The GTA 26 is Stihl’s first battery-powered garden pruner, and is the ideal tool for small pruning tasks, cutting up garden waste and even small DIY jobs. Often referred to as a ‘mini chainsaw’ or ‘power pruner’.

Designed to be comfortable and simple to use, the GTA 26 has comfortable, rubberised handles so it is easy to control. It also features a moving protective hood, a charge level indicator and tool-free chain replacement.

Available as ‘Unit Only’ or in ‘Kit’ form. The GTA 26 Kit comes with an AS 2 battery, an AL 1 charger, a bottle of Multioil Bio for lubricating the chain and a carry case, which also has eyelets on the back so it can be mounted on the wall, for neat storage.

  • Battery run time: up to 25 minutes

A holster is available as a separate purchase to make your work easier, or the  GTA 26 extension shaft means you can quickly convert the GTA 26 into a pole pruner.

The AS 2 battery works exclusively with the products in the AS System and is not compatible with the HSA 25.

  1. Alison (verified owner) –

    Absolutely brilliant piece of kit! So easy to use and is a little power house. One happy customer. Fast delivery also from Radmore & Tucker ?

  2. Jo (verified owner) –

    All I can say is
    Wow what a little beauty!!! Cuts through branches like a dream !!! The charge is great and having a second free battery with the kit was a really bargain. I’m glad I got extra oil because I think I’ll use it up pretty quickly. You do also need the resin spray that breaks resin down to protect the chain. I also bought an extra chain because of other reviews but I haven’t used it yet.
    Radmoretucker were excellent on the phone and nothing was too much trouble. 10 out of 10 for knowledge and commitment to giving great service.
    I’ve just cut some large branches off a laurel hedge and the pruner handled it no problem. Don’t hesitate even for a minute, it’s a fantastic little tool, especially for us ladies who don’t want a heavy chainsaw but need something more than a manual saw .

    Excellent customer service, responded to a message I left on answer phone before the end of working day. Prompt delivery (next day) well packaged. Been considering buying this Stihl ‘mini chainsaw’ for some time, when I saw the Radmore & Tucker price with extra battery it was an opportunity not to miss. Works very well on reasonable sizes branches, I have managed to top up the wood pile/kindling in the last week. Very pleased with my purchase.

  4. Mrs Alexis Scales (verified owner) –

    Only had this a week but has already been useful. Wonderful machine for smaller twigs and branches. Cuts through quite big wood too of about 3” . Spare battery which was given as a special offer very welcome as battery is small and as such only lasts about 15 minutes when charged to 2 or 3 bars as recommended in the instruction booklet. Easy to use and compact. Delivered by DPD within 2 days of ordering, although DPD does not have many good reviews and they did say they would deliver on one particular day they cancelled, however, they did deliver the following day. The tracking number also stopped being accepted on DPD website after one day however, it was delivered next day for all the little problems. This was a problem with DPD not Radmore Tucker whose company I give the five stars to.

  7. Jayne (verified owner) –

    Great little tool…easy to use and makes light work of pruning branches….quick delivery and the special offer for an extra battery is a bonus.

  8. Graham Sheard (verified owner) –

    The cordless one handed chainsaw GTA 26 is excellent. I should have bought one ages ago. It is very manoeuvrable, lightweight and just cuts through those branches with ease. At least 2 batteries are needed as it goes through them but not too quickly although they do take a little while to recharge.
    The open ended case it came in. Well, it is of no real use, fiddly, cumbersome and things fall out. A carry box or even a small holdall bag would have been more appropriate. This open ended case is just an unusable fancy looks good at the time, impression but not practical at all. The GTA 26 itself. Spot on. Already started clearing my garden and ordered a 3rd battery and the extension pole for those high branches.
    Small, compact, lightweight, easy to use and does the job. Cheaper Chinese versions? Why would you?

  9. Steve Cook (verified owner) –

    Great service arrived really quickly birthday present for wife she’s very happy with it

  10. Glenn Follett (verified owner) –

    Great product and great service. Called a pruner but basically a mini chain saw. Fantastic capability for such a small device. You definitely needs a spare battery, case is silly – good luck getting it all back in again!

  13. Lesley Smith (verified owner) –

    Fabulous bit of kit, makes life so much easier in my garden rather than getting the pruning saw out. Just the right size and weight, great services from Radmore and Tucker, good price and quick delivery. Made light work of coppicing my hazel tree, so pleased.

  14. Tim Renshaw (verified owner) –

    Brilliant little tool that will get through bigger branches than you’d imagine. Very well made and nicely weighted and balanced in use. Battery life so far seems good, the free spare battery was a useful bonus. Excellent service from Radmore & Tucker, delivered quickly, would definitely recommend them.

  15. Martin (verified owner) –

    Stilh gta26, works and cuts well,relatively light and sits in the hand easily, excellent for pruning anything up to 4ins in diameter, much better with a 2nd battery which you really need,very pleased with it .Only down side is the pathetic carry case that comes with it….what were stilh thinking?

  16. Rachel Bradford (verified owner) –

    Purchased a Stihl GTA26, online and was contacted immediately, asking when a convenient time for delivery would be. It was delivered within 4 hours. A superb service and would highly recommend. A special thank you to John. Will definitely be using this company again. Kind Regards. Rachel

  17. Guy (verified owner) –

    This is such a convenient tool, I keep finding more uses for it. Pleased I bought an extra battery for it at the same time. The price was certainly competitive and updates were provided about the delivery.

  18. Margaret Hart (verified owner) –

  19. Margaret Hart (verified owner) –

    Excellent piece of equipment,so easy to use and a very good price. Service from Radmore Tucker could not be bettered ordered one day ,delivered the next,would certainly shop with them again.

  20. John Nicholls (verified owner) –

    TL;DR buy it!

    Firstly, the case – it’s 4 sided and rather like a rigid tool roll, so anything loose falls out and it’s a major faff to attempt to get the chainsaw and bits back inside. I can see it becoming landfill for most purchasers more often than not.

    Secondly, the chainsaw – first battery lasted long enough to prune a couple of well established apple trees that were well overdue attention. This was done using the extension pole. With the pole it’s difficult to see what the sharp end is up to, so I found I was using the battery for longer per cut than if I was close up with a better view and feel. Subsequent trees and shrubs were massacred with aplomb, without use of the pole.

    Having got all the wood on the ground, it was chipping time. Ordinarily preparing the branches to fit the chipper is a lot of work, but not this time… It was simple to just walk about and chop off branches as necessary, saving a huge amount of time. Any wooden waste in volume now meets the chainsaw as it’s so easy to just grab it from the house and get going.

    You definitely need 2+ batteries. There was a time where one was dead and the first was still charging, but lunch remedied that and the afternoon was playtime again. If there was cash to spare I’d probably go for a second charger and 3rd battery.

    Given the excellent performance of this tool, the hedge trimmer that accepts the same battery is a potential future purchase.

    All in all, my wife was very happy with her birthday present!

    Excellent machine and great service from radmore and tucker highly recommended

  22. Stephen Salter (verified owner) –

    Excellent piece of equipment, competitively priced by Radmore & Tucker with quick delivery, highly recommended.

  23. Phillip Baker (verified owner) –

    Great piece of kit but it would be better if it came in a proper bag/case…and I had to google how to put it back in the cover as it came in the elastic straps

  24. Thelma Strevens (verified owner) –

    I borrowed one of these mini chainsaws from a friend and was so
    Impressed that I had to buy my own! Great product and a real bonus that it came with an extra battery. Your delivery service was excellent too. Would highly recommend both the product and your company.

  25. Sue Elliott (verified owner) –

    I purchased the Stihl GTA26 cordless pruner kit online at very competitive price. As it was needed urgently I requested Saturday delivery and the parcel arrived before 9am the next morning. Excellent service, would highly recommend Radmore & Tucker and definitely use them again. The pruner is a superb tool, very easy to use and cuts through thicker branches than I had thought.

  26. Jim Smith (verified owner) –

    Very quick delivery and the mini chainsaw is as impressive as others say, chomping through everything I’ve thrown at it very easily. I particularly like how handy it is – it’s sitting in its cardboard box and ready in an instant – my regular petrol chainsaw takes a while to sort out, as does the corded one, so the result is, at home at least, I’m using this as my default choice. The only criticism is the Stihl ‘case’ = it’s not a case, more a tool roll which really doesn’t work whatsoever – whoever signed this off at the design stage needs to go right back to the drawing board.

    This is a true game changer in the Garden.
    I was initially skeptical of a small battery operated chain saw, with a tiny battery … but my GOSH!! Was I wrong.
    This is truly amazing. Stihl have really cracked it with this. It cuts amazingly, branches as thick as my Calf … and you genuinely get 25mins of running battery time from it … with less than an hour of recharge time.
    Worth every Penny.
    ALSO – Top marks to Amy in Customer Support. There was an issue with getting me my second battery for this unit, and she went way above and beyond to keep this grumpy old git happy in the run up to Christmas! Thank you AMY!!!
