About this product

The STIHL GTA 40 is a handheld cordless pruning saw, not a full-size chainsaw, designed for light garden work such as trimming small branches, shaping shrubs, and tackling detail cuts that are awkward for a larger saw. Its small 6" bar and pocket-sized body make it easy to carry and use one-handed around the yard.

Small saw, real cutting power

A 520W brushless motor gives the GTA 40 noticeably more power than STIHL's earlier GTA 26 pruner, letting it work through branches up to a few inches thick more confidently for its size.

Runs on two batteries for extended use

The saw uses two STIHL AS-series batteries at once, delivering roughly 190 cuts per charge and helping maintain consistent power output as a session goes on.

Convenient for storage and transport

A hard plastic carrying case that holds up to six batteries keeps the saw, spare batteries, and accessories organized and ready to grab for quick jobs around the property.

Frequently asked questions

Is the GTA 40 a replacement for a full-size chainsaw?

No. It's a compact pruning/pocket saw designed for light branch and detail work, not for felling trees or heavy-duty cutting; for larger jobs, a full-size chainsaw like the MSA or MS series is the right tool.

Does the kit include batteries and a charger?

Yes. This kit configuration includes two AS-series batteries and the AL 2 charger, so it's ready to use out of the box.

What size branches can it handle?

It's best suited to smaller branches, generally in the 1-3 inch range, with the ability to push through slightly thicker material occasionally rather than as routine use.

What is in the box

The kit includes the GTA 40 pruning saw, 6" guide bar and chain, two STIHL AS-series batteries, the AL 2 charger, and a hard plastic carrying case sized for up to six batteries.
