GARDENA Tree Shears StarCut Pro L Set T-handle, adjustable length 175–400 cm, pruning head

The Tree Shears GARDENA StarCut Pro L Set T-handle 175cm-400cm is a telescopic pruning tool designed for cutting and shaping higher branches without the need for a ladder. The set includes a long adjustable aluminum pole with a T-handle and the StarCut Pro L cutting head, combining an extended reach with a bypass cutting mechanism to make clean cuts on live wood. The tool is intended for general garden tree maintenance, offering reach variability from 175 cm up to 400 cm to adapt to different pruning heights.

Advantages

The adjustable telescopic pole provides a wide working range while remaining lightweight due to its aluminum construction. The T-handle improves control and leverage when positioning the cutting head at height. The StarCut Pro L cutting head uses a bypass-style action for precise, clean cuts that support healthy regrowth. The set combines reach, maneuverability and cutting performance in a single tool suitable for homeowner and garden-care tasks.

Suitable for

• Pruning and trimming tree branches at various heights without a ladder
• Shaping small to medium-sized ornamental and fruit trees
• Routine garden maintenance and seasonal pruning

Key specifications

• Adjustable length: 175 cm to 400 cm
• Pole material: aluminum (lightweight construction)
• Handle type: T-handle for improved grip and control
• Cutting head: StarCut Pro L with bypass cutting action for clean cuts on live wood
• Intended use: manual, long-reach pruning of tree branches

How to use

Select the required pole length to reach the branch while maintaining a stable stance. Position the T-handle to obtain a comfortable grip and align the cutting head with the target branch. Use steady, controlled motion to engage the bypass blades around the branch and apply cutting pressure until the cut is complete. For thicker branches, make sure the branch diameter is within the effective cutting capacity of the StarCut Pro L head and adjust your approach or perform progressive cuts as needed. After use, retract the pole to a compact length for storage and inspect the blades for debris or sap.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when pruning. Avoid cutting branches that exceed the cutting head's capacity; use a saw or call a professional for larger limbs. Keep the cutting head clean and periodically check blade sharpness to maintain cutting performance and reduce damage to trees.
