I experienced the same after a heart attack, then I found this chainsaw system that lets me keep my feet on the ground so I'm jumpin back in. Google "Extended Reach Chainsaw System". I bought this with three additional poles, and I ain't climbing those trees no mowa to get the job done, lol. Hope this helps all you yougins save your bod, and us old farts from back strain and sore shoulders. Don't need to pull no cord anymore either! Just a thought....

Thanks for the info. I have a telescopic pole saw by Stihl. HT130 which goes out about 16 feet I think. Good for low limb pruning.

The pole saws have their place but not good for anything too high. If you are directly under it trying to get to a high limb it will fall on top of you. Also has a tendancy to pinch the bar a bit.

Using the pole saw from within a bucket is very beneficial. From the ground it has huge limitations though.
 
Yo TreeSquirrel,

That's the beauty of this thing. If you watch some videos of this thing on youtube, which is where i found it, you'll see the operators are not directly under the branches. The longer I extend the pole, the further away from falling branches I am. Can't get any safer and simpler than this.

Not much going on at the batch plant today, due to WV's Rain and Fog, so I have decided that I will spend the rest of my day trying to find you and hurt you.

Now that I noticed your post count it seems you created a membership to pimp this product. Very uncool.

Invest in paid advertising on the site if you have confidence in your product rather than trying to get free exposure on our message board.

Great little saw.. love mine.

Agreed. Have their place, but not the primary tool of the trade. Sorry, but I can not imagine anybody trying to do anything other than some trimming with anything 10 or more feet in the air above or beside them.. If nothing else the control and finesse just ain't there.
