This is got to be the most hard to get unit from STIHL these past 2 years!
This hand-held pruner is light, easy to use and battery powered. It features a 4 inch bar with 1/4″ micro chain.
The battery is said to last 24 minutes give or take depending on how hard you use it. We had a chance to demo it and it seemed to cut 2×4’s very well. It cuts through the 2×4 about as fast as a skill-saw.
A carrying holster is available as an accessory (in stock).
Same battery fits the Stihl HSA 26 Hedge Trimmer! ———–>
Below is STIHL’s description of the unit:
“The STIHL GTA 26 battery-powered garden pruner is not only a completely new tool in the STIHL product range, it is the first of its kind on the U.S. market. With its lightweight and compact design with rubber grips this tool provides ease of use and minimizes wrist torsion. An LED light display provides charge level and status of the tool. With battery, charger, multi-oil, and even a transport bag, the GTA 26 set comes with everything users need to take on a variety of landscaping tasks.”
If you are interested in this saw, you need to call for price and availability.
