Full details
The Mac Allister 18V Cordless Pole Hedge Trimmer and Pruner Kit is designed for home gardeners who need to maintain tall hedges and overgrown branches safely from the ground. By combining a hedge trimmer and a chainsaw-style pruner in one tool, it eliminates the need for unstable ladders, though users should be aware that the extended reach can make the tool feel top-heavy during prolonged operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Ensure the 18V battery is fully charged before beginning your task. 2. Attach the desired head (trimmer or pruner) to the pole connector until it clicks securely into place. 3. Extend the telescopic pole to the desired length and tighten the locking collar firmly. 4. After each use, remove the battery and wipe down the blades to remove sap or debris. 5. If using the pruner, ensure the chain oil reservoir is topped up to keep the chain properly lubricated. Store the tool in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.
