Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are batteries included with this kit?

No, this is a tool-only kit. You must own or purchase an 18V ONE+ battery and charger separately.

How long is the reach of these tools?

Both tools feature telescopic shafts that allow for significant height extension, though the exact reach depends on the user's height and angle of operation.

Does the pole saw require special oil?

Yes, you should use standard bar and chain oil to ensure the automatic lubrication system functions correctly.

Can I use these in the rain?

It is not recommended to use electric power tools in wet conditions. Always store them indoors in a dry environment.

What is the maximum branch thickness for the pole saw?

The 20cm pole saw is designed for pruning branches; avoid exceeding the bar length capacity to prevent motor strain.

Troubleshooting

Tool fails to start

Check that the 18V ONE+ battery is fully seated and clicked into place; ensure the battery is charged.

Pole saw chain is not cutting effectively

Check if the chain is dull and needs sharpening, or if the bar and chain oil reservoir is empty.

Hedge trimmer stalling during cuts

Clear any jammed branches from the blade teeth and ensure you are not trying to cut stems thicker than the tool's capacity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for ladders when pruning tall hedges or branches
  • Part of the Ryobi 18V ONE+ ecosystem for battery compatibility
  • Articulating head allows for custom cutting angles
  • Automatic chain oiling ensures smooth saw operation
  • Lightweight design compared to gas-powered equivalents

Cons

  • Battery and charger sold separately
  • Requires maintenance of chain oil levels
  • Extended reach can become heavy on the arms over time

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before operation, ensure that you have a fully charged Ryobi 18V ONE+ battery. Because these are part of the ONE+ system, you can use any existing Ryobi 18V battery you already own. For the pole saw, check the oil reservoir and ensure you use appropriate bar and chain oil to keep the cutting mechanism lubricated. After use, wipe down the blades and chain area to remove sap and debris. If storing for an extended period, remove the battery from the tool and store it in a cool, dry place. Regularly inspect the chain tension on the pole saw, as chains naturally loosen with usage and may require periodic adjustments via the tensioning screw.
