Q: What should I wear when using this tool?
A: We recommend that you wear snug-fitting clothes, eye protection, gloves and sturdy boots or shoes, and tie back long hair.
Q: How long will the Battery last?
A: The recommended AP 100 P Battery will last up to 97 minutes, this does depend on what is being cut and how the tool is being used.
Q: How long does it take to charge?
A: To fully charge an AP 100 P Battery it takes 30 minutes, or to charge it up to 80%, it takes 20 minutes with the AL 301 charger.
Q: Are the Batteries Interchangeable?
A: Yes, all of the tools in the ALLPRO Cordless System use the same style of battery. For the HSA 140, we recommend the AP 100 P battery for the perfect balance between weight and power, but you can use any of the other batteries in this range.
Q: Does the performance of the Battery reduce as it depletes?
A: No there is no gradual drop in performance – the battery runs at full power until it is fully depleted.
Q: Will the blades need sharpening?
A: Keeping the blades sharp will give a neat cut on whatever you are trimming. If you notice that the blades are getting jammed easily or the machine is struggling, the blades may need sharpening. Our STIHL SHOP retailers can do this for you.
Q: Does this tool come with a warranty?
A: Yes, the HSA 140 R comes with a 5 year warranty if used in home or farming applications and a 3 year warranty if used professionally.
Q: How thick a branch can the HSA 140 R cut?
A: The HSA 140 R features wide tooth spacing and a low blade speed designed for powerful cutting performance, making it ideal for thicker hedge growth and tougher trimming applications.
Q: Is the HSA 140 R suitable for professional landscapers?
A: Yes. The HSA 140 R is a professional-grade hedge trimmer designed for demanding commercial, landscaping and property maintenance work, offering exceptional cutting performance and extended runtime.
Q: How does the HSA 140 R compare with a petrol hedge trimmer?
A: The HSA 140 R delivers professional cutting performance while producing less noise, less vibration and no direct exhaust emissions. It also requires less maintenance than a comparable petrol hedge trimmer.
Q: What hedges is the HSA 140 R designed for?
A: The HSA 140 R is designed for trimming larger hedges, shelter belts, established shrubs and dense hedge growth, making it ideal for farms, lifestyle properties and professional landscaping work.
Q: What maintenance does the HSA 140 R require?
A: Regular cleaning and occasional blade lubrication are recommended to maintain optimal cutting performance. The brushless EC motor is maintenance-free and eliminates the need for fuel mixing, spark plugs and engine servicing.
Q: Can I buy it with a battery and charger?
A: This model is supplied as a tool only, with the battery and charger sold separately. If you would prefer a complete package, we also have the HSA 140 hedge trimmer kit that includes a compatible battery and charger.
Q: What is a STIHL laminate cell battery?
A: STIHL laminate cell batteries are the latest generation of STIHL lithium-ion battery technology, designed to provide more power, longer runtime and reduced weight for professional users.
Q: How is a laminate cell battery different from a standard lithium-ion battery?
A: Both use lithium-ion technology, but STIHL laminate cell batteries pack more energy into a lighter battery. That means more power and longer runtime without unnecessary weight, making your tool easier to handle during longer jobs. Pair it with the STIHL AL 1802 MO charger for seriously fast charging: up to 80% in just 9 minutes and 100% in 20 minutes, so you can spend less time waiting and more time working.
Q: When should I choose the HSA 140 R instead of the HSA 140 T?
A: HSA 140 T: Best for precision trimming and a cleaner finish. HSA 140 R: Best for heavier pruning and thicker growth.
