Use the following steps to build the Bahco PX series hand pruner
that is perfect for you. Each step will add a number or letter to
form the complete code. Once you have the code, you can order the
perfect pruner. You can print this page out and then fill in the
code in the column to the right as you measure to make ordering
easy.
The codes are easy to understand. Here is an example code: PXR-M1.
a. The PX is standard for all PX series pruners.
b. The R designates this pruner as having a rotating handle.
c. The M is the size of the handle. M for medium, in this case.
d. The number one is the size of the cutting head. This is the smallest
size, for lighter work.
Now, it's time to build your own pruner...
