Tijera de yunque Fiskars PowerStep L85 1000585

The Fiskars PowerStep L85 pruning shears are long-handled anvil loppers designed for cutting branches up to 4 cm thick. Constructed with a slender aluminum and durable plastic handle in Fiskars’ signature orange, these shears combine reach and leverage with a lightweight profile. With an overall length of 570 mm and a weight of 690 g, the tool is intended for routine garden maintenance and pruning of small to medium woody stems.

Advantages

The anvil cutting system provides a clean, controlled cut by closing a single blade onto a flat counter surface, reducing twisting of the branch. The aluminum handle keeps the tool light while offering sufficient stiffness for pruning tasks. The ergonomic shape and balanced weight distribution reduce strain during repeated cutting motions. The 570 mm length increases reach, letting users prune slightly higher or deeper into shrubs without needing a ladder.

Suitable for

• Pruning small to medium fruit tree branches and ornamental shrubs
• Trimming woody stems and deadwood up to 4 cm diameter
• Garden maintenance where longer reach is helpful
• Home gardeners and hobbyists working on hedges and borders

Key specifications

How to use

Position the blade above the branch and bring the anvil into contact with the stem, applying steady pressure until the blade closes fully for a single, clean cut. For branches near the maximum diameter, support the stem to prevent tearing and ensure the cut is made close to the branch collar where appropriate. Keep hands clear of the cutting zone and use both hands on the handles for larger cuts to maintain control and proper leverage.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect the blade edge and anvil surface for nicks or residue; clean after use and lubricate the pivot as needed. Use on branches within the specified 4 cm limit to avoid damage to the tool. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion of metal parts.
