The long-reach Ultra Light kit: a 4-part fibreglass and carbon ArboRapid telescopic pole, the BERGER 15in (38cm) pole saw and a 5129 weatherproof sheath.

Carbon keeps the pole light enough to work overhead all day, and stiff enough that it won't bow at full extension, so cuts stay controlled. It extends steplessly from 1.71m to 6.13m, for a working height of about 8.2m, and the click system takes every BERGER ArboRapid attachment.

The saw blade is hard chrome-plated carbon steel with triple-ground, impulse-hardened teeth that cut with little resistance, leaving clean wounds that heal well. A bark-cutting blade and branch hook are built in. Made in Germany by BERGER, family-owned toolmakers since 1919.
