When working with pole pruners and long-reach hedge trimmers, it is common to place the machine on the ground between tasks. The protective foot helps prevent direct contact between the tool, battery and the ground surface, reducing exposure to dirt, moisture, scratches and general wear. This added protection helps keep your equipment in excellent condition and supports long-term durability.

In addition to protecting the machine, the accessory also serves as an additional support handle, providing greater control when handling the tool and acting as a short-term shaft extension. This can make positioning and manoeuvring long-reach equipment easier, particularly during transport, storage or when preparing the machine for use.

Manufactured to STIHL’s high standards of quality and durability, the protective foot integrates seamlessly with compatible ALLPRO/AP System tools and provides a secure, reliable fit for everyday professional use.

The accessory is supplied as standard with the STIHL HTA 135 Cordless Pole Pruner, demonstrating its value for protecting high-performance professional equipment in demanding working environments.

Whether pruning at height or carrying out regular maintenance tasks, the STIHL Protective Foot helps improve handling while protecting both the machine and battery from unnecessary wear.
