I’ve now bought the pole extender for the HLA56, it was $60 for an extra 40ish cm.
The HRU196 had dull blades, so took em off and angle grinded them, one was bent from hitting something, so I banged it back into shape.
I really like working on and cleaning my machines, it’s quite relaxing.

Nice choice regarding the HLA56, I love mine!



Is this the extension you mentioned. Would be interested to hear how you find it.



In terms of hedge trimmer sharpening, I normally have the Stihl dealer do it for me. However, last time I did it myself with a flat file. Check out the video below.
