Product Summary

Ambitious homeowners and tree care professionals now have another quiet, zero exhaust emission, low-vibration option for trimming out-of-reach branches. The HTA 86 lithium-ion battery pole pruner offers lightweight, balanced cutting thanks to its brushless, commercial-grade, high-torque electric motor. Part of the STIHL AP System, the HTA 86 offers long run times—up to 42 minutes with the AP 200 battery—without gradual drop in performance. The HTA 86 features the same lightweight toolless telescoping shaft found on its gas-powered counterpart and extends to 12.8ft. for those tall tree-trimming tasks, giving you the ability to reach up to 16ft. high. Best of all, there are no gasoline costs and no restrictive power cords, and it’s virtually maintenance-free.

Questions & Answers

Questions

  1. How do I install the chain that came off. 

    1 answer

    1. To replace the chain on this purner, please do the following:

      First, loosen the sprocket nuts with the wrench and remove the cover. Put the new chain on the guide bar with the cutting teeth facing forward. Then place the chain around the sprocket and fit the guide bar onto the mounting studs. Reinstall the cover, making sure the tension pin fits into the guide bar. Finger-tighten the nuts. Tighten the chain until it is snug but still moves easily by hand. Hold the tip of the guide bar up and tighten the sprocket nuts fully.
