An elongated pole pruner for cutting and trimming trees, bushes and the like having three separable sections, that when assembled, form an extended length pruner. The pole pruner includes a first section containing a handle and battery pack, a second extension section, and a third section that contains the purner itself. Each of the sections contains an electrical conductor that is attached to corresponding conductor in an adjacent pole sections via a male plug and female receptacle. In this way, the battery pack in the first section of the pole is able to deliver power through the second section to the pruner in the third section. |

A vegetation pruning device (102) includes a pair (114, 116) of pivotably coupled handles and a motor having a rotary output drive (130) for driving an endless flexible cutting chain (108). A guard (162) is moved relative to the chain (108) by means of pivoting of the handles (114, 116) relative to each other to grip vegetation between the guard (162) and the chain (108). A gear mechanism is connected between the guard (162) and the chain (108) such that pivoting of the handles (114, 116) through a first angle relative to each other causes pivoting of the guard and chain through a second angle, larger than the first angle, relative to each other. |
