The STIHL HS 87 R is a professional petrol hedge trimmer designed for heavy-duty hedge reduction and renovation work. Featuring a fuel-efficient STIHL 2-MIX engine, robust single-sided cutting blade and specialised pruning blade geometry, it delivers exceptional cutting force for tackling thick, overgrown hedges with ease.

The STIHL HS 87 R Professional Petrol Hedge Trimmer is a powerful hedge trimmer built specifically for demanding hedge reduction and pruning applications.

Designed for professional landscapers, grounds maintenance contractors and estate gardeners, the HS 87 R combines the efficiency of STIHL’s advanced 2-MIX engine technology with a specialist single-sided pruning blade, making it ideal for cutting through thick, woody growth and renovating overgrown hedges.

The R-version (Reduction) blade system is engineered with larger tooth spacing and a lower blade speed, providing increased cutting force and the ability to efficiently tackle dense hedge material. This makes it particularly effective for the first cut of the season, hedge restoration work and large-scale reduction tasks.

Powered by a fuel-efficient STIHL 2-MIX engine, the HS 87 R offers strong cutting performance while reducing fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and operating costs. The low-maintenance engine is fully compliant with stringent EU Stage V emissions regulations.

Its single-sided blade design provides excellent directional control, balance and efficiency when cutting large hedge surfaces, allowing clippings to be cleared more easily and helping users achieve consistent results across long hedge runs.

With a lightweight construction, durable gearbox and optimised balance, the HS 87 R remains comfortable to use throughout the working day, helping reduce operator fatigue while maintaining productivity.

Whether you’re reducing mature hedges, tackling dense shrubs or performing seasonal hedge renovation, the STIHL HS 87 R delivers the power, durability and reliability required by professional users.
