time confirmed the day prior to undertaking the work.

Each member of the team was professional and courteous throughout and ensured the site was left clean and tidy.

I have no reservations in recommending Beddow should anyone require any trees felling and/or stump grinding”.

“It was a pleasure dealing with this company.

The situation was assessed by Mike and the options were clearly explained. Within an hour of him leaving our property we received an email setting out all the options with photographs, diagrams and a firm quote.

One team arrived spot on time to 1st of all make the tree safe but decided they could fell the tree on the same day. They did this with great efficiency and cleared everything away. The stump was removed the following week with equal efficiency. Both teams were very polite and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Ten out of ten all round.

Loved their bright orange vehicles.

Very professional looking.

Thank you very much”.
