Description

The HT 500e is a powerful battery hedge trimmer that enables you to cut comfortably – free from messy cables and petrol fumes – for around 50 minutes on one charge. Its 58cm double-action laser-cut blades slash through hedges and bushes with ease. And to maintain a natural arm and wrist position, you can set the 180° rotating handle to three different positions. The intuitive keypad makes operation easy, while handle and rear trigger safety switches protect you while you work. Built-in blade tip protection prevents damage to walls and paths. Your hedge trimmer also comes with a handy hanging hole. So when your garden's looking shipshape, it's easy to store your electric hedge trimmer away.

Faqs

Which type of vegetation can you work on with this battery hedge trimmer?
This hedge trimmer is an ideal tool for tackling medium-sized domestic bushes, including with those dense vegetation.
What should I do when it is not being used?
During the times when it is not being used, we recommend you remove the battery from the machine, clean the teeth of the cutting element and place the battery hedge trimmer in a safe place, ensuring you protect the blade when in the storage area.
Do the cutting blades need maintenance or sharpening?
Cutting hedges leads to detritus and dirt building up between the blades, an issue which without the necessary maintenance can lead to a loss of cutting performance.
After each period of use, you should therefore clean and oil the hedge cutting blades, ensuring you work with the hedge trimmer in full safety in a horizontal position, laid steadily on the ground. The blades can be cleaned with a dry cloth, using a brush if needed to remove more stubborn dirt. The blades can be oiled by applying a thin layer of specific oil (Stiga recommends using non-polluting products) along the upper edge of the blade.
Please see the user manual for more information on this point.
The blades seem to be working as if they are not clean or fluid. What might have happened and what should I do?
Where the blades tend to catch and you notice a reduction of cutting performance, possibly along with more blade noise, you must check the cutting element.
If the problem persists even after cleaning and oiling the blades, the solution is to sharpen them.
For reasons of safety, this is best performed by an authorised Stiga vendor. Once sharpened, the cutting system will return to working precisely and fluidly.
Lastly, please note that an excessively worn or damaged blade must not be sharpened but always replaced. Again in this case, the Stiga vendor network is always available.
Are the batteries included?
No, the battery and the charger are sold separately.
The suggested battery is a 48V ePower battery (2 Ah).
