Packed with the sort of premium features for which Stihl are renowned, the high-end HT101 is suitable for both professional & heavy-duty domestic lopping & pruning tasks. It's characterised by its telescopic shaft, which can be adjusted from 270
- 390cm, with the full extension giving the averagely-sized user a lengthy reach of around five-metres
- enough to access branches that would otherwise require a sky-lift or ladders to get at. The STIHL HT101 Long-Reach Pole Pruner is fitted with A Stihl 4-Mix engine; a high-specification power-pack that combines the best bits of two- & four-stroke technologies. The result is an engine that delivers more power & torque, with less nose & lower fuel-consumption when set against conventional two-stroke units. A decompression-system has been included, so starting requires almost no effort; while the provision of a manual fuel-pump ensures the engine will fire-up with only one or two pulls, even following long periods of inaction. Other quality features include comprehensive vibration-damping that works to spare the user's hands & arms from shock-damage; & a ultra safety-enhancing multi-function control handle, which ensures your hand is always in contact with the machine. This model comes with an ergonomic shoulder harness & protective UV-blocking goggles.
