The Eckman 8ft 10” Telescopic Angled Chainsaw is designed for homeowners and professionals seeking a safer, more efficient way to trim high branches from the ground. Its key benefit is the extended reach and angled bar, reducing the need for ladders and making difficult cuts accessible. A potential caveat is that electric models require a power source, limiting mobility compared to gas alternatives. This tool features a 750W motor, a 10” angled bar with a low-kickback chain, and a lightweight, adjustable telescopic shaft for comfortable use.

The 10" bar is suitable for branches generally up to 6-8 inches in diameter, depending on the type and condition of the wood.
Yes, consistent chain lubrication is essential for performance and longevity. The unit is designed to automatically oil the chain, but you must ensure the oil reservoir is filled.
The product description does not specify the length of the attached power cord. An appropriate gauge extension cord will be required, the length of which will depend on your working distance from a power source.
This pole chainsaw is designed for overhead branch cutting. It is not intended or recommended for cutting firewood or felling trees.
Always wear safety glasses, gloves, and sturdy footwear. Keep bystanders at a safe distance. Ensure the area is clear of obstructions and that you have stable footing before operating. Read the full manual for detailed safety instructions.
Chain tension should be checked regularly. The tool-less adjustment system allows for easy tightening or loosening. Refer to the user manual for specific instructions on how to adjust the chain tension correctly.
Some minor assembly may be required, primarily involving extending and securing the telescopic shaft. Ensure all parts are properly connected and locked before operation.
Ensure the chainsaw is properly plugged into a working outlet and that the extension cord is securely connected and undamaged. Check if there is a safety lock-out switch that needs to be engaged.
The chain may be dull, loose, or improperly lubricated. Check and adjust chain tension, sharpen or replace the chain, and ensure the chain oil reservoir is filled and the oiler is functioning.
Ensure the telescopic shaft is securely locked. Check for damage to the chain or bar. Make sure you are maintaining a firm grip on the non-slip handle and cutting with steady pressure.
Ensure there is no debris obstructing the shaft mechanism. Gently twist and pull or push to adjust the sections. Avoid forcing the mechanism; clean and lubricate if necessary.
Setup: Assembly typically involves extending the telescopic shaft and ensuring it is securely locked at the desired length. Connect the power cord. For safety, ensure the chain is properly tensioned and lubricated before use. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
Compatibility: This is an electric pole chainsaw and requires a standard outdoor-rated electrical outlet and an extension cord of appropriate gauge and length for the task. It is designed for cutting wood branches.
Care: After each use, disconnect from power and allow the tool to cool. Clean the bar and chain with a brush to remove sawdust and debris. Check chain tension and sharpen the chain as needed. Store in a dry, protected area. Regularly inspect the power cord for damage.
