Key Features & Benefits
Superior Articulation & Reach
- 145° Working Range: The blade head adjusts incrementally across a 145° arc, allowing you to find the perfect angle for side trimming, top leveling, or ground clearing.
- Long-Reach Design: Combined with the length of your KombiMotor, this attachment allows you to safely trim tall hedges while keeping your feet firmly on the ground.
- Precision Adjustment: Features a simple incremental-adjustment mechanism that makes it easy to change angles on the fly as the contour of the hedge changes.
Lightweight & Durable Engineering
- Redesigned Gearbox: The newly engineered gearbox is lighter than previous generations, improving the overall tool balance and making it easier to handle during long workdays.
- Professional Cutting Performance: 20-inch or 24-inch (model dependent) double-sided blades are designed to stay sharp and provide a signature STIHL cut quality through branches and thick woody growth.
- Modern Aesthetics: Features an updated color scheme and sleek design that matches the latest generation of STIHL power equipment.
Compatibility & Versatility
- Quick-Release Coupling: Slides effortlessly into any gas or battery-powered STIHL KombiMotor (KM series) and secures in seconds without tools.
- Dual Use: While designed for hedges, many users find the 145° angle ideal for use as a "scythe" to clear grass and weeds on steep slopes where mowers cannot reach.
