Revolutionizing Landscaping: Milwaukee Unveils Game-Changing M18™ Brushless Telescoping Pole Pruning Shears for Effortless, Eco-Friendly Precision!

Introducing Milwaukee's latest game-changer: the M18 Brushless Telescoping Pole Pruning Shears, meticulously designed with outdoor trade professionals in mind. Say farewell to tedious manual pruning; these shears deliver swift, precise cuts, transforming the pruning experience into a breeze.

Tony Buxton, Director of Product Marketing at Milwaukee Tool, shared his insights: "Following the phenomenal success of our M12™ Brushless Pruning Shears tailored for tight-access pruning, we embarked on a mission to create a solution compatible with our M18™ battery system, catering to professionals needing extended reach pruning capabilities. The result? The industry-first M18™ Brushless Telescoping Pole Pruning Shears, showcasing our commitment to crafting innovative solutions that boost operator productivity."

Crafted for extended reach bypass pruning, these shears ensure optimal cut quality for vegetation health, slicing through branches up to 1-¾ inches thick effortlessly. Compared to manual methods, they reduce peak muscle activation by up to 80% and complete tasks up to three times faster. Equipped with an ergonomic adjustment collar, users can easily adjust the length from 7 feet collapsed to 10 feet fully extended. The attachment-free extended reach of up to 12 feet enhances efficiency in handling long-reach applications.

A game-changer for landscapers, these shears operate without gas, minimizing environmental impact and eliminating the hassle of fuel management. Additionally, they offer a much quieter alternative to gas-powered tools, providing a more pleasant working environment for both users and those nearby. Teamed with a M18™ REDLITHIUM™ HIGH OUTPUT™ XC6.0 Battery Pack, these telescoping pole pruning shears can execute up to 2,000 cuts per charge in 1-inch branches. Fully compatible with over 250 solutions in the M18™ system, they offer versatility and reliability across various tasks.
