Trim & maintain your trees & shrubs with the power of petrol, but with none of the smoke, noise or fuss. Cable free cutting with exceptional power & battery life, rugged build quality & industry leading cordless technology make this a must have garden tool for every homeowner. Greenworks’ lithium-Ion battery technology is leading the industry to a future of clean, green power, & this pole pruner is a fine example of their products. With a battery (available separately) that provides clean, emission free power; charging faster & running for longer (up to 25 mins continuous cutting on a single charge or around 150 cuts of 10cm diamter pine); with a battery life three times longer than Nickel-Cadmium models & full power for the duration of the charge, why spend time & money at the petrol station? The noise level is surprisingly low, with significantly reduced vibrations & the pruner is easy to handle & produces a very smooth, easy cut on medium sized branches. An amazing weight to power ratio (the pruner only weighs 5.8kg) this long reach tree & shrub pruner has a 20cm bar & chain, with. 50 low profile chain & 3/8” pitch, plus an in-line motor so you can see what you are cutting. Chain tensioning is tool-less, for convenience & speed & there is an auto-oiler with a clear gauge so you can see levels easily. Comfort & convenience are assured with an adjustable three-piece shaft to accommodate the operator’s height, offering between 2.4 – 4.5 metre reach, plus cushioned over-mould handle grips & a cushioned forearm rest. A rear-handle lock off switch maintains safety by preventing accidental start-ups & the build quality is very high end. The 40v GMAX battery that powers this garden tool is entirely compatible with the other garden tools in the 40v GMAX range, so you can power your lawn mower, hedge trimmer, blower, tiller/cultivator, chainsaw or grass trimmer with the same battery, building a complete garden care system with one, reliable, advanced power source. This pruner comes with a four-year warranty.
