Ok so I got it disassembled. Pretty easy when using your instructions. But I can see that even though the cross section is the same in the entire lenght of the pole the threaded holes is only about an inch deep and stops where a reces is cut into the cross section Login to view image So in order to cut down the lenght of it new holes will have to be drilled and threaded at the place where it is cut. This would require some drilling equipment that I do not have, so I guess this will not be the way to go. The reason for investegating this option was that I have the stand and might as well use it if possible. However I might look into other placement options, and/or maybe the smaller BC6-23 as an option

That's a shame.  But a good exercise in Beovision stand disassembly! How about trying to find a BV6-26 table stand, Type Number 4092? That's significantly shorter.
