Small saw long bar

[AHPP]

I diced up a pile of branches with a pole saw once. Rested the head on top of a chicken coop, upside down so pulling chain on top, my mother on the throttle, me feeding the logs. Actually worked really well.

When cutting stems on ground standing straight up with a long bar won't it be hard to avoid dirt with the chain as you cutting logs with bar tip is held at a 45 degree angle

 

I normally crouch down so bar is cutting more lvl with ground then flip logs over for that last bit.

 

But recall seeing yanks on youtube who use say 24" - 30" bars or whatever  ringing up pretty small diameter stems on the grounnd with the tip of long bar and not flipping logs but they  probably had a brash mat underneath.

 

 

 

 

 

 

That is where I saw it. It’s 12 inch limbs mainly that I asking for. Obviously the bigger stuff gets done kneeling with as short a bar as I can get away with.

i suffer from old age and back problems so even on my 560 im running a 26 inch bar and skip tooth chain so i have less bending . as long as your chain is kept  nice and sharp and you dont try to rush its been fine .
