If you are a domestic user working with your STIHL HTA 50 battery pole pruner or STIHL HLA 56 battery long-reach hedge trimmer in grounds care, the protective foot for the STIHL HTA 50 and HLA 56 prevents the battery from coming into direct contact with the ground. This means that the protective foot keeps the battery of your STIHL power tool free of moisture and dirt when it comes into contact with the ground. At the same time, you can also use this handy accessory for the pole pruner and long-reach hedge trimmer as an additional handle to temporarily extend the range of the power tools.
