I have the exact same thing. It was very useful, but you better have
strong arms, cause it will take a toll on them trying to hold the

15'
pole with the saw at the end.
Overall though, it does help.



Up in the cold white north we really have to coax our trees to grow.
I have only a mental visualization of the tool. Operating a 15 foot
powered cutting tool at the end of a pole seems a case where the user
will have to take the usual safety precautions of wearing a hard hat
and suitable goggles. Perhaps some sort of thick long sleeved jacket.
To assist holding the tool I imagine a flagstaff harness like the

one
a marcher uses in a parade.


I have one of those harnesses laying around and I just knew there was
something I could use it for so I never threw it out. I owe you a
beer.

thanks!
