The STIHL SGA 30 Cordless Sprayer Set removes the repeated pumping required by a traditional pressure sprayer. Its AS 2 battery powers the pump and maintains consistent pressure while you work, making plant care, feeding and cleaning jobs quicker and less tiring.
It is particularly well suited to domestic gardens, allotments, vegetable plots, flower borders and smaller horticultural areas. The complete set includes the STIHL AS 2 battery and AL 1 charger, so it is ready to use once the battery has been charged and the tank filled with a suitable liquid.
Why choose the STIHL SGA 30 cordless sprayer?
No repetitive manual pumping
The battery-powered pump automatically generates the required pressure. Once the machine is switched on, you can concentrate on controlling the spray rather than repeatedly stopping to pump the container by hand.
Adjustable pressure and spray pattern
The pressure can be adjusted using the rotary control, helping you match the output to the job. The adjustable nozzle allows the spray pattern to be altered for more precise application around plants, borders and other garden areas.
Telescopic spray lance
The spray lance can be extended without tools. This gives you additional reach around beds and borders and can make it easier to treat awkward or less accessible areas without excessive bending or stretching.
Easy-to-monitor 5-litre tank
The transparent five-litre container has a visible level indicator, making it easier to monitor the remaining liquid and avoid overfilling. Its funnel-shaped opening also helps make filling more straightforward.
Carry it or place it on the ground
The SGA 30 can be carried using the shoulder strap while moving between different areas of the garden. It can also be placed securely on a level surface when working around a concentrated area such as a vegetable plot or flower bed.
Battery indicator and automatic sleep mode
A charge-level indicator helps you check the remaining battery capacity. The automatic sleep function detects when the sprayer is no longer being used or when the container is empty, helping to conserve battery power.

STIHL SGA 30 or a manual garden sprayer?
The SGA 30 is a sensible choice when you use a sprayer regularly and want to avoid repeated manual pumping. The battery pump maintains pressure for you, which can make longer plant-care and spraying jobs more comfortable.
For occasional use or customers looking for a lower-cost five-litre option, the STIHL SG 31 manual sprayer may be sufficient. You can also compare other sizes and designs in our complete garden sprayer range.
Do you need a larger cordless sprayer?
The SGA 30 is designed around a portable five-litre container and is best suited to regular work in small to medium-sized gardens, allotments and concentrated planting areas.
For substantially larger areas, longer working periods or customers who prefer a high-capacity backpack design, consider the STIHL SGA 60 cordless backpack sprayer.
Masseys recommendation
The STIHL SGA 30 makes most sense for gardeners and allotment holders who regularly use a five-litre sprayer but do not want the effort and interruption of manual pumping. It offers a useful balance between the compact size of the SG 31 and the considerably larger backpack design of the SGA 60.
