The ASA 20 battery-powered secateurs are the perfect tool for easy pruning, dead-heading and cutting up garden waste. Ideal if you have mobility issues, or just need the extra power to be able to cut through thicker stems with ease, the powered blades can get through green material up to 25mm in thickness.
The blades can be set to two different opening widths, depending on what you are cutting. This makes it quicker to cut smaller branches or stems as the blades won't open to the maximum width. It also has a progressive cut so you have more control over the trigger when carrying out precise cuts.
With the 10.8 volt AS 2 battery, the secateurs weigh less than 1kg so they are comfortable to use over longer periods and on a full battery charge, the ASA 20 can make up to 2000 cuts. They have a clear display on the tool, which shows the current charge level, the total number of cuts made and which blade opening width has been selected.
The secateurs come with a plastic guard to protect the blades during transport or storage and there is a handy tool included in the battery opening, which can be used to carry out maintenance tasks, such as adjusting the blades.
- Number of cuts on a full battery charge: up to 2000 cuts
Features
Progressive cut
The secateurs have a progressive cut which means that the blade only closes as much as the control lever is pressed and then immediately opens when the lever is released. This means that you have maximum control over the cut, ideal for situations when more precise cutting is required.
Two different blade opening widths
If you are only cutting thinner material, you can set the blades to a smaller opening width to help you get the job done more quickly. The blade width setting is shown on the handy display.
Maintenance tool included
A handy maintenance tool is included with the tool, which makes it easy to adjust the blades and open the service flap. The tool is neatly stored in the battery compartment so that it doesn't get lost!
OLED battery charge level display
The OLED display on the side of the tool shows the current charge level of the battery, the total number of cuts that the tool has done, as well as which blade width setting you have selected.
