Max. pole saw cutting height
The maximum height that the pole saw (see "Type") can reach while standing on the ground, without the use of ladders or other attachments.
This parameter is usually indicated by manufacturers according to the following principle: “the length of the rod plus the height of a person with arms raised” (usually 2–2.5 m is taken for a person’s height). When choosing according to cutting heights, note that more “long-range” tools are usually heavier, bulkier and more expensive than relatively short counterparts. So the headroom does not hurt, but it should not be too large.
It is also worth noting that the cutting height is indicated relatively rarely — mainly in the largest and longest tools, where this figure is 3 m or more. In shorter models, the range can be derived using the already mentioned formula "length plus height of the user with arms raised."
Detachable blade
The presence
of a removable blade(blades) in the design of the tool. This feature provides additional convenience and savings. First, the blade is usually more convenient to sharpen and clean by removing it from the tool; secondly, a damaged blade can be replaced with a new one purchased separately — this is cheaper than purchasing a whole new tool.
