FAQS
Q HOW LONG DOES THE BATTERY LAST?
A: The battery will last up to 40 minutes or enough time to trim up to 140m² of hedges. 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 AK 10 battery it takes 80 minutes, or to charge it up to 80%, it takes 55 minutes.
Q WHAT SIZE GARDEN WILL IT MAINTAIN?
A: The HSA 56 is great for medium to large gardens.
Q WHAT BATTERY DOES IT USE?
A: The tool is powered by an interchangeable 36V Lithium-Ion battery.
Q ARE THE BATTERIES INTERCHANGEABLE?
A: Yes, all of the tools in the COMPACT Cordless System use the same style of battery. There are three different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the HSA 56, we recommend the smaller capacity AK 10 battery as it is lighter and means the tool is perfectly balanced, but you can use the AK 20 and AK 30 battery in this tool.
Q HOW LONG IS THE BLADE ON THE HSA 56?
A: The blade is 45cm long.
Q WHAT SHOULD I WEAR WHEN USING THIS HEDGE TRIMMER?
A: We recommend that you wear snug-fitting clothes, goggles, gloves and sturdy boots or shoes, and tie back long hair.
Q WHAT SIZE BRANCHES CAN I CUT WITH THE HSA 56?
A: You can cut branches up to 16mm in diameter.
Q DOES THE HEDGE TRIMMER COME WITH A BLADE COVER?
A: Yes, your hedge trimmer comes with a scabbard to cover the blades during transport or storage. On new machines, the scabbard will be quite tight so you may need to use some force to remove it for the first few times. Just hold the scabbard about half way down and pull it away from you so your hands or body cannot come into contact with the blades.
TIPS
#1 USING THE HSA 56
You will get a straighter cut on your hedges, if you move the hedge trimmer in an upwards motion when trimming. The HSA 56 has a handy tip protector at the end of the blades - this means you can trim closer to the ground without damaging the blades.
#2 CLEANING YOUR HSA 56
When you have finished using the hedge trimmer, remove the battery. We suggest spraying a little resin solvent, like STIHL Superclean, onto the blades to remove sap or resin, protect them from corrosion and stop them getting stuck together.
#3 LOOKING AFTER YOUR BATTERY
Don't use a damp or wet battery in your HSA 56 and avoid using them in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold). To find out more about looking after your battery, read our blog post.
#4 STORING YOUR HSA 56
Store your HSA 56 in a clean and dry area and keep out of the reach of children at all times.
