The Kimura Pro Compound Loppers are designed for avid gardeners and homeowners who need a reliable, heavy-duty tool for managing overgrown trees, dense hedges, and thick shrubs. By utilizing an advanced compound action mechanism, these loppers significantly reduce the physical strain required to cut branches up to 35mm thick, making them an excellent choice for extended yard work; however, users should be mindful that the telescopic reach requires careful handling to maintain leverage and control at full extension.

Yes, the SK5 steel blades are sharp enough for live green wood, though anvil blades are traditionally better suited for dead, hard wood.
Rotate the locking collars on the handles counter-clockwise to release, extend to your desired length, and rotate clockwise to secure.
The blades are made of high-quality Japanese steel and are designed for longevity, but should be kept sharp using a whetstone or sharpening tool.
The loppers are designed to handle branches up to 35mm in diameter.
The aluminium handles are corrosion-resistant, and the steel components are treated with anti-rust coatings.
Ensure the twist-lock mechanism is rotated firmly in the 'lock' direction until you feel resistance.
Clean the blade surface with a cloth to remove sap buildup and apply a light machine oil to the pivot point.
Ensure you are using the compound action correctly by fully opening the handles and ensuring the branch is deep within the jaw, closer to the pivot point for maximum leverage.
To prepare the loppers for use, ensure the twist-lock mechanisms are fully tightened before making a cut to prevent the handles from slipping unexpectedly.
