Product information & specifications
STIHL HL-KM 145° Long-Reach Kombi Hedge Trimmer Attachment
The STIHL HL-KM 145° is a long-reach hedge trimmer KombiTool attachment for trimming high hedges and working close to the ground without a ladder. It features a double-sided cutting blade, available in 50cm or 60cm, with an adjustable head giving up to 145° of reach for tops, sides and awkward angles.
Available in 50cm and 60cm blade lengths, it's in stock at Gustharts as an authorised STIHL dealer, with free UK delivery on this order.
This is a KombiTool attachment — it requires a STIHL loop-handle KombiEngine (sold separately) to operate. It fits via quick-connect coupling with a clamping screw, installs tool-free, and is compatible with STIHL's loop-handle KombiEngines including the KM 56 RC-E, KM 94 RC-E and KM 131 R. At just 2.3kg, it's easy to manoeuvre even at full reach, and the cutter bar folds and locks into a compact, space-saving position for transport and storage between jobs.
Key Features & Benefits

- Lightweight at just 2.3kg for reduced fatigue at full extension
- Quick-connect, tool-free coupling to compatible KombiEngines
- Cutter bar folds to a compact, space-saving position
- Reaches tall hedges and ground-level areas without a ladder
Technical Details
Why Choose the STIHL HL-KM 145°?
STIHL is one of the world's leading power tool manufacturers, and the HL-KM 145° gives KombiEngine owners genuine long-reach hedge cutting capability without buying a dedicated machine — swap it onto your existing loop-handle KombiEngine alongside your other STIHL KombiTools, sharing one engine across multiple garden tasks rather than owning separate equipment for each.

FAQs
Does this include a KombiEngine?
No — this is the hedge trimmer attachment only. You'll need a compatible loop-handle STIHL KombiEngine, sold separately, to power it.
Which KombiEngines is it compatible with?
Loop-handle STIHL KombiEngines, including the KM 56 RC-E, KM 94 RC-E and KM 131 R.
How do I choose between the 50cm and 60cm blade?
The 50cm blade suits tighter spaces and lighter use; the 60cm blade covers more hedge per pass, useful for longer or wider hedge runs.
How is it attached to the engine?
Via a quick-connect coupling with a clamping screw — no tools required to fit or remove it.
Is it easy to store?
Yes, the cutter bar folds and locks into a compact, space-saving position for transport and storage.
