Pole saw STANLEY SFMCPS620M1 — 18V Li‑Ion battery, 20 cm bar, 4.3 m cutting reach

STANLEY SFMCPS620M1 is a battery-powered pole saw from the STANLEY FATMAX V20 range, powered by an 18 V Li‑Ion battery and fitted with a 20 cm guide bar and chain. The tool is built for pruning and cutting smaller branches at height, offering an extendable pole and an angled head to reach awkward positions. The kit includes an 18 V 4.0 Ah battery and a 2 A charger, and the pole saw has an integrated battery charge indicator and a hanging hook for storage.

Advantages

The compact 20 cm bar and chain deliver controlled cutting for small to medium branches while maintaining maneuverability. An angled head and blade geometry improves access to hard-to-reach growth and enables more precise cuts. A built-in chain brake stops the chain in under one second for increased safety during unexpected stops, and the toolless chain adjustment simplifies maintenance. The integrated battery state-of-charge indicator makes runtime management straightforward, and the included 4.0 Ah battery provides extended operation compared with smaller capacity cells.

Suitable for

• Homeowner tree pruning and light limb removal
• Hedge trimming and shaping in gardens and orchards
• Clearing high or awkwardly positioned branches without ladders
• General maintenance of small trees and shrubs

How to use

Charge the supplied 18 V 4.0 Ah battery fully in the included 2 A charger before first use and check the battery state-of-charge indicator. Assemble and extend the pole to the required length following the manufacturer's alignment marks, then ensure the chain is tensioned correctly using the tool-free adjustment. Hold the pole saw with both hands, position the angled head against the branch, and apply steady forward motion without forcing the tool. Use short, controlled cuts on branches within the 20 cm bar capacity and avoid side-loading the chain. Retract the pole and remove the battery or engage the chain brake when finished or before storing on the integrated hanging hook.

Usage recommendations

For safe and effective results, wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection, gloves and sturdy footwear, follow local safety guidance for working at height, and inspect the chain condition and tension regularly. Use the STANLEY FATMAX V20 battery system guidance for charging cycles to preserve battery life and store the tool in a dry place on the integrated hook when not in use.
