Black & Decker Alligator Lopper 4.5-AMP Electric Chain Saw #LP1000


Black & Decker Alligator Lopper 4.5-AMP Electric Chain Saw #LP1000



The Alligator Lopper’s wide 4-inch jaw capacity easily chews through small trunks and logs.


Because the Alligator Lopper cuts side-to-side instead of up and down, the chain won’t bury itself in the ground when the cut is completed — saving wear and tear on the cutting surface.


The Alligator Lopper’s controlled, smooth cutting action makes clean-up from storms or simple pruning easy, safe, and fast.

Black & Decker’s Power Saws — Driven by Quality
Black & Decker offers both cordless and electric chain saws, including the Alligator Lopper electric chain saw and 18-volt cordless chain saws. Chain saws feature powerful motors for fast cutting and a sturdy, lightweight design that makes them exceptionally easy to use.

The Alligator Lopper Makes Cutting a Breeze
Take a big bite out of fallen trees, tree limbs and brush with the Alligator Lopper — a revolutionary cutting tool that provides chainsaw-like cutting performance in an un-intimidating tool. With its scissor-like action, the Alligator Lopper’s rugged metal jaws clamp onto logs, thick branches, tree limbs, and vines — and then saw right through them. Once limbs and branches are on the ground, the Alligator Lopper is perfect for chopping them up into manageable pieces to throw away or chuck into your fireplace.

This amazing saw boasts a rugged 4.5 amp motor for fast, powerful chomping through wood — plus a heavy-duty cutting bar and chain to really chew through dense branches and logs. This model also features auto chain tensioning to keep the tool in top cutting form. Just loosen the bar retainer bolts with the included wrench and the bar automatically takes out the slack and adjusts the chain’s tension perfectly.

The Alligator Lopper’s jaws offer the ultimate in controlled cutting. The rugged metal guards that cover the jaws protect you from the cutting chain, and they immediately snap back over the blades once the cut is complete. The Alligator Lopper’s jaws also mean that there’s no skipping around at the start of a cut. Unlike traditional chainsaws, the lopper cuts side-to-side instead of from top to bottom. This sideways cutting action prevents the cutting chain from burying itself in the dirt as the chain completes its cut.

The Alligator Lopper also makes it much faster and easier to cut logs, because you’ll never need to prop them up on saw horses or on other any other brace. Just grab the logs in the Alligator Lopper’s jaws and cut right through them.

Customer Review: GREAT IDEA, POOR DESIGN
This tool is a great idea, but poorly designed, engineered, and executed. When using the tool, the turning blade throws chips back into the closed “jaws” that clamp onto a branch when cutting; result is that chips collect behind, over, and under the turning chain and quickly throw the chain off its spinning oval wheel. I’ve never gotten more than 10 minutes of work out of it without having to take it all apart, clean out the chain area, and reinstall the chain!! Hours later you realize that you haven’t accomplished much on your project because you’ve spent at least as much time taking apart, cleaning out, and reinstalling the chain. (It’s like riding a bicycle and the chain falls off every 10 minutes. But there is no fix.) I have examined the chain, and it is the right length/not too long. The tool continually throws chips into the back of the jaws and sooner rather than later forces the chain off its mount. You would think that the Black and Decker engineers would have figured this out ahead and at least designed jaws that were a metal open frame, or some other design, so that some chips could fall through at least, rather than the closed bucket for incoming chips. And by the way, the tool is not designed with a lever or clamp to keep these jaws open when it’s unplugged and disengaged (see above) when you’re working on it; consequently, it’s really enjoyable to be trying to spring the jaws open at the same time that you’re trying to clean out chips and remount the chain. Your hands get gouged in the process as the jaws have sharp enough teeth to hold onto a branch and they’re spring-loaded to stay closed. Possibly you could keep the handles open at the same time, which might help, with that fifth hand? A lever or lock to keep it open would have been simple. To get the job done, a tool like this doesn’t need 2 jaws anyway; one is enough to hold the branch against the blade, the other is just in the way. Oh, did I mention oil? The manual basically says to keep adding oil all the time–so even if the chain didn’t continually get forced off, you would still be stopping your work to add oil. And, do you think like most tools there would be some way to gauge how much oil is in the oil tank? No way. No clear reservoir so that you can see how much you filled it, when you do, and how much remains in the reservoir. The bottle of oil sent with the unit is ridiculous; you have to use the nose of the bottle to press through a plastic opening on the unit and squeeze the bottle. While doing this, the bottle spout pushes closed; and again, you can’t tell how much might have gone into the reservoir, how much it holds, or if it needs any at the time. The whole deal is just bad design, engineering and execution. Thank you for wasting my money, B&D.

A lot of these favorable reviews must be from company hires. Wait for Stihl or some other company to come out with something that’s designed for real work, not just marketing.
