The STIHL HS 82 R-30 is a professional-grade hedge trimmer engineered for landscape professionals who demand superior performance and precise control. Featuring an extended 30-inch double-sided blade, this model offers greater reach and cutting capacity compared to the 24-inch variant, allowing professionals to cover more area with each pass while maintaining excellent maneuverability.

The ‘R’ designation indicates this trimmer is specifically designed for rejuvenation cuts and heavy pruning tasks. The specially configured blade features an increased tooth spacing that excels at cutting through thicker, woody material – ideal for maintaining overgrown hedges and shrubs that require significant shaping or reduction.

This hedge trimmer combines professional-grade power with remarkable efficiency. The high-torque engine delivers consistent cutting performance while using 20% less fuel than previous models, resulting in reduced operating costs and longer run times between refueling. This improved efficiency makes the HS 82 R-30 an excellent choice for extensive trimming projects.

Operator comfort is prioritized through several thoughtful design features. The innovative rear swivel handle adjusts to multiple positions, providing natural wrist alignment during both vertical and horizontal cutting tasks. The comprehensive anti-vibration system significantly reduces fatigue during extended use, while the ergonomic control layout enables intuitive, single-handed operation of all essential functions.

Additional professional features include a protective tip guard that facilitates ground-level cutting while protecting the blade from damage, high-tech polymer housing that reduces weight while maintaining durability, and a simplified starting procedure that ensures reliable performance in various working conditions.
