Build my procurement briefGuide, cutting length and pole length
HAIDAO calls the saw telescopic, yet the parameter list prints a single overall length. There is no minimum and maximum extension and no head-angle range. Ask for both before you plan working height.
| Published figure | What to settle for your pruning job |
|---|---|
| 200 mm guide and 150 mm cutting length | Both figures appear on the page. Ask HAIDAO for the bar geometry and the largest branch it supports on your trees. |
| 1765 × 70 × 110 mm overall | One overall size with no telescopic end points or head adjustment. Request the extended length and head positions to work out reach. |
| 1620 × 140 × 170 mm carton | The carton is shorter than the tool. Ask how the pole splits or folds for packing and how it is assembled on arrival. |
| Your trees | Give branch species and condition, where the branches sit and how you reach them. Ask HAIDAO for the supported limits on that job. |
Published specifications
Read each value with its stated conditions, and ask the manufacturer for any limit not listed here.
| Specification | Published value | Meaning / limit |
|---|---|---|
| Model and power | H18 RHBS-402FC2; 18 V; 800 W maximum output [1] | A peak figure. Ask HAIDAO for the continuous rating if you plan long pruning sessions. |
| Guide and cutting length | 200 mm guide (8 inch); 150 mm cutting length [1] | Two separate figures. Ask which branch diameter HAIDAO supports for your species. |
| Chain | 3/8 inch pitch; 1.1 mm thickness; 8 m/s chain speed [1] | Order replacements by the chain and bar part code and drive-link count, which the page leaves out. |
| Oil tank | 100 mL chain oil [1] | Ask for the oil grade, how oil is fed to the chain and the refill routine. |
| Size and weight | 1765 × 70 × 110 mm overall; 2.8 kg with a 4 Ah battery [1] | Weight with one pack fitted. The page gives one overall length and no extended length. |
| Battery and charger | H18B4: 18 V / 4.0 Ah; H18FC charger: 220 V input, 21 V / 2.0 A output [1] | The heading offers two batteries and two chargers. Confirm the box contents and a charger for your mains supply. |
Chain, oil and saw head
The close-up picture shows the HAIDAO guide, chain, head and several controls. For servicing you need the manual and the part list, which the product page does not include. For cuts made from the ground rather than overhead, HAIDAO lists the H36 CS40-401C chainsaw.
| Detail on the page | What to ask for |
|---|---|
| 3/8 inch / 1.1 mm chain | Chain and bar part codes, drive-link count, mounting and sprocket fit. Pitch and thickness alone will not pick a replacement. |
| 8 m/s chain speed | This is linear chain speed. Ask for the speed under load and how it was measured; it says nothing about cuts per minute. |
| 100 mL oil tank | Oil grade, lubrication checks and service steps. Ask whether oiling is automatic or adjustable. |
| Head and pole joints | Locking, alignment, guard or transport cover and inspection steps for the supplied assembly. Ask before fitting any other head or extension. |
H18 battery kit and run time
The model heading offers two batteries and two chargers, while the weight row counts one 4 Ah pack. HAIDAO names the pack and charger but gives no pruning run time. The H18 RHHT-402FC2 pole hedge trimmer and H18 SCHT compact hedge trimmers sit in the same H18 range, so ask whether one pack fits all three.
| Kit item | Details and what to confirm |
|---|---|
| H18B4 pack | 18 V, 4.0 Ah, 0.6 kg. Confirm the pack interface and the exact pack supplied. Packs from other platforms are not listed for this saw. |
| H18FC charger | 220 V input, 21 V / 2.0 A output, 2 h charge. Ask for a charger nameplate and instructions that suit your mains supply. |
| Two packs, two chargers | Confirm pack and charger counts and any strap or covers in the box. The tool runs on one pack at a time unless HAIDAO states otherwise. |
| 2.8 kg with a 4 Ah battery | Tool weight with one pack. Bare weight, boxed weight and full kit weight are not given. |
| Run time | No run time, cuts per charge or continuous duty at 800 W is published. Ask HAIDAO for a loaded run-time figure on your branches. |
Handling, noise, vibration and training
HAIDAO labels the sound-pressure level at 104 dB(A) and the vibration at 2.8 m/s² front and 2.3 m/s² rear. No test standard, uncertainty or load condition is given. Ask for the test report before you plan operator exposure or compare the saw with others.
Ask HAIDAO for the operating and maintenance instructions and for a demonstration on your kind of job, using the supplied chain, pole joints, pack and carrying strap. Tool length and a strap picture alone will not tell you the reach or a comfortable working position.
For operator skills, Lantra's powered pole pruner course covers practical handling, chain and guide-bar maintenance and checks before cutting. It is a general UK training course, useful as a guide to the topics an operator should know; local rules in your country apply to qualifications.
Order details and after-sales support
HAIDAO's repair policy is written for mainland China. For an export order, set the full configuration and support terms in the contract, including the pole length and chain details still missing from the page. Battery-pack and EU, UK and US document points for pole tools are covered in our guide to buying handheld petrol and battery garden tools.
Technical details
Full H18 RHBS-402FC2 identification, pole, head, bar and chain part numbers, supported pruning limits, telescopic range and current manual.
Kit and records
Pack and charger counts, electrical documents, carrying and transport items, and any test records HAIDAO holds for the build. Ask for a packing list.
Service parts
Matching chain and bar, oil and joint-service instructions, traceable part numbers and replacement supply. Order by part code, since “8 inch” and the HAIDAO name are not enough.
Warranty abroad
The one-year repair guarantee applies in mainland China, with paperwork and exclusions. Agree the seller, overseas parts, repair and freight in writing.
Buyer questions
Can the saw cut a 200 mm branch?
200 mm is the guide length. HAIDAO separately lists a 150 mm cutting length and gives no branch test. Ask which branch size it supports on your trees. [1]
How far does the pole reach?
The page gives only the 1765 mm overall length, although the saw is called telescopic. Ask HAIDAO for the extended length and head-angle range. [1] [2]
Does the saw use both batteries at once?
The kit includes two packs, but nothing says the tool runs on two at a time. Ask HAIDAO to confirm the operating setup and box contents. [1]
Is chain tension adjusted without tools?
The head picture shows a knob, but no adjustment procedure is published. Ask for the manual and part list. [3]
Is the one-year repair cover valid abroad?
The published guarantee covers mainland China. Agree overseas support and transport terms with the seller. [4]
