Product Information

Full details

This 1.5m long-reach tree pruner from Gardening Naturally is designed for gardeners who need to maintain trees and shrubs at height without using a ladder. Its key benefit is the extended reach, promoting safer pruning from ground level. A potential consideration is that while lightweight, prolonged use may still cause fatigue for some users. The pruner features SK5 steel blades for sharp, clean cuts, an integrated 12" tri-cut saw for thicker branches, and a convenient cut-and-hold function.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is it suitable for very thick branches?

Yes, the 12" tri-cut saw blade is specifically designed to handle thick branches with ease. Its sharp edge reduces the effort required for cutting.

How do I maintain the blade for longevity?

Keep the blade clean and dry after each use. Wipe with an oiled cloth occasionally to prevent rust and maintain sharpness. The SK5 steel is easy to sharpen when needed.

Can I use this pruner without the saw blade?

Yes, the saw blade is removable. You can use the main pruner blade for thinner branches and remove the saw when it's not needed or for easier storage.

What is the maximum branch thickness the main blade can handle?

While the saw is for thick branches, the main blade is typically designed for branches up to 1-1.5 inches in diameter, depending on wood hardness.

Is the handle adjustable?

The handle is ergonomic for comfort and control, and it features a rotating mechanism for better alignment and pressure distribution, but it is not adjustable in length.

What is the weight of the pruner?

The tree pruner weighs less than 1kg, making it very lightweight and easy to handle.

Does the cut and hold feature work on all branch sizes?

The cut and hold feature is most effective on branches that fit securely within the jaws. It helps secure the cut stem, reducing bending or lifting.

Troubleshooting

Blade not cutting cleanly

Ensure the blade is clean and free of sap or debris. Sharpen the SK5 blade if it has become dull. Check that the blade is properly aligned and tightened.

Saw blade is difficult to attach/remove

Ensure the locking mechanism is clear of debris. Lightly lubricate the attachment points if necessary. Refer to the product manual for specific instructions on blade changes.

Pruner feels heavy during extended use

Take regular breaks to rest your arms. Ensure you are maintaining good posture to distribute the weight. For very demanding tasks, consider a more specialized tool or breaking the task into smaller sessions.

Cut and hold feature is not grasping the branch

Verify that the branch is positioned correctly within the jaws of the cutting mechanism. Ensure the mechanism itself is clean and free from obstructions. Check for any damage to the holding component.
