Re: Busy weekend/pruning

Right, saw does not come off the pole. Kinda wish it did, but saw's at one end of the pole and the battery's at the other.

Yeah- I checked that too. The thing with that one is that you can't seem to take the chainsaw off of the pole and just use as a chainsaw. That probably won't work for me. But that's for the info.

Okay, went on-line to B&D's website. It's 6-1/2 feet long without the extension, 10 feet with. It weighs 7-1/2 pounds--they don't say, but I assume that includes the extension.

I have a Black & Decker cordless power saw [NPP2018]. It's a pole saw, with an extension. It's about 6 feel long without the extension, and not terribly heavy. Very easy to use, in fact. I've never used the extension, but I guess that would make the thing 10 to 12 feet long. I think they recommend not cutting branches larger than 3 inch diameter, but I've cut some as thick as 6 inches. I've had the saw for a couple of years and used it maybe a dozen times--all on the first charging of the battery. I've looked through the manual and can't find anything about how long it actually is or what it weighs. There is a phone number--800-544-6986--for questions; presumably they know.

Hey-
Does anyone have a small electric chainsaw that they like? If so- more
info please. I know I want to get one, but thought I'd get some advise-

Donna, I love to prune! I think you should leave those lower limbs on.
The closer foliage is to the roots the faster you have energy exchange.
Better to not prune newer trees until they get established.
