OPP1820 ONE+ 18V Cordless Pole Pruner, Yellow, 20 cm Bar (Body only)

I have just started using this Pruner having recently bought a few Ryobi ONE tools etc. In short it seems brilliant. The tool is well made and should last. - we have a high end 'requirement' living on an (what was) an old farm - now holiday lets - with lots of farm track, trees, hedges, grass, etc etc etc. in the North Wales outdoors where everything grows!Grumbles - well, Ryobi instructions are basically pictures only plus a few words - but I am familiar with Chainsaws , which is what this is - a mini chainsaw - and have already adjusted the Pruner chain (as you would need to after a first use). However many buyers, possible converts away from petrol/electric corded garden power tools may struggle with understanding their new purchase and crucially how to maintain as best possible. Maintenance is easy, like everything when you know how. eg make sure you ensure that the chain oil always topped up - Ryobi give you a small bottle which I used today alone. Wipe the chain afterwards with oil and carefully replace the plastic scabbard over the chain. It just needs some care whether taking off or putting back on afterwards.Ryobi do need to improve their instructions which mainly consist of health and safety. A few words would be good to explain/support the pictures - how you do it... but like many global selling manufacturers products, words are being dropped to save translations presumably.The Pruner was simple to assemble. (I had challenges with the Ryobi brush cutter though where you had to put on a nut Anticlockwise to tighten - seemed unnatural but then I realised that was what the picture was showing me ).The Pruner easily cuts branches that are 4-6 inches, steady as you go supporting the tool....... It does what it claims. Even without the extension you can get pretty high wood etc.My 4 amp battery will last ages when fully charged.This will get a lot of use, I think it will last and at around £90 is good value in my view.

Let's face it, wrangling a ladder and a chainsaw to trim those out-of-reach branches is a pain. Enter the Ryobi Cordless Pole Pruner, my new best friend for sky-high yard work.This little beast extends up to 4 meters, which means I can ditch the ladder (hallelujah!) and reach branches that would normally require some serious acrobatics. Plus, it's cordless, so no more detangling myself from extension cords like a jungle explorer.Power-wise, it packs a punch with a high-torque motor and a sharp 20cm Oregon chain. Most branches don't stand a chance, although I wouldn't recommend it for tree trunks (unless you're looking for some serious arm exercise).Now, here's the thing: battery life can be a bit of a gamble. Depending on the size of the job and the battery you're using, you might need a spare. Also, if you're tackling monster branches, this pruner might whimper a bit. But for most homeowners like me, it's just right.Overall, this Ryobi pruner is a lifesaver for keeping my trees in check without the ladder dance. It's easy to use, convenient, and gets the job done. Just keep in mind the battery situation and branch thickness, and you're golden.P.S. It's plastic, not metal, so don't go crazy Tarzan swinging from the trees with it.

Just brilliant, I already have a few of Ryobi tools battery and charger. Very easy to set up and I used it first time at full length. I was amazed at how quickly it went through a fairly hefty branch of a tree overhanging my driveway. Using at full length it is important to have a good surface to steady yourself on and wear protective head gear goggles also gloves. Keep your support hand as far as possible along the extension arm as the chain cutting end will surprise you just how quickly it can cut and all of a sudden you will have a weight to contend with. It’s an excellent little chain saw and whole thing is easy to put together for use. My battery lasted long enough to trim all the branches I needed removed. Well deserved 5 stars to the Ruobi team.

I bought this after buying other Ryobi products when I required having a tree pruned. Normally we have tradesmen do it, but this time after receiving quotes in excess of £300, I thought I would have a try myself.First off, as other reviews have stated, this product does not extend to 4 meters. But I knew this before purchasing it .Good PointsThe performance of it was amazing. I was able to prune my tree much quicker than using loppers. It was able to carve through all the branches I tried it on (up to 4'' thick) with ease.I used a Ryobi RB18L40 ONE+ 4.0 Ah Lithium Battery, 18 V& it lasted ages. I filled up an estate car's worth of branches before having to recharge it (It didn't run out, it was just running low)Bad PointsIt was heavier than expected when using the extension. There is a strap to help hold it, but for the very high branches, I had to use my arms. I am 6ft 2'' of average build and this was tiring after a while.The instructions were poor. At one point the chain came off, I had to resort to YouTube before I worked out how to re-seat it. This only happens once and it is easy thing to rectify (when you know how)Would I recommend it? It would depend on the buyer. and the height of the tree to prune. But I was very impressed with it and will definitely use it again. Both of my neighbours came out to look and were surprised how good it was (they were doubters of using a battery powered pruner beforehand,now they too are converts)

great product and fast delivery

I already have a Ryobi Expand-It pole saw, and liked it apart from the fact I can never get the two stroke engine to start, and once running to stay running. In frustration I decided to give this One+ pole saw a try, and I am SO glad I did.The Expand-It engine made a frightful din, and the vibrations would send my hand numb. By comparison the One+ saw is lighter, quiet in operation, and cuts through boughs just as well, and with the extension pole it is longer as well for those hard to reach branches.I only have the small 1.3Ah battery, but it is quite adequate to get a substantial amount of work done.I have only two small gripes. Firstly despite the manual being half an inch thick in 20 odd languages. It does not actually tell you anything useful, like how to tension the chain or take the scabbard off. Secondly getting the scabbard off is really hard. A little plastic stud has to be forced over the bar. There is a real danger of cutting your hand trying to force it off. I cut the stud shorter to make it easier.My Expand-It pole saw is now up for sale.

Best pole chain saw ever brought , works brilliantly ryobi have made this saw strong and light to use

I only received this saw today and have given it a quick try. I have several of the Ryobi One+ tools now - note that the saw comes "bare" without battery or charger. I have a few Ryobi Lithium Ion batteries and the beauty of the One+ system is that they fit all of the tools in the range different AH ratings giving different run times. I have found 4AH to be a good balance of price/run time.Back to the saw - it comes with an extension pole but I initially used it without. The saw comes with a small bottle of oil to fill the reservoir - you'll soon need more. The saw zipped through 4 to 5 inch branches on a tree which had got out of hand and in ten minutes I had transformed it :)) there's a lot of power there and the tool also comes with a clip on strap which is useful as it can feel a bit top heavy due to the chain saw mechanism on the end.All in all already very impressed and the tool will pay for itself in no time given what would need to be paid to bring someone in.

Works as advertised

Potatore elettrico senza fili marca Ryobi, da completare con le batterie da 18V (non incluse). Leggero e comodo da usare. Personalmente ho mandato in pensione il potatore a benzina! Consigliato a chi cerca qualcosa di pratico, conveniente soprattutto per chi ha già prodotti Ryobi in modo da poter spalmare il prezzo delle batterie su più prodotti

comme tous les outils ryobi , leur intérêt est dans leurs batteries interchangeables . ce qui fait que quand on a beaucoup d'outils cela devient très très pratique.cet élagueur et le plus pratique et efficace que j'ai dans la gamme ryobi.il remplace un élagueur avec FIL ryobi qui avait quelques défauts dont notamment la chaine qui sautait trop régulièrement.... le système a été amélioré sur celui-ci même si le problème arrive de temps en temps...sinon pour l'efficacité il n'a rien a dire... ça coupe comme dans du beurre à 3 mètres de haut, des branches mêmes bien épaisses, c'est assez bluffant... après il faudra changer la chaine de temps en temps pour garder une telle efficacité.l’élagueur est même assez léger, on peu le tenir en bout de bras sans trop se fatiguer.pour moi qui ai beaucoup d'arbres à élaguer , c'est un outil indispensable, et ravi depuis que je l'ai, je le recommande plus que vivementvive le sans fil !!

Folgende zwei Nachteile müssen benannt werden:durch Undichtigkeit Kettenoelabgang während der Laherung und hohes Gewicht.Die Sache mit dem besagten Kettenoelabgang ist dem Hersteller bekannt, dennoch ist man unfähig, das in den Griff zu bekommen.Dennoch 5 Sterne, weil die Säge super gut funktioniert und der 4,0 Ah-Akku sehr lange durchhält.Die hohe Qualität des teuren Ryobi-Akkus macht sich also bezahlt. Wer schon einmal mit dem Billig-Schrott und den schwachbrüstigen Billig-Akkus der Supermarktketten gearbeitet hat, weiß, wovon ich rede.Da nehme ich die beiden Nachteile gerne in Kauf.Die automatische Ölzuführung dosiert viel zu hoch! Das überschüssige Öl geht im Betrieb tropfenweise ab und versaut die Umwelt. Sofort nach jedem Betrieb muß das Öl abgelassen werden, sowie die Kette und der gesamte Kettenbereich unterhalb der grauen Kunststoffabdeckung vom überschüssigem Öl entölt werden. Grund: die Säge verliert auch in Ruhezeiten permanent etwas Öl !!! Ohne die beschriebene Maßnahme wird der Lagerort unabhängig von der Lageposition in jedem Fall reichlich zugeölt !!!Mit dem 4,0 Ah-Akku (ein kleinerer Akku ist sinnlos, weil schnell entleert !!!) und dem Gestänge wiegt die gesamte Apparatur 4,250 kg. Die Säge mit ihrem fest montierten Stangenteil wiegt 2,025 kg. Da sie sich am Ende einer langen Stange befindet, macht sich das Gewicht bedingt durch das physikalische Hebelgesetz am anderen Ende der Stange heftigst bemerkbar, auch wenn die Gewichtsangaben auf den ersten Blick nicht so hoch erscheinen! Die Säge ist derartig schwer zu handeln, daß sie am besten mit zwei Personen verwendet wird. Einer packt in der Stabmitte an und führt die Säge an das Objekt und ein Zweiter packt am Ende des Stabes an und erledigt das Ein-/Ausstellen. Auf Grund des Hebelgesetzes ist das Handling von der Stabmitte aus natürlich wesentlich leichter. Wenn einer allein am untersten Ende anpackt und das Gerät vom Boden aus zum Ast hochhebt, dann ist das wirklich unzumutbar schwer. Die Säge ist so schwer, daß sich der Stab in der waagerechten Position leicht durchbiegt. Verlängert man mit ein oder zwei nachgekauften Mittelteilen, dann wird der Stab in dieser Position fast zu einem U. Also auf jeden Fall sollte man es bei der dreiteiligen Stab-Garnitur belassen.Ansonsten handelt es sich sowohl bei der Säge als auch beim Akku um eine hervorragende Qualität. Die Säge geht durch jede Holzart durch wie Butter.Die hohe Qualität der Säge und des starken 4.0 Ah-Akkus schlagen sich natürlich im Gewicht nieder. Damit muß man eben leben.
