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 Master Control Lever™ 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.
Made in America – A majority of STIHL® products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
