Can this saw be detached from pole and used as stand alone chain saw?

Haven't tried it but don't see how it can be since the trigger is at the end of the handle. You can collapse the handle making it much easier to handle but I can't see how you could detach the handle altogether.

From what I read in the instructions, no you cannot use it as a stand alone. While I was assembling the pole saw I looked to see if it would detach from the pole. I could not disassemble it.

I do not see why not, however you will have to fashion a way to fasten it to a pole since it was not design for that but is light enough to be able to do it. Rmember that you will be dealing with a running chain saw and you better be sure that is well attached to your pole.

From the tone of your question.. I think you could handle a chain saw..! I love your spunk! You can do it. The line it comes with is average. An upgraded line and this product will work well for you. I really like this tool. I also have the cordless. Go for the cord..!

I have not done that but believe that you could if you found a blade that would fit. The saw is fairly heavy and awkward and quite powerfull. My concern would be binding the saw holding it up horizontally. I would use a fence fastened to the wall to rest the saw on in order to maintain control of the travel and reduce the possibility of binding causing kick back. Have a helper.

Frank, I suppose you could, but you would have less control of your pruner to cut any branche's or limb's so high up. If your saw blade get's stuck, how do you remove it ...!? I say three (3) pole's is the limit to avoid trouble...

The saw/stand in the stow (upright) position is just under 4' tall. As far as removing the saw from the stand I don't see why you would want to. It's not made to quickly assemble/disassemble the two units. However, it can be done. Just follow assembly in reverse. You would have to flip the entire unit over so that the table is on a non-marring surface to remove the bolts to remove the stand. Again, I don't why you would want to remove it. It is very easy change it from stow to working position and visa versa. Hope this helps!

Unfortunately you can't. I imagine you could cut the metal poles on your own, but I would look for a rack that would just come that way.

Yes you can but try first wash the dirt and gravel from the area you are going to cut or it will dull the chain and won't do the job. I cut a lot of trees that size. Just take your time a it is a lightweight saw but will do the job. Good luck, Ed

No. This is for small things like phones, lap tops, lamps and such. Your chain saw would drain it very quickly.

I wouldn't even think of trying that with this particular saw. it is neither stable nor strong enough and the quality necessary to do that is just not there in this saw

Call the company. They actually make a special chain for this saw. I found that out the hard way.

It's not made for that application, so I wouldn't try it. Might work for a while, but I imagine you'd ruin the saw pretty quickly with cement dust and such.

Chain saw by itself or on pole. The second section of the pole collapses almost completely inside the first section. Frankly, I wish I could reach higher.

Probably could, but don't recommend it. A corded saw with a metal guard is better due to high heat when cutting the metal (might melt a plastic guard). The battery operated is handy but not for heavier use.

the saw yes, but the blade that comes with it is a gapless blade with a rather rough diamond embedding. with the proper blade it should work for your task

I used this in my old house and don't remember having the chain hanging down, so I think the answer is yes you can remove it

If the limb it recently fallen and not totally dried out -- yes it can, just be patient and expect some feedback from the chain due to it's slow run speed. Just as a reminder, be sure to oil the chain before cutting and maybe another time during the cut. This saw does not have an automatic oiler - use 30 weight automotive oil and not bar/chain oil.
