Hi James, yes that is correct. You can run the HT 105 pole pruner with either 1/4 P or 3/8 P cutting attachment. You will need a 3/8 P sprocket in order to do this. Thanks, STIHL GB.
Hi, Will the orange cover on the head fit on an HT133, given the head on the HT133 is a disaster for clogging up. I see this now has an exit hole designed to eject material rather than fill the head. I certianly would not buy a new saw for this alone but missed a trick if I can't buy a new cover and use on the old machine if you kept the head dimensions this same? In fact you probably could have done an updated cover for the HT133 to help current owners.
Hi Ian, thanks for your comment and feedback. I'm afraid the new cover is not compatible with the HT 133 due to the position of the sprocket and guide bar being to the left of the drive shaft, not the right. Thank you for the suggestion of a retrofittable sprocket cover for the HT 133 though. I have passed this on to the product team. Thanks, STIHL GB
Hi! Great review. I need pole saw for a specific use. I need to cute close to water. Is it safe to saw a bruch that is submerged under water or floating on water?
Hi, we don't recommend submerging our tools in water as the gearhead is not sealed to withstand being submerged or exposed to water. It’s also difficult to control the HT 135 when used at ground level due to the length of the product. If you would like to discuss your particular use further, please contact enquiries@stihl.co.uk with more information and they will be able to provide advice. Thanks, STIHL GB
Hi Daniel, thanks for your comment, but I'm afraid this is the channel for STIHL Great Britain and we don't ship any products to the USA, so you'll need to speak to STIHL there. You can contact them using this form here: support.stihl.com/en-US/write-email/ Thanks, STIHL GB

Do not buy either you cannot get parts. Should have bought an Echo. Had a branch fall on one and bend the tube slightly. 400+ dollars in parts they are saying they can't get anything but the whole tube as of right now.
Hi Robert, thanks for your comment, and sorry to hear about the issue you have been having. This is the channel for STIHL Great Britain though and it looks like you might be based outside Great Britain? If so, then it might be worth getting in touch with the STIHL Customer Services team in your country (if you haven't already) to see if they can help you speed up the process? You can find contact details for all the STIHL subsidiaries around the world here: www.stihl.com/default.aspx Thanks, STIHL GB
Was wondering if I heard correctly. So if I wanted to convert the bar and chain from 1/4" to 3/8" pitch on the HT105, I can do that?

Are the machines made in Germany? Looks fantastic are these replacing the ht 131?
Hi, thanks for the comment. These tools are made in the US, and yes, these are replacing the HT 131 / HT 133. Thanks, STIHL GB
