The HSA 140 R is a powerful and robust battery-powered hedge trimmer with a choice of 24″ or 30″ blades. Designed for professional landscapers and gardeners tackling the toughest pruning and reduction tasks. Comparable to the petrol-powered HS 82 R, this trimmer is part of STIHL’s AP System and is powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery. It delivers long runtimes, consistent power, low vibrations, and quiet operation—ideal for use in noise-sensitive areas.
The HSA 140 R is specifically designed for handling rougher, large-volume hedges with thick branches, featuring a low blade speed and wider tooth spacing for efficient cutting and clearing.
Optimized for professional use, the HSA 140 R offers ergonomic design, a built-in battery slot, and a rotatable handle for comfortable operation from any angle. With its anti-jamming function, advanced gearbox system, and weather-resistant IPX4 rating, this hedge trimmer ensures reliable performance in all conditions, making it an essential tool for demanding outdoor work.
Key Features:
- Efficient cutting for rough hedges: Double-sided cutting blade with 38 mm wide tooth spacing and adjustable stroke rates (2,800–3,200 rpm) for tackling thick twigs and large branches.
- Consistent performance: Maintains high cutting power throughout the battery charge, thanks to STIHL’s intelligent electronics.
- Ergonomic design: Built-in battery slot and balanced design when used with the AP 200 S battery for comfortable extended use.

- Weather-resistant: IPX4 rating allows operation in all weather conditions.
- Extended runtime: Provides 100–150 minutes of working time with the AP 200 S battery, with options to use AP 300 S or AP 500 S batteries for longer runtimes (may affect balance).
- Advanced gearbox system: Delivers high cutting power and quick acceleration for efficient pruning and clearing work.
- Specialised for tough tasks: Designed for large-volume cutting and clearing, ideal for annual hedge pruning and rougher reduction work.
