Can anyone recommend a trimmer with a reach pole to trim a few small trees?

What I have used in the past is a suitable sized pruning saw attached with some heavy duty cable ties and tape to a extendable decorators pole.
Do the undercut first then the downcut from the side.
Eye protection and a hard hat are sensible to use while doing this.0 -
If you dont want to make your own lash up:-recommend you use these, not cheap but top quality and much easier to handle than the mini electric chainsaw on the end of a pole type you can also buy. https://www.worldofwolf.co.uk/search/Pruning Saw?gclid=CjwKCAjwrpOiBhBVEiwA_473dMO8SGLAQIuuNay7i6Ru4tq4IEZ5UK_gOThWblQQCwkVcwcWOWcPuRoC7KwQAvD_BwE0

I've got the Wolf pro pruning saw and 4 metre extending pole. Very effective, and the saw itself is incredibly sharp.
