Salak (Salacca edulis, Reinw) which its fruits known as snake fruit is a kind of palm plant that grows in the highlands. Tree of snake fruit has stems with many thorns and has long and thorny stalks. Its fruit bunches are closed to the tree, so it is not easy to harvest and to get intact fruit bunches. The purpose of this research was to design a simple and manually operated harvester so that it can speed up the harvesting time of operator. This tool had a sickle-shaped cutting knife and a net to catch underneath. The handle of the cutter and handrail sticks were made of aluminum pipe material. This tool functionally cut one snake fruit bunch and the bunch felt right in the net so that the damage of the fruit bunch could be minimized and shortened the harvesting time. Harvester was tested by 5 operators that harvesting 10 trees each. Collected data was analyzed by using descriptive method and the results showed that the designed harvesting tool worked well with the effectiveness of intact harvested fruit bunch was about 84,0% and with average harvesting time of 8,31 minutes
