It is shown with a pole attached, does it come off to make it more of a saw (shorter) for up close work,

One piece comes off making it approz 4 - 5 foot long. It does make it easier to use up close.

you can only take the middle part out. you can't attach only the battery to the chainsaw section. It will still be about 5 feet long. I' ve done that when I trim the lower limbs, but you can't make it only 3 feet long.

Truthfully, I don't know. I've only seen the saw blade as a replacement part, never the pole.

Sorry for the late response. The pole has the same on/off switch at the bottom. You actually plug the saw in at the top and use the controls at the bottom of the pole. It also has the same safety switch before you can turn it on.

Yes it comes with saw. You'll be impressed with this pole saw. Works great and always starts within a couple pulls.

Mine did, you will not build a deck with this saw, but for quick cuts without having to pull out the extension cord, this does the job just fine

I didn't have any problems with it when it was extended. It was very easy to use once I took the saw blade off of it. That just kept getting in my way and caught on small branches that I didn't want to cut.

It is not designed to have the cutting head removed. It might be possible to adapt it, but I would not buy it with the idea of using the pole for other purposes.

you seem to be missing a part. the saw assembly and hook should have a black plastic tailpiece attached that fits right into the pole and snaps in just like a pole extension. the screw that goes through the head base connects the tailpiece that fits right into the pole

Yes. Once you get the saw extended it becomes a little difficult to handle. If you keep the saw almost vertical it would work but then the branch might fall on you. I wouldn't let my daughters use it. Try going to Home Depot or Lowes and try one from display.

Yes I cut mine down a little as well, to make it fit. Be careful to get the length correct. If you cut it too short you are shall we say "screwed". Better to err on the long side as you can always cut off more. There is a small fudge factor involved. I used masking tape at the cut line to make sure I didn't scratch the finish, I got the brown-colored pole. Am happy with the purchase.

No, at first we thought we would have to buy a smaller than standard pole then we realized the end pole slot can be easily removed allowing a standard pole to fit. It sits in the slot with no attaching. The quality matches the custom hardware I used when building our home. Very nice!

Yes it sure does, but as others have said, the longer the pole the more unstable the saw at the end can become. Bank on the 14' and ensure you are very stable and not hanging off of a step ladder.

Yes, the ends needed to be cut to make sure it fit. Some people may have a longer pole.

It comes out from the back of the blade assembly. No directly from the back, but a little further down on the upper support pole.

No. The positioning head is pressed securely onto the wooden dowel. The pole in the photo is not completely accurate in that it is not black; it is a non-painted wooden dowel. Thank you!

No. It is a seperate piece that clips on to the pole. The wrap then sits on top of the coupler.
