Fiskars PowerGear long-reach hedge shears 91 cm blade length

Fiskars PowerGear long-reach hedge shears 91 cm blade length are designed for cutting and shaping hedges and shrubs with extended reach and improved leverage. The tool combines a long cutting blade with PowerGear gearing to reduce the physical effort required for repetitive trims. Sharp steel blades deliver clean cuts to stems and branches within the cutting capacity, while long handles provide additional reach to access higher or deeper sections of hedges without ladders.

Advantages

PowerGear gearing multiplies cutting force to reduce hand and arm effort during repetitive pruning tasks. Hardened steel blades maintain a sharp edge for clean, precise cuts that support plant health. Long handles increase reach and leverage, allowing the operator to cut higher branches and inner sections of dense hedges with improved control. The design balances cutting length and ergonomics to help maintain an even hedge profile with fewer passes.

Suitable for

• Pruning and shaping formal and informal garden hedges
• Trimming long or tall shrubs and evergreen hedges
• Reaching higher branches without using a ladder
• Routine property maintenance and seasonal hedge trimming

Key specifications

• Blade length: 91 cm cutting edge suitable for long straight cuts
• Blade material: hardened steel for durable sharpness
• Drive system: PowerGear gearing to reduce manual force
• Handle length: extended handles for greater reach and leverage
• Cut type: shearing action for stems and young branches

How to use

Hold the shears with both hands on the handles and position the blades around the section of hedge to be cut. Use smooth, full strokes along the length of the blade to create even cuts; avoid short, choppy motions that can stress the blades and the plant. For taller or deeper sections, reach with the extended handles while keeping a stable stance. Inspect blades before and after use to ensure they are clean and free of sap; wipe off residues to maintain cutting performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the shears on stems and branches within their intended cutting capacity and avoid forcing the blades through thick, woody limbs. Regularly sharpen and clean the blades, and store the tool in a dry location to prolong service life. Wear appropriate protective gloves and eye protection when trimming dense hedges to reduce the risk of injury.
