ABSTRACT:
A tool for olive-picking, includes a rod bearing, at one of its ends, a handle with which a lever is associated, for controlling a pneumatic actuator located at an opposite end of the rod. The actuator swings a comb provided with tines, each of them being made up of two sections having a thicker and a thinner diameter respectively. Each tine is coated with a sheath of elastic and yielding material, which prevents olives from being damaged during the picking, that is carried out by inserting the comb among the branches first, and then by the subsequent swinging, controlled by the actuator.
