Greetings, Sharon. br>br>Instructions for the Fruit Picker: 1) Securely twist the fruit harvester basket onto the telescopic pole's threaded tip. br>2) Place the fruit in the wire basket to be harvested. br>3) Gently pull down the fruit stem by lining it up between two of the long prongs. br>4) Bruising will be avoided thanks to the foam cushion. br>br>Because the telescopic pole can extend from 5 to 13 feet, it should be able to reach fruit as far as 20 feet if held overhead. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions that I can answer. br>br>Sincerely, Johnny from Eversprout, br>
A sleeve protects the pole. You release stationary clips to extend the pole and then lock them back in place. br>The clips are always at the end of the outer sleeve about 4 1/2 feet ish.br>After you pick fruit, you can release the clip and it slides down inside.br>THe clips are always at the end of the outer sleeve about 4 1/2 feet ish.
My order arrived fully assembled and in perfect condition. The basket was wrapped and attached to the pole in a protective manner. If you ordered and paid for both pieces but only received one, I would contact Amazon to find out how to return it for a refund or replacement.

It's unquestionably a winner! If it's okay with you, I'd like to submit a small Black Belt Project for improvement. For the hooks, please consider adding a small rotational view finder. The blue tape is positioned in the image so that once the tool is fully extended, the location of the hooks can be determined even when the tool is held straight above your head. Otherwise, when fully extended, the basket appears to be a wire in the sky, allowing fruit to slide in and out without catching on the hooks. br>br>Another suggestion is to include a tool with even longer hooks, which would be ideal for hard-skinned fruits such as mango and avocado. br>br>Many thanks for a fantastic tool! EDIT: br>br> Consider these two Amazon links for a cost of $5 to $8 (Prime) if you want to extend the reach of this tool even further. This enables a straightforward screw-in installation. It's a standard paint roller or broom screw thread on the last piece of the extension. br>br>Use your own wood or metal extension with this partbr>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>.
I looked in every store in town for a 20-foot picker, but most were only 10 feet long, made of wood, and heavy. (I already have one. ) As I've grown older, I've discovered that picking mangos like I used to takes a toll on my arms - Mango picking was definitely one of the highlights of my trip. a form of exercise I could hold three mangos in the basket with this lighter pole and barely feel the weight (two was my previous limit, and I was wobbling). ) I had to work on the claws to make them more user-friendly, but I did the same thing with the heavier picker. It also takes up less space than my old one and is much more convenient to use because it is collapsible without the need to remove parts. Though I was concerned that the pole would bend or break under the weight because it felt so light and flimsy the first time I used it because it felt so light and flimsy, it does the job without adding unnecessary weight. This one is fantastic, and I have no plans to return to the wooden version.
I had previously used one that consisted of two long handles joined in the middle by a metal piece. This one is much better than the other. The telescoping function of the handle is one of my favorites; it's so simple to use; simply turn a lever and pull out as much extra height as you require. This is what I did with my well-established crab-farming operation. My backyard apple tree (which produced some lovely jelly) With the exception of the uppermost branches, which I could reach with the help of a stepladder, I was able to reach every limb. The fruit picker's tines are close enough together that I had no trouble getting any of the apples off my tree, which were between an inch and an inch and a half in diameter. Overall, I'm glad I purchased this fruit picker, and I can see a lot of uses for the handle without the apple picker head and other attachments.
The fruit picker is extremely cool and can reach incredible heights. It appears to be of high quality. However, the handle had several large scrapes and one of the padded foam pieces was partially cut, which was a minor issue. Update! br>br> Eversprout got in touch with me and offered to replace my broken handle for free! With no prompting from me! Thank you, Eversprout, for your wonderful customer service.
This is a fantastic picker. For the past month, I've been picking mangoes with it. First, it allows me to puck fruit from the top of the tree, which increases the harvest. Figure 25% increase in yield at least in yield at least in yield at least 2 It's a solid piece of equipment. A hose clamp holds the basket in place and ensures that it is secure. The pole has a long reach and is not prone to slipping. It's a fantastic piece of equipment.
I had been picking mangoes from a 30-foot mango tree with an old metal pole saw. Tree with a height of 40 feet When the large fruit came crashing down, it was heavy, difficult to use, and potentially dangerous. This is ideal: it's lightweight, extends further than a pole saw, and the fruit-catching basket prevents anyone from being knocked unconscious. When it's fully extended, it's a little awkward to use, but that's to be expected. I'm 5'2" and 110 pounds, and I can handle this on my own just fine. My ten and twelve-year-old children can use it as long as it isn't more than half-extended.
My citrus trees are about 15 feet tall at the moment. Fruit can be found all the way up to the tops of the branches. I used to have to get a pole, then climb up inside the tree or use ladders to knock fruit loose that I couldn't reach otherwise. Some of the fruit was also harmed as a result of this. br>br>After seeing this type of pole in a magazine, I began looking into various brands. I ordered an Eversprout unit because it was highly rated and had many positive reviews, and I wanted to use it on the tallest tree, a red grapefruit. It would be an understatement to say that it was simple. I could reach every grapefruit on the tree, pluck it from the branch, and transport it to the ground in perfect condition. What used to take hours was completed in 30 minutes, with no scratches or thorn impalements. I'm very happy. It fits easily in the garage and is ready for the following season. br>br>All you have to do is buy one. Later, you'll be grateful to me.
This was bought so I could pick the cherries from our tree that were too high for me to reach. It was smaller than I expected and didn't work out very well for my intended purpose, though to be fair, I'm not sure it was designed for cherry picking. I wish the fruit's "basket" was bigger, and there was a way to make the claws grab the fruit. I tried putting a bag inside the basket to keep the cherries from falling out, but I couldn't tell how many cherries I actually got from the tree that way. This is something I'm not sure I'd order again.
