STIHL Support Bracket for HTA 135 and HLA 135

If you often set your tool down while pruning or trimming, this support bracket keeps the battery from touching wet, dirty ground. It helps protect the battery on your STIHL AP System tools so you can work confidently without worrying about moisture or dust getting into the battery area.

It’s a simple add-on that also gives you an extra temporary handhold to nudge a little more reach when positioning the tool. Ideal for pros and demanding users who want their gear to last and stay reliable.

Where it shines

• Tree care on uneven or damp terrain with an HTA pole pruner
• Hedge maintenance with an HLA long-reach hedge trimmer
• Mixed tasks around sites where the tool is often set down
• General use with AP System tools that share similar handling

• Battery protection: Keeps the pack clear of wet, gritty ground

In daily use

Clips on securely and stays out of the way while cutting. When you set the tool down, the bracket takes the contact, not the battery. The added grip point helps with small adjustments but isn’t a substitute for safe working positions.

After wet-weather work, wipe the bracket and battery housing clean before storage to keep seals and contacts in top condition.
