Just like the secateurs, the pole pruner allows for reaching, pruning, and trimming small tree branches, even the most inaccessible ones. With its sharp blades mounted on a spring at the end of a pole, it is operated using a cord. The pole pruner has a major advantage: the ability to do without a ladder, thus avoiding accidents.
The pruning pole can cut branches of about 1 cm in diameter. Typically equipped with a handle, it offers total freedom of movement. Moreover, models of pole pruners from FARTOOLS or RIBIMEX, for instance, feature a blade with a pivoting head that allows reaching the most difficult areas. These models can reach up to about 5 m in height. There are also models with a removable pruning saw and telescopic handle. Whether electric or manual, the head of the pruning poles is generally made of steel, and their handle of aluminum, fiberglass, or vinyl. It is worth noting that the blade of some models is coated in a non-stick coating for a clean and precise cut. Furthermore, the pole pruner is simple to use. Pull on the cord and voilà!
