1.0 out of 5 stars Extreme Safety Hazard could cause injury or death, April 4, 2005

Concerned user (Arizona) - See all my reviews

This review is from: McCulloch 10-Inch 8-AMP 1.5 HP Electric Pole Saw 41BZ015Q077 (Lawn & Patio)

Purchased this product. The saw works great, This product has a weak link and could cause injury or death. While using the pole chainsaw the coupling nut on the pole cracked. The now running chain saw pole collapsed and twisted downward toward my body. I released the switch and was spared injury or death. Should you purchase this product be aware of the coupling nut on the pole and be aware it could crack and cause injury. I have contacted the manufacturer and sent photos of the defective coupling. To try and get service on this product also is a hassle. I was sent to a repair dealer Arizona Air Cooled Engines who stated he has not repaired Mcculloch product for several years because of poor working relationships. I have notified Mcculoch of this safty problem and have received no reply. Should you buy this product use EXTREME CAUTION!!!!!!!!!!

The saw worked very well. Hoewever, the second time I used it the saftey button failed to return to to off position. the result was that when i picked up the saw by the handle it started. Fortunately, the blade was not in contact with my leg but sure scared the hell out of me. I am returning the product and recommend you look elsewhere

Home Depot stocks the Remington electric pole saw, which is almost identical to the McCulloch and which I used for price/specification comparison. I found the Remington too heavy ... the McCulloch is almost 4 pounds lighter, a big difference, especially when you have the pole fully extended. They were priced pretty close, with the Remington being $10 more plus tax. Ordering the McCulloch was a breeze through Amazon.com. I chose the free shipping, and of course there was no tax. It arrived in 7 days via Fed X. Assembly wasn't too difficult ... four screws to attach the saw to the pole. The clamping mechanism at the end of the pole holds down the saw's safety button and trigger. Seems to have plenty of power. I've used it a couple of times and it works great. No problems with what I presume is a fiberglas pole ... ie, flexing, etc. No problem with the pole's locking nut. I would recommend wearing safety glasses while using it, the fully enclosed kind that keep flying chips out of your eyes. All in all, what appears to be a good tool for thinning out all those lower limbs and branches. My only complaint is that it didn't come with a sleeve to cover the saw blade, so guess I'll have to make one.
