Ryobi 18V One+ Pole Pruner OPP1820 Questions & Answers
VerifiedMPN:OPP1820Would the new hedge trimmer attachment R18PHTA20 fit the old pruner pole RPP1820Li20. I have bought the new hedge sweep but can’t seem to attach it on my old unit.
Can I use the pole+ pruner without the pole. Or is there a shorter attachment I can use for jobs that I don't need a pole for?
Does the pole from an OPP1850 pole saw fit the Ryobi hedge trimmer
Does a opp1820 pole fit on the hedge trimmer attachment or do i have to buy the pole attachment for $220 cheers
Does an ahf05 hedge trimmer fit to an opp1820 drive
why is there a sponge in oil reservoir ryobi pole saw?
I would think it would help stop oil sloshing and spilling when it is held at an unusual angle when you are trimming vegetation. Mine doesn't leek any oil but I sometimes see some residue around the chain saw attachment exit.
I have the OHT1850S and have recently purchased the OPP18 but went to use it yesterday for the first time only to find out that the connection is different. Are they any adapters available?
Don’t know is there are adaptors. But did notice that the connections changed in the 2019 models. The 2015 to 2019 connections are different, so the attachment that you recently purchased won’t fit the older models, which still have the same model number. Quite annoying as the blurb implies that it will work with that model.

What was the cost of the Ryobi 18V One + Pole Pruner OPP1820 2018.?
$199 for skin of pole primer attachment. I already had batteries and pole for the chain saw version which interchange with this April 2021
What is difference between an opp1820 & opp1850 pole saw. I have used a opp1820 (borrowed) & it was great but I can only find opp1850 at Bunnings, also how many poles come with a new one & is there product number for the saw , pole, battery (2 ?) & charger. As Bunnings have only the skin. Await your reply Many Thanks Nev Solomon.
Nev I bought my unit originally as a pole hedge trimmer 1850 style skin and it was so successful that I got the chain saw skin. I had a 5 size battery and charger from my first purchase so I still use that and I decided to get an aftermarket battery spare set of 2 as I'm retired and the price difference for the real battery was shall we say significant. I figured if one out two worked I was still ahead. They all work very well. Getting back to the saw or hedging unit I bought it and a spare pole which is same model at Bunnings. I had to order it in as they didn't have stock but it was only about 3 days to wait. The whole set of my gear hasn't disappointed and even my son and daughters are all now converts if one can use that term. My initial concerns re the straps and balance have virtually all gone as we all became more proficient.One of my daughters is fairly light short build and we thought she mightn't handle it but she loves this stuff now and hates going back to leads and lugging all the extras around. So I hope this in some way answers your query. I did note that Ryobi has altered some model numbers which can be confusing as the two units look pretty much the same. Just note your numbers and order based on that and the system works ok.
Thanks Ken.
The units are still performing well as of today as are the after market batteries
Can you purchase an Allen key for the pole chain saw
Most allen keys are either metric or imperial and can be bought in various lengths and configurations from Bunnings or hardware stores so if you contact Ryobi maybe they can tell you what size and type you need. Mt guess would be its metric.
If the unit is under 6 years old they may replace it on the extended warrantee if you registerd it when you bought it or have the receipt copy. Being an engineer now retired I haven't dismantled these but it should be easy enough to fix. using a standard key.
Thanks Ken yes realise that but getting 1 with totally different sized ends might be a mission
Cheers

Opp18 pruner doesn't match hedge trimmer pole OHT1850S
I only have one Ryobi 18v pole and it fits both the hedge trim and chain saw without a problem. I bought the pole with the chain saw attached first then after I found it does such a great job I bought the hedge attachment and that also works on the same pole.
Thanks Ken. The Opp18 pruner is 2021. The hedge trimmer pole OHT1850S is 2016. They have changed the connection a bit after only 5 years. Maybe you bought yours at the same time?
18v Ryobi pole saw is leaking oil. Can this be fixed or should I return it? I’ve used it once.
Is there pole hedge trimmer that's compatible with the pole pruner OPP1820?
where can i buy spare extension pole and how much model opp1820
Theoretically, Bunnings Special Orders should be able to track one down. For myself, when I bought it, the pole pruner and the pole hedge-trimmer happened to be on special at Bunnings - so I bought both, thereby giving me an additional extension. You might want to find out what the 'spare part' costs versus a new and different, but compatible tool. Ryobi does overcharge for spares, in my experience.
(Several times I've gone in intending to buy a spare Ryobi battery for my tools. They're so pricey I've always wound up buying a second drill, it's something like $100 for the battery/spare-part and $200 for a drill, a charger, some odds and sods, and two(!!) batteries!)
Note: by combining the two extensions with the one saw - with the bottom and the top - I had effectively four lengths - and that's right at the edge of the saw's safe usability. It's very unwieldy and the chances that something might break are very high. No sudden movements!
Second Note: Based on recent experience, :-(( if you're using a saw at this kind of extension - it's entirely possible to cut the wrong branch off! Make it a two-person job - a spotter and helper with the saw when it's off, and the operator.
I have a problem somewhere in the handle first pole section. Same battery and upper pole sections work on another lower section my son has but not on mine. Any clues?
I saw a video where there is a fuse in one of the poles. Pretty dumb design.
We have just bought a pole pruner and after trying to use it, we are a little confused. When the extension pole is not connected, the saw head works perfectly. When the extension pole is connected, the chain runs in the opposite direction and won’t cut at all. We have checked all connections carefully. Any ideas???
Can I use Canola oil in my Ryobi OPP1850 pole pruner?
My pruner worked fine one day and did not work at all the next day. The battery is fully charged but the motor has no activity at all. What do I do next?
If you stored the pole pruner upright, oil can run down into the motor area and then during use can burn out the connectors.
If you have a knowledgable friend, connectors can be accessed and replaced and possibly restore use. I had this problem and fixed it and got the tool running again.
Another thought is that a contact point in one of the joins has flattened a bit so the connections may need a little adjustment to reconnect. A screwdriver to gently lift the metal contacts a bit may work.
