David, did ya' dent it ? I was cutting on a large ash tree a few years ago. As Murphy would have it... the limb I was cutting ( I did have it safety roped ) fell at an awkward angle and hit the fiberglass ladder I was on. Sure 'nuff, it cracked the side rail. I learned ! Be safe my buddy . J K
James, It hit the bumper and put just a small dent, nothing major. Seams like any time your on a ladder cutting branches it's going to be a bad day. My truck is 11 years old with 180k miles and not getting the white glove treatment it use to get...
Maybe a couple of times but not a problem to get it back on. I did destroy this a few months ago. Dropped it from 50 feet when a branch almost wiped me out of my lift. I will have to replace it... Thanks!
Looking to possibly buy soon. Thanks for the review.
Great quick review, and glad you included the "stupid things" (i.e. all the stuff I would have done) section too!
I can stupid things videos ALL day... :)
Is the shaft length adjustable? That is, can it be adjusted to be longer or shorter?
What is the thickest hardwood you can cut effectively?
I have cut limbs up to 5 inches in diameter with little problem. Best suited for 2-3 inch limbs I think... Thanks!
Can this pole saw operate fully-retracted, partially-extended, as well as fully-extended? Or only with the handle fully extended?
I think only fully extended
I already have a GreenWorks trimmer. Can I just buy the saw attachment?
I believe you can get the saw without the battery for less cash. Thanks!
Have you used it to cut brush and small trees off at or near the ground?
I have not used it in that way.

Has your chain come off any? Is it hard to get the chain back on?

@@HomesteadEngineering Wow. Let us know what you replace it with.
Is the old tank translucent?
?
The "stupid things" section was too short. We need to see more stupid things.
I can all day...:)
