Description
The Stihl GTA 40 is a powerful cordless pruner made for professionals. It runs on two AS 2 lithium-ion batteries and is part of the Stihl AS System. You can use it on the ground or at height*.
This tool is ideal for cutting small branches, shaping shrubs, and trimming trees. It also works well for landscaping, crown reduction, and light construction tasks.
Powerful cutting with control
The ¼” PM3 saw chain and strong EC motor give you clean, fast cuts. You can adjust the chain speed while working, so you stay in full control at all times.
Easy to handle and maintain
Thanks to the rubber grip, the GTA 40 feels comfortable and secure in your hands. It weighs just 1.4 kg (without batteries), making it easy to carry and use for long periods.
The tool is simple to maintain with side-mounted chain tensioning, automatic chain oiling, and a tool-free oil tank that lasts through several battery cycles.
Designed for safety and convenience
The claw-shaped deflector helps keep your hands protected by separating the grip area from the chain. The double-sided rocker switch makes it suitable for both right- and left-handed users.
You can hang the GTA 40 from your belt using the built-in attachment ring, or pair it with the optional Stihl holster for quick access during work.
Battery use and charge display
The GTA 40 uses two batteries at once and cannot operate with only one. A clear charge-level indicator on the top of the tool keeps you informed while you work.
