The Zubat Pole Saw is a lightweight, state of the art, telescopic pole saw with an oval shaped aluminium alloy pole which offers both strength and precise control. This is a very versatile product with a wide range of uses including trimming, pruning, gardening, forestry and arboriculture. The telescopic design has two locking systems – a spring loaded locking button and friction clamps which work in tandem to ensure a strong and stable pole extension. These lightweight poles can be used from the ground or climbed with to gain greater pruning range without the use of heavier, more cumbersome equipment. It is designed with a single extension pole:- 1500 with an extension range of 2.00-3.30m The saw has a curved blade with a standard teeth ratio of 7.5 teeth per 30mm. The Zubat Pole Saw uses the same blade as the Zubat Professional 330mm Hand Saw. The blades are fully interchangeable offering added flexibility. A black rigid-plastic blade guard is included, which locks onto the blade for extra protection. The base poles have pole-end shock absorbers and a comfortable rubberised over-grip which ensures good hold and control. Zubat blades cannot be re-sharpened due to the use of electro-impulse hardening in the manufacturing process. Replacement blades are available and only require the removal of two bolts to effect the blade change. All other parts are also replaceable. Non-set Teeth Blades are made from SK-4 high carbon steel and taper ground i.e. thicker at the tooth edge, thinner at the back of the blade. This taper reduces resistance giving smoother, easier, faster cutting performance. Impulse Hardening Using a special high frequency heating technique, teeth are heated instantly and hardened. Because only the teeth are heated the blade retains its normal flexibility. Hardened teeth stay sharp about 3 times longer than non-hardened. Mirai-Me Smooth Coating The teeth of the future! Blades have precision ground, razor sharp teeth with 4 cutting angles along their length. They leave an especially smooth surface after cutting and are ideal for pruning, greatly reducing the risk of infection. They can rip-cut, cross-cut and slant-cut. Hard Chrome Plating Hard chrome plating produces an exceedingly hard, durable surface. The blades are resistant to rust and the effects of resin. They are finely or mirror polished and wipe clean easily. Rubber Handle Almost all Silky saws have rubber compound elastomer handles, either inserted or vulcanised to ABS plastic or steel. Rubber handles are more comfortable to hold, reduce vibration and offer superior grip in the cold and wet. FPA - Approved in Germany
