• When selecting a pole saw, it’s important to consider what types of trees you are trimming, and how often you will be using a pole saw.  When purchasing a pole saw you should also consider portability and weight. 
• If you must transport a pole saw in a vehicle, be sure it isn’t too long.  
• Using a pole saw isn’t easy, so look for a saw that will reach the heights needed, and is lightweight but still durable. 
• It is very important to wear the proper protective apparel when using a pole saw.  Goggles, helmet, gloves, hearing protection, closed toe shoes or boots and proper footwear.
• A manual pole saw has a lot of teeth, and a hook at the end of the pole saw blade. The saw blade does not come out of the cut during the trimming process.  This type of pole saw has extending, telescoping handles, usually from 8 to 18 feet.  
• Stihl manual pole saws are crafted with long life, high-carbon tool steel blades that can be sharpened or replaced.  These pole saws are designed with strong, lightweight handles to reach inaccessible branches and cut them down to size!

• All powered pole saws, battery or gasoline, have a bar and chain, like a chainsaw to make the cuts.  This type of pole saw has a bar and chain oil reservoir to keep the bar and chain lubricated properly.  It is imperative to use the correct bar and chain oil on this type of pole saw.
• Battery-powered pole saws are quiet and most are lightweight, depending on the battery size.  Some battery-powered pole saws have fixed handle lengths, and some have telescoping handles that can reach extended heights.  
• When choosing a battery-powered pole saw, it is very important to consider how much cutting you will have to determine if the battery’s run time will accommodate your job.  If it will not, you may need to purchase or have extra batteries on hand to be sure you can finish the job.
• Weight is also a key factor when determining which battery-powered pole saw to purchase.  Large batteries can be very heavy. When using this type of pole saw, consider the angle at which you are using the tool and how heavy the pole saw is to avoid injury.  Some commercial battery-powered pole saws have battery systems that are worn on a belt.  This type of commercial pole saw is lighter.  
• When overgrown branches loom overhead, reach for a pole saw!  There is unlimited power when using a gasoline powered pole saw.  You will never run out of “juice” unless you run out of gas!  
• A gasoline powered pole saw can come in a variety of lengths.  Some pole saws are fixed length,  while others have telescoping shafts reaching up to 16 feet.

Plus these pole saws are fuel-efficient and feature low-emission engines so less re-fueling and more work gets done.
• Pole saw bar and chain lengths vary from 10 to 14 inches, and they also use different pitch chains.  When purchasing a replacement bar and/or chain for your pole saw, be sure to know exactly what you need.  
• A gasoline-powered pole saw requires the user to mix gas and oil together, which is known as a two-cycle engine.  It is recommended that you use high quality two-cycle oil and ethanol free gasoline in your pole saw.
• If you choose to purchase, or already have a Stihl Kombi, have no fear!  There is a pole saw attachment for your Stihl Kombi.  The Stihl Kombi pole saw attachments are available in two sizes, 8 inch or 10 inch, and there is also a 36” extension bar to extend the reach of the Stihl Kombi pole saw.  Weight is a factor here, as there is a fiberglass, lightweight extension, or a heavier metal extension.  

No matter which type of pole saw you need, the experts at Do-Cut can help you choose the one.  Do-Cut Sales & Service not only has pole saws, but we carry replacement parts, and can service your pole saw if and when the need arises. 

Best practices for storing a pole saw after use is to run the gasoline engine out of gas, or use fill the tank with pre-mixed, ethanol free fuel. Keep debris and sawdust away from the bar and chain oil fill cap too.  This will eliminate any debris from entering the tank and contaminating or hindering the oiler.  Be sure the chain on your pole saw is nice and sharp, and you are using proper trimming techniques!
