![2.35 Horsepower! Milwaukee M18 FUEL Telescoping Pole Saw Video [3013-20]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/R2HBaFwmTsU/mqdefault.jpg)
I have most of the Greenworks 60v line. Love them! Quiet, efficient, and light! Checks every box! :)
Hey Josh! It sure made quick work of those two chores!
Have been researching pole saws, thanks for the review.
Wonderful pole saw
Josh, showing us the farm, how it is growing and doing everything environmentally friendly is so great! But please, keep these types of videos coming. Showing your subscribers all these tricks and the tools it takes to get the job done is so helpful. Awesome job man! Proud of ya and happy for you too.
💥 An 8 foot reach but add your height and what’s that, like an easy 18 foot reach!
A pole saw is coming to my channel soon!
*Keep on tractoring!*
Good video, the hard work is always cleaning up afterwards!
Great and Educational
Excellent video! That bottom cut also prevents damage to the tree. The bottom cut prevents the bark from being ripped off the tree when the top cut cuts off the limb. Ripping off bark can severely injure a tree or even kill it. This is especially important on trees that are visible like your willow oak, a.k.a specimen trees.
Thanks, Josh 👍 I have a 60V Dewalt pole saw and it works great too!
That is what I was going to ask is what you will do with all the cut-down brush and tree limbs but placing it back in the forest for wildlife habitat is so awesome! thanks for throwing that in at the end of the video. Great Stewardship of the land man! Have a great week!
Been looking at getting one of these things! Thanks Josh!
One thought about the bar tightener, make sure to loosen before you put it away. The least bit of moisture between the nut and the bar can cause it to rust together. The problem lies with the convenient plastic housing that holds the nut. It’s impossible to get it apart without breaking it after it is seized with rust.
never had that happen my brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer the good thing is, if does happen they make replacements so it’s an easy fix but a slight pain in the neck.
With the new chain, they all stretch in the first few cuts as they bed in. I'd say thats why "you lost the chain". A simple re adjust , and you're all good to go. I love watching your videos, Josh.
yessir for sure....it's always a little limb that grabs your chain in situations like this...even happens on my big saws
I got the DeWalt 24v 13' reach, goes together fast with no tools. I cut up a large dogwood tree that split, topped it and took most of it down with the pole saw then finished it off with the chainsaw. A 4AH battery made over 30 cuts and had 2 bars left. They are only $150 tool only at most places. I went with the DeWalt tool family in 24 v a long time ago so now I just do tool only to save $.
Thanks for the video Josh, saved me doing the research! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It made me smile to hear you say with energy prices soaring uou switch to electric. Why not use a pole handsaw pruner no fuel at all
you might want to install an inverter in your side by side.
to charge your battery tools ? 🤠
Good tool.
Very cool tool Josh. Appreciate you sharing my friend! Wooooo!
You bet!
El Toro is the best and that’s no bull.Wooooo
I Enjoy all your videos! I have a mini ranch 12 acres that is a first generation ranch, thank you for all your information you share!!
Dual box opening videos lol love the channel anyway
LOL! I just bought a Stihl pole saw a couple months ago. Hope I can get fuel for it by winter.. 🥺
Hi.... Josh nice to see you, thank you for showing your video homestead chickens duck farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣🐥🐕🐈🐐🐄🐖🐝🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍
You’re awesome video Josh very cool
Hey Josh good luck with your pole saw and I am happy that you made this video because this will help people out who don't know how to cut the branch because I do know I have learned this from ask this old House years ago like you said an inch or two from the tree that way it re heels
Beautiful
Great video Josh 🇺🇲 I really enjoyed this video WOOOOOO 🇺🇲
Get the Milwaukee weed wacker that you can buy a attachment pole saw. Milwaukee is a no brainer bc you can use the batteries for all your tools
I find the "multi tool" heads simply don't last on the farm
Nice video josh and awesome little pole saw. Now to clean up all that brush and really get to sweating.
We have an Ego Powerplus pole saw. It’s a great tool for cutting branches. Before this we had an Aldi pole saw. I’m a bit embarrassed to say this but the cheap Aldi chainsaw was my first chainsaw. It worked well till I busted it.
Ego v/s Toro...which brand has been around for decades? No arguing with the Toro quality for sure
have a toro push mower,bought it at a lawn sale,luv it
electric push mower vid coming soon!!
I always thought the undercut was toward the tree from the overcut so that the bark could not peel off the tree and create damage. I observed your method as reversed.
I was taught the same. First cut from the bottom up, second top down further out from the trunk, third to remove the stub leaving the bark collar so the cut will heal.
Cut under then cut up top closer to the tree...either way the limb leaps off the branch and doesn't peel
The bottom of a branch is in compression aka that is where the bind is due to the weigh of the branch causing it to droop. It'll pinch the saw if you do too much of an undercut, so limit how deep you try to go on that undercut. The purpose of the undercut is to prevent slabbing or tearing of the bark. The finishing cut on top is on the tension side of the branch and will naturally open up as the cut is made and the branch droops due to the partial cut. The 3rd cut at the collar of the branch / trunk then eliminates the stob and because it is so short, there effectively is no bind / pinching and no tendency for the bark to tear away.
Yes, I think battery power is the way to go for garden tools, less fuel spillage and maintenance. I would definitely stick to one brand though because batteries are expensive and have a finite life, you don't need to have a unique dedicated battery for every single tool when a couple of big batteries are going to run every tool in a workshop.
I remember you using a vertical brush hog a while back for the fence line, maybe that was on hire?
you mean the lane shark I'm guessing...again everything can't be done from the tractor seat my brotha
Nothing like slinging poison ivy oil all over, lol. Hope ya cleaned the head so it doesn't come back later...
Up north, I've normally left a 4-6" stub, then come back a few years later to trim them closer. It keeps the"wound" away from the tree & rarely sprouts a new branch. Lol, all sorts of opinions. Enjoy the new toy, they are handy. I just haul a small generator & cord, because the electric one i've got has worked well for a couple of decades! Battery is finally better, but.... Thanx !
lol...uh that's why I'm cutting it 8 feet from my body buddy...it's not slinging anything on me
👍
WooooooooooooHeeeeeeeeeeeeHeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!Alright!!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I like Milwaukee cordless products. Also I didn't think you were supposed to cut oak trees this time of year. Increases the chance of oak wilt and insect damage.
Your farm is looking good. I would like to get an electric saw like that. I have some fence lines that look like the one you demo. I will be trying out the Ryobi saw, because I already have Ryobi battery packs. Nothing worse than having multi battery tools around. Thanks for the video, farmer rod
once you try these TORO products...with the 60v you'll toss that Ryobi in the trash in my opinion...had some Ryobi tools....my batteries didn't last...hope you have better luck with yours brotha
I have the Harbor Freight electric pole saw, it works great. Would I go cordless, sure, but I'd have to get the pole saw attachment for my Dewalt 60V trimmer...that's been a great investment as well, tons of power even on the low setting, and accepts attachments which is why I got it. It has plenty of power to run my tiller attachment. So, I have been thinking of picking up the pole saw attachment and extension pole. However, I have no complaints at all about my Harbor Freight pole saw, I have used it a lot on the property, its limitations of course is the cord.
yep....corded won't work for most folks
Hey Boss, having some experience tree trimming, I always trimmed as close as possible to the trunk, heals over better, reduces the sprouting. Maybe your way is better to leave a 1" nub, I dunno. I sure like that pole saw.
Good review, but where you save on gas, the batteries die and cost a fortune, especially if the supply lines shut down
Nothing on this earth is 100% perfect forever my friend
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Your right
I noticed you have one of the green net fly traps, how do you like it and dose it work like they show in the adds ? The poll saw I like it
Let me know how long you get out of the battery before they start to not hold as good of a charge, for quite as long as when they were brand new.
Curious about battery life over time, they aren't inexpensive either, unfortunately !
By the way, FYI,. TORO makes a sife by side UTV as well !
A part of their commercial outdoor power equipment line !
had mutiple toro 60v products for several years...no issues to date
Hi Josh. I was wondering, how far into the woods there does your property line go?
I think the captive internal power cord is just asking for trouble... other tool brands use handle segments with sockets, so you can use the full length or even shorten the tool. I would be concerned this one would chafe and faill unless you keep it assembled for transport.
Hmmm...interesting perspective. Toro stands by their products so I'd say this would never be an issue
was hear
Nope, not on Amazon! Just checked. ha ha
yep...gotta hit up your local toro dealer my friend
Have one, like it. Chain needs frequent attention as it gets hotter. Hard to do good cuts at the top of reach. Really beyond reach. Need to figure how to mount it on my cab tractor.
not sure how a pole saw chain would get hot....not cutting huge branches my brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer take your gloves off and touch it. It doesn't take much. The chain always gets longer in use and shrinks back later. Not talking red hot just warmer. Most chain saw manuals mention this and that is why they have easy tool less adjustments on most of them now. Chains don't stretch since that is a permanent change, they expand with the heat from use. Most of the heat is from the bar and sprocket not the tree. Don't oil your chain and your bar will overheat and probably turn blue.
Good day Josh,
I haven’t seen the red Toyota in a while. Did you end up selling it?
How long can you cut before the battery needs charging?
depends on the use...limb size, how big of a job, continuous running or on and off...I used this for a good hour and no battery issues at all. Those 60v batteries are awesome!
😎😎😎😎👍
What is the cost?
google my friend....this one is around $299 but prices in this economy are up and down for sure
Cost of fuel going up, time to think about going all electric... just like planned.
this too shall pass..but I do find battery powered hand tools to be very handy...I don't have to haul around gas
Jot I hate being mean. Bt I would rather see ikini model selling it.
yep...sorry I'm not wearing a bikini buddy lol
They need to make a 9 foot model cause I’m about a foot shorter than you! why did u edit the part out where u was cussing when the chain came off 😂?
