If it's too cold for sango kaku in your area try the Japanese sunrise acer palmatum this reminds me since I love it ill do a video on mine before the leaves come out
Yes, this tree takes pruning very well. Pruning also promotes new growth which has better winter color. Older branches will lose their pink color in the winter, so pruning helps generate new growth that will be a vibrant pink in winter.
You can cut dead branches anytime. Yes, you could cut it back hard as well, but I would wait until late winter/early spring next year anytime before it leafs out.
+Ross Brewer - Fall and spring are always ideal planting times, but anytime between March and October should work in the Southeastern US. Just remember to water it regularly for the first year. If you are in hardiness zone 7 or 8, I would give this tree some shade.

Can I cut it back hard? And is now (June) a good time to do it or should I wait until Fall/Winter? (ZONE 6)
