Benefits
- Tackle high branches safely from the ground by turning your Makita couple shaft power head into a 7‑foot pole saw, reducing the need for ladders or climbing.
- Make cleaner, faster cuts with the 10" reversible sprocket nose bar and matched 3/8" low‑profile chain, helping trees heal better and improving overall job quality.
- Work longer with less fatigue thanks to the lightweight, fixed‑length shaft and steel drive shaft that cuts vibration while still delivering strong cutting power.
- Minimize downtime using the translucent oil tank and automatic chain lubrication, which make it easy to check levels and keep the chain properly oiled with minimal user input.
- Speed up maintenance with a single stud chain retention system and captured bar nut so bar and chain adjustments or swaps are quick and tool-friendly on the job.
- Improve site cleanup efficiency using the built‑in branch hook to pull down trimmed limbs, keeping workflows smooth when pruning dense canopies.
- Maximize your investment in Makita’s split‑shaft platform by adding a professional‑grade EY402MP pole chain saw attachment instead of buying a dedicated pole saw.
- Deliver professional results to customers with a setup that’s purpose‑built for regular landscape maintenance, orchard care and property management.
