18/36V HTAD 1845 Long Reach Hedge Trimmer Kit (Inc Battery & Charger) by AL-KO

AL-KO Comfort HTA 1845: 45cm 18V/36V Cordless Telescopic Pole Hedge Trimmer Kit (2.0Ah Battery & Charger)

The AL-KO Comfort HTA 1845 completely removes the physical strain and traditional safety hazards of tall hedge maintenance, packing exceptional cutting precision into a highly adjustable, long-reach battery framework. Purpose-built for homeowners managing substantial boundary hedges, established conifers, and high garden privacy screens, this cordless pole trimmer entirely does away with toxic exhaust fumes, cold-start frustration, or dragging dangerous extension leads across damp lawns. Exceptionally lightweight and perfectly counterbalanced, it shifts the mechanical leverage away from your lower back, allowing you to achieve perfectly flat, horizontal hedge tops with professional accuracy.

Extendable Telescopic Shaft & Multi-Angle Articulating Cutting Head

  • Tool-Less Extendable Telescopic Reach (210cm – 260cm): Customize your working length instantly to match the layout of your garden. The rigid aluminum shaft extends smoothly from 2.1 to 2.6 meters via a user-friendly locking collar, providing a safe, ground-stabilized vertical working height of up to 3.5 meters without ever needing a ladder.
  • 8-Position Pivot Adjustment Head: Navigate tricky overhead angles and tight vertical faces with ease. The cutting head features an articulating joint that clicks securely across 8 distinct cutting angles, letting you flip the blades perfectly flat for horizontal top-shaping or square it off for low-fatigue side trimming.
  • Space-Saving Split-Shaft Coupling: Reclaim vital storage space in your garden shed or garage. The telescopic pole features a robust, central split-shaft quick-release system, allowing you to break the trimmer down into two compact sections for incredibly easy transport in a car boot or neat storage on a shelf.

Laser-Cut Precision Blades & Balanced Handling Comfort

  • 45cm Counter-Rotating Safety Blades: Achieve a crisp, healthy finish on every single pass. The double-sided 45cm cutting teeth utilize a continuous counter-rotating slicing action, minimizing structural branch vibration to deliver clean, scissor-like clips without leaf browning or twig tearing.
  • 15mm Branch Cutting Capacity: Glide smoothly through dense seasonal growth. The optimized tooth geometry features a 15mm blade gap, providing the necessary mechanical bite to cleanly ingest and slice through leafy stems, box hedges, and woody boundary twigs without jamming or binding.
  • Ultra-Lightweight 3.1kg Ergonomic Frame: Maximize your cutting stamina. Weighing just 3.1kg as a bare tool, the motor housing and handle grips are balanced coaxially down the shaft, pulling the physical center of gravity close to the operator's body to prevent arm fatigue during overhead trimming tasks.

The AL-KO 18V / 36V Dual-Voltage Battery Advantage

The HTA 1845 arrives complete as a full starter kit, packed with a high-density 18V 2.0Ah lithium-ion battery and a matching 1A charging dock. Operating on AL-KO’s intelligent dual-voltage cell system, this interchangeable battery delivers fade-free power with zero memory effect or self-discharge, and is fully compatible across AL-KO's entire multi-tool garden machinery lineup. Built for quiet, neighbor-friendly residential use, it provides a highly efficient, emission-free alternative to small petrol motors and is backed by a comprehensive 2-year manufacturer warranty.
