Description:

The HTA 160 is a powerful, professional, battery-powered pole pruner with a telescoping shaft. The HTA 160, the most powerful cordless pole pruner in the AP Battery System, is ideal for tree maintenance and fruit orchards. The telescoping shaft features a unique, square-shaft design that stays strong and rigid, so you can prune high branches up to 13’3” with ease and precision. Its lightweight gearbox design provides high-speed precision while pruning; and when not pruning, a foot mount support keeps the machine from resting directly on the ground. You can control the machine’s speed with the variable-speed trigger, optimizing performance for the longest run time. The HTA 160’s brushless motor is efficient and virtually maintenance free. This pole pruner is also designed to seamlessly connect with the STIHL Smart connector 2 A, which allows you to take advantage of the STIHL connected platform and manage your fleet like never before.

Features:

• Telescoping Pole - With an adjustable shaft, telescoping pole pruners can cut branches up to 16 feet above ground.
• Foot Mount Included - The included foot mount provides added stability for resting the machine on the ground while also protecting the motor housing.
• Durable Square Shaft - With a square-shaft design, the telescoping shaft has increased rigidity, providing control and precision while reducing fatigue.
• Outboard Mounting of Guide Bar and Saw Chain - Outboard mounting of guide bar and saw chain allow for better flush cutting than other designs.
• Robust Branch Hook - The robust branch hook helps users remove loose clippings from trees.
• Efficient and Virtually Maintenance-Free Motor - The brushless motor is ideal for noise-sensitive environments with virtually zero maintenance required.
• Lightweight Sprocket Cover with Captive Bar Nuts - The sprocket cover is lightweight and the captive bar nuts are held securely in place for efficient saw chain maintenance.
• Slotted Sprocket Cover - Clears chips and sawdust to reduce clogging to reduce downtime.
• Side Access Chain Tensioner - More convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw.
• Retaining Latch - All STIHL Battery powered products feature a retaining latch that is designed to prevent the unit from unintentional starts when the battery is inserted.
• Variable-Speed Trigger - The variable-speed trigger allows precise control for each task.
• Multi-Function Control Handle - Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle helps makes it easier to complete tasks so the operator’s hand never has to leave the handle.
• High-Tech Polymer Housings - Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
• Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature - The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
