Stihl HS82R Hedge Trimmer

A powerful double-sided professional hedge trimmer, with multi-function rear handle that rotates through 90° left and right. This R version is for powerful clearing with 3000 strokes per minute cut, this lower blade speed makes the HS82R an ideal machine for contractors cutting large areas of overgrown or woody hedges.
The HS82R as well as the lower blade speed, also has a larger cutter spacing and blade height, allowing larger woody sections of hedge to sit deeper in the blade, improving its cut. The gear ratio has been designed to give greater cutting power, for large volumes of cutting and clearing.

Features:

Anti-Vibration System
Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms.  STIHL has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.

STIHL 2-MIX Engine
The STIHL 2-mix engine specially designed for the new generation of hedge trimmer combines low consumption and emissions with low weight and excellent acceleration.  There are also always sufficient power reserves for cutting thicker shrubs.

Cutting Variation (R)
The R variations of the STIHL HS82 and HS86 are specifically for large volume cutting.  They feature a cutting blade with wide tooth spacing and longer tooth height.  The gearing allows a high cutting power at a medium stroke rate.  The R variations provide the possibility of cutting thicker branches and completing clearing work faster.

Double-Sided Blades
The dual ground blade system provides a cleanout.  Excellent for cutting stronger, thicker branches.

Swiveling Multi-Function Handle
The handle rotates by 90° to the left and right, ensuring the best cutting position at all times.

Long-Life Air Filter System
Ensures longer cleaning intervals and better protection of the engine.

Tool Free Filler Cap
Patented special filler caps for fuel and oil. These filler caps can be opened and closed again quickly and easily, without tools.

Single Lever Operation
The choke, start gas, operating position and stop function are integrated onto one operating element. Stop button with a single lever operation After pressing the stop button, the shaft jumps back to position I. The hedge trimmer is ready to start again immediately, thus preventing an incorrect operation.
