Product information & specifications
STIHL HS 82 T Petrol Hedge Trimmer
The STIHL HS 82 T Petrol Hedge Trimmer is a professional-grade trimmer designed for precision shaping, fine trimming and topiary work. Built with STIHL’s efficient 2-MIX engine, this model delivers high blade speed and clean, ultra-accurate cuts—perfect for formal hedges, tight growth and finishing work. The double-sided cutting blade and finely tuned trimming tooth geometry ensure exceptional control and a smooth cutting action on even the most delicate material.
Featuring a rotatable multi-function handle, the HS 82 T allows comfortable trimming in vertical, horizontal and angled positions. Whether cutting at head height or working close to the ground, the handle rotates 90° left or right for optimal ergonomics for both left- and right-handed users. The machine is lightweight, well balanced and built with STIHL’s anti-vibration system for reduced fatigue during long days of professional hedge maintenance.
A manual fuel pump and electronic ignition system ensure reliable starting with fewer pulls, especially after long periods of downtime. With a durable gearbox, razor-sharp blades and reduced overall weight, the HS 82 T delivers the cutting speed, precision and efficiency that professionals demand.
