90521849, PSS100B specifications

The Black & Decker PSS100B is a versatile and efficient electric pole saw designed to make tree pruning and maintenance tasks easier for both homeowners and professionals. This durable tool combines power, convenience, and innovation, making it a popular choice among gardening enthusiasts.

One of the standout features of the PSS100B is its extendable reach. With an adjustable pole that telescopes from 6.5 feet up to 9.5 feet, it allows users to easily reach high branches without the need for a ladder. This feature significantly enhances safety, as it minimizes the risks associated with climbing and provides access to those hard-to-reach spots.

The PSS100B is equipped with a powerful 8-amp motor that delivers ample cutting strength. This robust motor ensures that the saw can handle a variety of tree sizes and types, making it suitable for light to medium-duty pruning jobs. Moreover, the 10-inch Oregon bar and chain provide a reliable cutting capacity, allowing users to slice through branches up to 8 inches in diameter with precision and ease.

Another notable feature of this pole saw is its auto-oiling system. This technology ensures that the chain stays lubricated during use, reducing friction and extending the life of both the chain and the bar. This means less downtime for users worrying about maintenance and more time spent on the job.

Safety is a crucial aspect of any cutting tool, and the Black & Decker PSS100B does not compromise in this area. It includes a protective guard that helps shield users from falling debris while trimming overhead branches. Additionally, the lightweight design of the saw allows for better maneuverability and reduces user fatigue, making it comfortable for extended periods of usage.

User-friendly features enhance the overall experience with the PSS100B. The tool is designed for easy assembly, and the comfortable grip handle ensures a secure hold during operation. This makes it accessible even for those with limited experience in using power tools.

In summary, the Black & Decker PSS100B is an outstanding electric pole saw that combines convenience, safety, and performance. With its extendable reach, powerful motor, auto-oiling system, and user-friendly design, it stands out as an essential tool for tree maintenance, ideal for both residential and professional use.
