Trimming and shaping your hedges and shrubs is more of a pleasure than a chore with the powerful but lightweight and easy-handling Alpina AHT 55 petrol hedgetrimmer! The AHT 55 comes equipped with a pair of fast-working 55cm double-sided blades, which have been diamond-ground, laser-cut and tin-plated for exceptional cutting-performance and superior durability. A multi-point spring system works to reduce the vibration load to which the operator’s hands and arms are exposed; while a three-position rotating rear-handle ensures comfortable trimming, both horizontally and vertically. The super-efficient 24.5cc (0.65kW) engine on the Alpina AHT 55 combines an Easy Start system with an on/off switch to make getting started fast and hassle-free. Also featured is two-trigger safety switching and no-tools air-filter access. This model’s expansive 35mm tooth-distance makes it suitable for trimming woody, larger-diameter growth.
