Pellenc has recently introduced a new model of Treelion to the range of tools which will suit the fruit grower.
The new model is a 1500 mm length Treelion, which complements the existing hand-held and 900 mm length tools.
This product allows the grower to prune taller branches without the need for a lifting mechanism.
Working in much the same way as the 900 mm tool, the twin-handed tool is operated by means of a trigger on the handle and offers the same operating features as the hand-held unit.
As the components are all made of lightweight yet sturdy materials, the tool is not unwieldy and is comfortable to use.
As with all the tools in this range, the 1500 mm Treelion operates off the multi-purpose Lithium-Ion battery range, which are non-polluting, quiet, odourless, and have a record operating range enabling you to work all day without recharging.
New slim-line battery
The Poly 5, a recent addition to the range, is a slim-line battery which is perfect for tree-climbing.
This is a Lithium-Polymer battery, which offers good power to weight ratios.
The tools have been constructed to be robust enough to cope with the needs of the professional user.
Lixion pruners & Selion chainsaws
The Lixion hand-held pruner remains a favourite for smaller pruning work.
It has the lightest handpiece on the market and is powerful enough to cope with most smaller pruning jobs in fruit trees.
For heavier work there is the Selion range of pole and hand-held chainsaws, which offer incredible power and light weight.
