Garden maintenance is easier when you have the right tool to hand, and the award-winning STIHL GTA 26 provides exactly that. Lightweight yet powerful, this battery pruner combines high-levels of precision with cordless convenience, making it the perfect partner for pruning shrubs, trimming small branches, and even cutting wood for kindling. With a clever design and dependable build, it’s no wonder the GTA 26 garden pruner has become one of STIHL’s most popular tools for green-fingered experts and novice gardeners alike.

Lightweight Yet Powerful

Despite weighing just 1.45kg with the battery inserted, the STIHL GTA 26 Cordless Pruner is expertly engineered to deliver excellent cutting power. Its 4-inch (10cm) guide bar works with a ¼ inch Picco Micro 3 saw chain to provide clean and accurate results. Capable of cutting through branches up to 1.6 inches (40mm) in diameter, this STIHL cordless pruner is an invaluable tool for a variety of garden jobs. With a maximum output of 0.18kW and rated voltage of 10.8, it combines high efficiency with quiet operation, producing only 78 dB(A) at the user’s ear.

Smart Safety Features

The STIHL GTA 26 cordless mini chainsaw has been designed with safety in mind. A flexible chain guard shields the operator while keeping the cutting area clearly visible. This hood can be folded back to a 90-degree angle, allowing the full bar length to be used when required. With this feature, users benefit from added protection without losing control or cutting capacity.

Comfortable Handling and Control

The GTA 26 cordless garden pruner feels secure and comfortable to hold thanks to its ergonomically shaped handle. A rubberised grip prevents the tool from slipping, while the low vibration levels—2.9 m/s² to the left and 2.8 m/s² to the right—make it easy to use for extended periods of time. This thoughtful design helps you achieve high-precision cuts with minimal strain on your hands and arms, for happier, more confident gardening.

Battery Performance and Monitoring

Running on a STIHL AS 2 battery, the STIHL GTA 26 chainsaw pruner provides ample runtime for small to medium-sized pruning tasks. Its LED charge-level indicator lets you check remaining power at the push of a button, helping you plan your work effectively. Recharging is straightforward, while an interchangeable AS 2 battery system lets you swap batteries between compatible STIHL AS System tools with ease.
