HF pole saw doesn't suck
PORTLAND
9.5 In. 7 Amp Corded Electric Pole Saw
Worked great out of the box. Cut through a healthy 8" tree branch in about 10 seconds just using the weight of the power head (as instructed). $59 on sale. Saved myself $400 on an emergency tree trim when I found a 30 foot, 12" limb was splitting at the trunk. It would have fallen across CATV and phone lines as well as the trellis on top of my neighbors wall. Used this and a 28 foot extension ladder on the CATV strand to start cutting 3 foot sections off the limb. Got 'em off the lines (just a few light branches fell in the neighbors yard) and then took the limb off at the crack in the trunk with a 14" Craftsman chain saw. Has an auto oiler so you just keep the levels in check. At full 9' extension its a little hard to handle but the instructions say dont extend past 60 degrees, makes sense. Stay safe.....
