HTA 30 Cordless Pole Pruner with AS 2 battery and ALS 31 charger: Lightweight pole pruner with a 20 cm / 8" bar length

Compact and lightweight, the HTA 30 pole pruner is the first of its kind in the AS System and is ideal for pruning back high branches, removing dead wood from trees and maintaining hedges. Powered by two interchangeable AS 2 lithium-ion batteries, which can be used in other tools in STIHL AS System, such as a leaf blower, grass trimmer, hedge trimmers, garden pruners, powered secateurs and more.  

The STIHL HTA 30 features a telescopic shaft that can be adjusted without tools, giving you a total length of up to 280 centimetres, making it perfect for tackling taller trees and shrubs. It’s incredibly lightweight, weighing 3.6 kg, and is easy to handle too thanks to the soft-grip handle. The rubberised grip allows you to hold the tool comfortably and securely.  

The HTA 30 is fitted with a STIHL 1/4" PM3 saw chain and a 20 cm STIHL Light 01 guide bar which is perfect for making clean and precise cuts on branches up to 17 centimetres in diameter. The compact cutting head provides excellent visibility of the guide bar and makes manoeuvring in tight spaces easy. Chain tensioning is quick and intuitive thanks to the spring-loaded mechanism under the sprocket cover – simply fold out the handle and rotate the cover to automatically adjust the chain tension.

For transport and storage, the telescopic shaft can be shortened from 280 centimetres to 190 centimetres, making the HTA 30 easy to carry and store away. The HTA 30 runs quietly and with low vibration, meaning you can work comfortably without hearing protection. A charge status indicator with LEDs lets you keep track of remaining battery power at a glance.

Cannot be used with Kombi attachments, HLA 40 hedge cutting head, RTS harness or shaft extension.

Working time with 2x AS 2 batteries is up to 28 minutes / 140 cuts.

 

Key Features

CONSTANT POWER, REGARDLESS OF BATTERY CHARGE STATUS. 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.

The chain tension can be readjusted quickly, easily and without tools, by means of a spring mechanism. By opening and closing the chain sprocket cover with the fold-out handle, the chain is automatically tensioned to the right level. Optimal chain tension not only improves cutting performance and safety, but also extends the service life of the chain through reduced wear.

The chain sprocket cover is easy to unscrew and remove. You do not need any additional tools for this and you can also remove the chain sprocket cover while wearing work gloves. This means you can remove chips or dirt quickly and effectively when needed, and that maintenance or a cutting attachment change are done in no time.

With the transparent oil tank, you can easily and quickly check the fill level of the chain oil. This means that you always know when you need to add chain oil for efficient work over long periods.

Thanks to its shape, the comfortable grip sleeve covering the handle area means your power tool is secure and firmly held in your hands.

The telescopic shaft allows you to work at height from the ground. This is ideal for trimming high-up branches or cutting tall hedges. The telescopic shaft can be adjusted without tools.

Thanks to the sturdy branch hook, you can remove loose and cut branches from great heights.

Thanks to the battery’s optimal centre of gravity, this power tool has a low tilting torque which supports fatigue-free working.

The protective foot supplied as standard prevents the housing from coming into direct contact with the ground. This protects the housing from dirt and moisture.

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.

The power tool has an integrated carrying ring. This allows you to store your power tool safely and compactly.

The softgrip handle sits comfortably and securely in the hand and absorbs some of the vibrations.
