Remington Tools 10 in. Electric Pole-Mounted Chainsaw —

I needed a pole chain saw to do the occasional trimming around the yard (about seven large trees). I wasn't very interested in the maintenance of a gas-powered chain saw (I have enough spark plugs and oil changes to do as it is), and I already had a trimmer, so wasn't interested in purchasing a new trimmer just to get the benefit of a chain saw attachment. I learned of this saw from a review of one of the gas-powered pole chain saws. I purchased it because it looked like it met the need, and thought it was a good price. One of the things I like about it is that the pole is basically just a support w/ an extension cord inside. The switch in the handle turns on/off the power to the cable. At the end is a chain saw that can be used independently of the pole. This is a great feature. I like this much better than the pole chain saws that have the motor at the base, a spinning axel in the pole, and the blade at the end. I have found the 10" blade to be the right size for everything I've cut so far. Any limb or tree requiring a blade bigger than that probably requires a heftier chainsaw anyway. My Dad has been using gas powered chain saws forever, but he has recently had health issues which has limited how long he can do outdoor work. We had downed-limbs from a recent storm at his place to deal with, and he found this chain saw to be of the right size and weight to allow him to work much much longer than if he were to use one of his gas-powered chain saws. Maintenance is easy. Because I hang the chain saw on the wall in my garage, the oil can drip from saw. Therefore, I pour out the oil when I'm not using the chain saw into another container for future use.

This electric pole-mounted chainsaw is actually two saws in one - it can be used as a pole saw or as a handheld electric chainsaw. To convert it to a handheld chainsaw, simply detach the saw from the removable, adjustable fiberglass pole. Trigger lockout prevents accidental starting.
