The Stihl GTA 26 is classed as a garden pruner for trees and shrubs, but it is closely related to the company’s chainsaw range as it uses using a saw chain for cutting, with a 10cm-long guide bar and a 1/4in chain gauge. The GTA26 is however not a chainsaw and is safe and easy-to-hold tool for gardeners.
