Loppers/long handled pruner

[dogman]

I'm looking for a manual pole pruner/lopper, i've seen the wolfe system, which i think goes up to 4metres, are there any others out there ?.

I have one and they are very good but for branches at the upper end of their capacity I find a fishing butt plate handy to protect my aging stomach muscles as it does dig in a bit.

 

The wolf one is also excellent, the one with the adjustable head angle is best and will also take a saw blade

Pole prunners for twigs,anything thicker i'll use the pole saw with jap blade.

Thanks for the advice. I have a couple already, one which is very old & operates via metal rod not rope, & a modern system by gardena, but i wanted the longer reach, i've seen the wolfe one for £65.

Yesterday i saw a team working in Grantham & they were using a huge one, that was grey in colour, i was driving so was unable to stop & ask what make it was.

I have used the same wolfe garten pole & pruning head around 8 years, they have been run over by a 20 ton lorry at 40 mph (long story) & still work pretty well. Very good investment, they have earn't their money hundreds of times over.

hi mate very expensive but we use the silky long reach loppers and had them 7 years and are better than the rest but expensive!

Thanks again for the feed back. Looks like the wolfe could be the way to go.
