Stihl Pruner Attachment?

[karoc]

Don’t know if this should go here or Free Parking so please forgive me.
While at my future retirement place (if live long enough) mowing my weeds I see that have lot of low lying limbs that needs trimming. Since I have Stihls Kombi that will except several attachments which one is this pruner. Wondering if anyone has this attachment and if you like it?

Nice tool. If you want a workout I like the Stihls pole pruner and extensions, maybe add a Silky blade for some pruning projects.

I love mine. Mine is an earlier design. I believe they're using an even narrower chain now, for improved cut speed.

I have one, with the extension. Sometimes I wish I had more length with it so I could get higher branches, but otherwise it does the job.

If you want a workout

Are you saying it takes a toll on the upper body to use one?

maybe add a Silky blade for some pruning projects.

What is this?

I bought a Kombi power head and the powersweep head. That thing is SO heavy I can hardly use it. I put the wheel kit on it and it's better but.......
Yes, I am and old fat man that has lost a TON of upper body strength that I am working to regain some of.

Yep, I have a Kombi system with the older 130r powerhead. It's been a beast over the years (about 7 years old). I would definately recommend the 131r powerhead with the pole saw attachment as it uses quite a bit of power. My 130r has no issue running it, but I bet the smaller heads would struggle.

I have the Echo combi system and find that the pruner attachment is heavy and especially when adding the 3 foot extension. The power head with the pruner only is much lighter feeling to use and especially when extended. My neighbor has one that I have tried and its much lighter in use than the combi system. (I used combi as spelling as Kombi is trademarked).
