Description
The STIHL GTA 40 battery-powered garden pruner is operated with 2 lithium-ion batteries from the STIHL AS System and is ideal for tree and shrub care, professional work in horticulture and landscaping, and processing wood and woody materials on construction sites. The STIHL GTA 40 can also be used by trained arborists for pruning within the crown of a standing tree. Whether used for tree care in parks and gardens, crown correction work, drywall construction, interior fittings or roofing jobs, the GTA 40 impresses with its compact design, low weight and excellent balance for forward, backward and plunge cutting, as well as high cutting performance and long battery life.
With the particularly powerful EC engine and STIHL 1/4″ PM3 saw chain, you are equipped for clean cutting and fast progress. Speed-dependent automatic chain lubrication is another advantage of the STIHL GTA 40. To facilitate precise handling, the battery-powered garden pruner has an ergonomically shaped operating handle with hand guard and an upper grip point for the second hand. This is shaped in such a way as to prevent slipping as much as possible. The claw-shaped deflector mechanism attached to the front also visually and haptically separates the upper grip area from the cutting attachment. Further useful features of the GTA 40 include the mechanical operating system with rocker on both sides, variable chain speed, sprocket cover with side-mounted chain tensioning and LED charge-level indicator. Not to be overlooked: steel hook-in eyelets on both sides for attaching fall protection – for example during treetop maintenance.
Our overview of STIHL battery life and charging times shows how long you can work with your STIHL GTA 40 garden pruner and how long the installed battery takes to charge.
- Cuts with recommended 2x AS 2 battery: Up to 190 cuts
The battery-powered GTA 40 garden pruner has been designed for professional applications and daily work, even in adverse weather conditions. It is therefore certified as splashproof. The effectiveness of this is also verified through demanding internal tests. For the STIHL GTA 40, the splash protection that has already been proven by internal testing has also been certified in accordance with the IPX4 protection class.

Features:
- Constant Power
When using other brands of battery tools, the performance can sometimes decrease during work as the battery discharges. This isn’t the case with STIHL battery-powered tools. Thanks to the intelligent electronics, your tool will work with consistently high power across the entire battery charge, until there is no energy left in the battery. - Energy Recovery
The energy recovered during braking, when the throttle is released, is fed back into the battery and so extends its battery life. This does not affect the service life of the battery. - Side-Mounted Chain Tensioning
Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for protected, easy and quick chain tensioning and replacement. The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover. - Tool-Free Cap for Oil & Fuel Tanks
Thanks to the bayonet closure, you can open and close the tool-free fuel cap in just a few simple steps. - LED Charge Level Indicator
At the push of a button, the LED charge-level indicator will inform you at any time about your battery’s remaining capacity. This allows you to efficiently plan working hours and charge the battery in good time. - EC Engine
Thanks to its compact design, low weight and high efficiency, the EC engine enables you to work in an energy efficient manner. This engine also has a long service life. - Captive Nuts
The nuts are attached to the sprocket cover in a captive manner. This makes it impossible for the nuts to fall off and get lost when the cover is removed. - IPX4 Certified
The IPX protection classes define the moisture protection of electrical or electronic devices. The moisture protection test is defined in different stages. IPX4 certifies protection against splashwater from all sides. Battery-powered tools with this certification are therefore designed for daily use, even in rainy conditions.
