Infaco, the manufacturers of the Electrocoups, have always prioritized user safety over the years. A true pioneer in technology, the company has continually invested time and resources in order to ensure an innovative and safe experience for its users operating the Electrocoups. Today, the all-new Electrocoup F3020 come fitted with the wireless DSES system and is a standard feature on all units.
The Wireless DSES system comprises of a conductive metal trigger enabling a connection between the users body and the pruner's patented electronic system. While operating, if and when the cutting head touches any part of the opposite hand, the pruning shear blade opens instantly thereby preventing accidents.
The Wireless DSES system operates in direct contact with the skin. However, each individual has their own level of conductivity. In order achieve a continuous level of high conductivity and better protection, INFACO recommends the use of its special conductive gloves.
The Wireless DSES system may sometime trigger unintended opens on damp wood, sappy wood or when close to the ground. To prevent this from happening users now have the option of turning OFF & ON the DSES feature when required using the settings button.
Contrary to the wireless system, the wired DSES option requires the user to wear the conductive glove that is physically connected to the handpiece by a power supply cable. The wired DSES system provides the user the same protection while reducing unintentional opening of the blade because of damp or sappy wood.
Similar to its most recent predecessors, Electrocoups remain the only shears in the world with 3 interchangeable heads with adjustable blade opening and DSES safety systems. One of the tool's main assets is its versatility to use multiple cutting heads. With the options of the Standard Kit, Medium Kit or the Maxi Kit, users can easily swap the heads over in under 5 mins to meet the demands of the cutting application. Kits are optional and not part of the standard kit. Please ask for details.
Ideal for pruning grapevines and orchard pruning. This kit achieves the highest results for cutting rate and power.
Designed especially for fruit growers, forestry, and landscaping. This kit offers a higher cutting capacity while maintaining speed for relevant applications.
Perfect for cutting back vines, shaping fruit trees, and tree lopping. This kit with a single-piece blade-rack combo will give unrivaled cutting capacity.
Infaco's design engineers have completely revolutionized the pole system by creating an ergonomic and innovative solution. There are 2 different kinds of pole options available with this new model. First option is the pole can be connected to the battery through a cord and the second option is the battery can be plugged in at the bottom of the pole. Both options have the cord on the sliding handle eliminated and replaced by a more advanced wireless Bluetooth technology making it easy and convenient to use.

Regular blade sharpening reduces the cutting force exerted on the motor of the Electrocoup and also helps to reduce motor stress. Infaco recommends the use of the optional electric sharpener to help keep the blade profile sharp. Thanks to its 3-pin connector plug, the A48V3 electric sharpener is now compatible with the Electrocoup F3005, F3010, F3015, and F3020 batteries. It saves significant time on daily sharpening and maintains a good cutting profile on the blade.
See video at 1:02 for the A48V3 Electric Sharpener in action.
The new tungsten carbide burnisher helps maintain a good cutting edge on the blade. A sharp blade guarantees a good clean cut and reduces the risk of spreading wood diseases. In addition to 2 recommended daily sharpening sessions with the stone, it is also advised to use the new Carbide Burnisher to maintain a sharp edge on the blade for a good clean cut.
With latest innovations in wireless connectivity, the Electrocoup F3020 pruning shears can be connected to the newly designed INFACO mobile app (available exclusively on Android and iOS compatible smartphones) through the Bluetooth Control Box.

PEST & DISEASES - OLIVE GROWING
The Olive Lace Bug (Froggattia olivina) is an Australian native sap-sucking insect posing significant threats to olive groves. It specifically targets olive trees (Olea europaea), potentially reducing yields and causing tree death if left unmanaged. Olive lace bug infestation is considered a serious threat to the olive industry in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and across Australia.
Olive Lace Bug (Froggattia olivina) infestation on the underside of an olive leaf, showing multiple life stages
nymphs, adults, and characteristic black excrement spots.
Adults: Approximately 2-3 mm long, adults are flat, mottled dark brown and cream, featuring large, black-tipped antennae, lace-like transparent wings marked with dark patterns, and red eyes.
Juveniles (Nymphs): Undergo five moults (instars). Early instars are wingless and vary from light cream or greenish-yellow to pinkish-orange. Later instars are green to greyish-black and very spiky, with wing buds developing.
Later-stage nymphs & transition to adults
Nymphs (early instars)
Adult Olive Lace Bug
Female Olive Lace Bugs insert eggs into the tissue on the undersides of leaves, usually along the midribs. Eggs hatch into nymphs, which pass through five moults before reaching adulthood. Olive Lace Bug overwinters as eggs, with hatching typically occurring in early spring (September to October). Adults may also overwinter in protected locations on trees. Depending on climate conditions, there may be one to four generations per year, with a lifecycle ranging from 12-23 days in warm weather to up to 7 weeks in cooler conditions.
Originally native to New South Wales and southern Queensland, olive lace bugs have spread throughout Australia, excluding the Northern Territory. The movement of olive plants and industry activities have facilitated this spread. Juvenile bugs, relatively immobile, cluster on leaf undersides and are easily spread through planting materials, workers, and tools. Adults disperse via short flights or wind

Heavy infestations significantly affect tree vigor, delaying flowering and fruiting, reducing yields for up to two seasons, and potentially causing young tree death. Mature trees can also be severely affected, with death observed in extreme cases.
Known hosts include native mock olive (Notelaea longifolia) and cultivated olives (Olea europaea).
By proactively managing olive lace bug, you safeguard the health and productivity of your olive groves, ensuring sustained profitability.
COOKING WITH OLIVE OIL
RESEARCH: As air frying technology gains popularity for its ability to produce crispy, flavorful food with less oil, the choice of frying oil becomes critical - not just for taste, but for health and oil stability. A recent peer-reviewed study published in European Food Research and Technology compared the performance of four commonly used oils - ghee, sunflower oil, sesame oil, and virgin olive oil - under both conventional and air frying conditions. The findings clearly demonstrate that virgin olive oil is the superior option, particularly when air frying is involved.
Although ghee is often cited for its heat resistance due to its high saturated fat content (65.5%), the study revealed significant oxidative degradation under frying conditions. During conventional heating, ghee reached a peroxide value of 45.23 meq active O₂/kg, the highest among all samples. When heated in an air fryer, ghee still showed substantial oxidation, with a peroxide value of 28.39 meq active O₂/kg. Polar compound formation - associated with oil spoilage and reduced nutritional quality - was also elevated. Additionally, ghee demonstrated the lowest β-carotene extraction capacity during frying, even when carrots were added.
“The maximum peroxide value reached after the processes in the air fryer was found to be 28.39 meq active O₂/kg oil for heating of ghee” (Baskaya-Sezer, 2025, p12)
Sunflower oil showed a high degree of degradation, owing to its very high linoleic acid content (52.74%), which is particularly vulnerable to oxidation. Under conventional frying, peroxide values rose to 11.15 meq O₂/kg, and significant color darkening and nutrient loss occurred. Even under air frying, its performance was marginal, with β-carotene levels lower than olive oil and sesame oil.
“Sunflower oil had the highest polar compound contents for the fresh and the treated (heated and fried) samples” (Baskaya-Sezer, 2025, p.17)
Sesame oil benefited from inherent antioxidants like sesamol, which helped suppress oxidation to some extent. It performed better than ghee and sunflower oil in peroxide and polar compound formation, but it failed to match the nutrient retention of virgin olive oil.
“The reason why the polar compound in sunflower oil is high may result from their unsaturated fatty acid compositions... the low polar compound content of the sesame oil group might be the unsaponifiable substances responsible for high stability, such as sesamol” (Baskaya-Sezer, 2025, p. 17)
Virgin olive oil showed exceptional resilience under both air and conventional frying, particularly:
“The highest amount of β-carotene was extracted in virgin olive oil in the air-fryer... peroxide values were significantly lower than in conventional frying” (Baskaya-Sezer, 2025, p. 12)
The study clearly indicates that while ghee, sunflower oil, and sesame oil each have some redeeming qualities, their weaknesses show under frying conditions - especially with oxidative instability and limited nutrient retention - make them less ideal for air frying. Virgin olive oil consistently outperformed the alternatives, making it the most balanced choice for consumers prioritising health, quality, and performance in modern cooking.
