STIHL HT 135 Petrol Pole Pruner | 1/4″ PM3 Cutting Attachment 30 cm
STIHL petrol pole pruner with 4-MIX engine, 30 cm cutting attachment and professional telescopic shaft from 270 to 390 cm for tree care and fruit growing.
Product description
The STIHL HT 135 petrol pole pruner is designed for professional users in arboriculture, fruit growing and municipal grounds maintenance who need a particularly powerful pole pruner with long reach. With a 30 cm bar, 36.3 cm³ displacement and an adjustable professional telescopic shaft from 270 cm to 390 cm, it is suitable for removing branches, deadwood and storm damage as well as pruning fruit trees.
Common problems
On long working days with no power socket nearby, battery tools show these limits:
- Limited battery life means extra spare batteries are needed on long working days.
- High continuous load on many consecutive branches requires constant pulling power.
- Clogging with sawdust can disrupt the workflow during intensive sawing.
Solution
The STIHL HT 135 tackles this with the STIHL 4-MIX engine, which works powerfully with strong pulling power regardless of battery life. The side chip ejection also reduces the tendency to clog during intensive sawing throughout the working day.
