Pole hedge trimmer Husqvarna 520iHE3

The Husqvarna 520iHE3 is a battery pole hedge trimmer for cutting taller hedges where a standard trimmer is too short. The maker rates its power as comparable to a petrol hedge trimmer, with a working height of up to 3.5 m.

The adjustable cutting head lets you set the blades at the right angle, so you can trim the top and sides of a hedge from the ground, without a ladder. The brushless motor delivers steady high torque and cutting speed that holds up over longer sessions. SavE mode lowers the speed when full power isn't needed, extending battery runtime.

The pole hedge trimmer suits maintaining tall, deep hedges in residential areas, around buildings and anywhere noise and exhaust would be a nuisance. Battery power means quiet, exhaust-free operation, which matters in built-up areas.

Trimming a tall hedge with a short trimmer means stretching, bending or climbing a ladder — awkward and unsafe. The pole hedge trimmer gives reach and a stable cut from the ground, so you can keep a hedge in shape even up high — useful through the growing season from spring to autumn.
