Product information & specifications

STIHL HLA 140 K Cordless Short-shaft Long-reach Hedge Trimmer – AP System

Please note that this model is only available as a tool only without battery and charger. If you do not already have a battery or charger, please make sure that you add these to your basket.

The HLA 140 K is a powerful cordless long-reach hedge trimmer from STIHL, designed with professional landscapers and gardeners in mind. This short-shaft variation of the HLA 140 is ideal for pruning, trimming and maintenance work on hedges, shrubs, bushes, in road maintenance and in local authority work. It’s lightweight, has low noise output and low vibrations – making it perfect for long-periods of work throughout the day in noise-sensitive environments. 

Powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery, it has excellent balance which provides less fatigue during operation. An ergonomic control handle lets the user control the speed of the cutter blade during use, and thanks to the EC motor, the blades are capable of rapid acceleration up to a range leading 4000 rpm to help you get the best cutting performance. There are 3 rpm levels to choose from – 3,200, 3,600 and 4000 rpm. The tool can be used by both left- and right-handed users comfortably and efficiently too. 

The short-shaft hedge trimmer has a length of 214 cm (50 cm less than the HLA 140), which makes it perfect for cutting tall and wide hedges. The 60 cm/24” laser-cut double-sided, double-edged, diamond ground blades are friction-optimised, meaning they have high-cutting performance and help to extend the length of the battery during use. The cutter head can be adjusted by up to 145°, letting you tackle all angles of hedges. And the blades provide a clean cutting pattern thanks to the high acceleration of the EC motor. Should the cutters get jammed on a thicker branch, the anti-lock feature reverses the blade movement when you release the trigger, helping you remove the cutters. 

The head of the hedge trimmer can be folded flat for easy transport (reducing the total length to 158 cm) which makes it easy to transport the tool for those working in garden maintenance businesses. Plus, the tool is IPX4 rated, so it can be used in rain and wet conditions too. 

When used with the recommended AP 30 battery, the HLA 140 K has a working time of up to 125 minutes. What’s more, this battery provides perfect balance when used, making work even more comfortable!

Don’t forget to check your work area for wildlife before starting to use your tool. In particular, you should check for nesting birds before trimming hedges, as well as checking for other small animals such as hedgehogs before trimming long grass.

Product Info

Product Info

Thanks to intelligent electronics, STIHL power tools and batteries communicate with each other. If the device and battery are equipped with the POWER BOOST function, the battery always provides the maximum possible power for the respective application. In order to ensure optimum battery life, the device temporarily adjusts the power if it is used too intensively.

With other brands of battery tools, the performance usually decreases during work as the battery discharges. This is not the case with STIHL cordless power tools with CONSTANT POWER. Thanks to the intelligent electronics, your STIHL power tool works with consistently high power.

Quickly and conveniently adjust the speed of your power tool to the respective work situation. Doing so reduces energy consumption at low speeds, and in this way extends the battery runtime. The practical control handle with speed control allows you to make the relevant adjustment without having to change your grip or pause work.

Especially in the professional sector, low weight is of great importance for work. Thanks to the use of lightweight magnesium, you benefit from weight reduction without any compromise in terms of transmission robustness. This relieves the strain on you as you work and ensures that the power tool has a long service life.

With this power tool, you can insert the required battery from the STIHL AP-System directly into the engine housing. This increases your mobility and flexibility when working.

The air filter with fine metal mesh cleans the air and in this way ensures optimum engine cooling. As it is itself easy to clean, it also offers a long service life.

Quickly and conveniently adjust the speed of your power tool to the respective work situation. Doing so reduces energy consumption at low speeds, and in this way extends the battery runtime. The practical control handle with speed control allows you to make the relevant adjustment without having to change your grip or pause work.

The hardened edges of the blades are cut with a laser beam and ground with a diamond wheel. They remain sharp for a long time, are highly durable and meet the highest demands, enabling you to work comfortably and efficiently.

The double-sided cutting blade facilitates optimum hedge cutting: vertically, horizontally and in corners. Thanks to the double-sided cutting blades, you can effectively trim or prune your hedge – even those thicker branches.

The tip protector prevents damage to the blades. The tip protector also makes it easier to cut close to the ground or along walls.

To make your work easier and improve ergonomics, you can attach a harness to this STIHL power tool. You can use a special suspension eye or hanger strip to do so.

Thanks to its compact design, low weight and high efficiency, the EC engine enables you to work in an energy efficient manner. This engine also has a long service life.

The IPX protection classes define the moisture protection of electrical or electronic devices. The moisture protection test is defined in different stages. IPX4 certifies protection against splashwater from all sides. Battery-powered tools with this certification are therefore designed for daily use, even in rainy conditions.

Thanks to STIHL connected, you always have an overview of your power tool fleet and can automatically receive power tool data such as age, operating hours, and maintenance status. This allows you to determine the ideal fleet size and composition based on concrete information, as it makes clear how the power tool fleet is being used. Following initial commissioning, the Smart Connector collects the required data and transfers it to a mobile power tool or STIHL connected Box. All recorded power tool data is available for viewing and evaluation in the STIHL connected App and the STIHL connected Portal.
