Halil, I am told there are 2 types available in paphos. An electric one which works from the car battery and a pneumatic one, prices start from around £200.00.
If you are interested I can try and get some more details.

Halil, I managed to get some information for you.
The ones I found are the electrical type which connect to a car battery.
There are 2 types. One for collecting from inside the tree and another type for the outside.

Picture no 1 is the complete unit for collecting from the outside of the tree. It is 2.55 meters in total length and the cost is £175.00

Image

Picture no 2 shows the handle and motor. It comes with a 12 meter cable.

Image

Picture no 3 shows the different heads for inside and outside collecting. The attachment for inside the tree collection is 1.9 meters and costs £125.00


Image

This product is made in Crete (Greece) and is imported to Cyprus by:
Costas Polydorou & Emeka (E) Ltd.
There main office is in Nicosia,
7a Skiathou, Pallouriotisa.
Tel: 22431418

I saw the unit in there showroom in Paphos.

One extra advice I was given by an olive collector. The olives collected with an automatic comb is only good for producing oil. The olives for eating must be collected manually as the machine leaves bruises on the fruit.
