Description:

Maintain hard-to-reach hedges with the STIHL® HL 56 K (0°) extended-reach hedge trimmer. Designed for homeowners and beginning landscapers, this gas-powered hedge trimmer has a 26-inch short shaft which makes it easy to handle. With its advanced, low exhaust emission, powerful two-stroke engine, the HL 56 K (0°) is fuel efficient for a lower cost of ownership over time. It features a lighter gearbox than previous models, shifting weight to the powerhead for better balance and maneuverability. The fixed-angle zero-degree blade allows users to trim hard-to-reach areas smoothly and precisely.

 Features:

• Simplified Starting Procedure – To get started, users simply pump the fuel primer, set the choke, and pull the starter cord. The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the "start" setting. The tool will be ready to start again when the user is ready to get back to work.
• Double-Sided Blades – The dual-ground blade system provides a clean cut and is ideal for cutting through stronger, thicker branches.
• Lightweight Portability – This product is lightweight for easy portability, great maneuverability, and extended use.
• Blade Scabbard – The blade cover helps protect the cutting blade during storage and transport.
• Tip Protector – The tip protector makes cutting near the ground or along walls easier while protecting the trimmer’s cutters from damage.
• Anti-Vibration System – STIHL® has a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL® anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
• Multi-Function Control Handle™ – Having easy access to all controls on one handle helps make 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.
• Throttle Trigger Lockout – This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
• 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.
• Made in America – A majority of STIHL® products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
