Chainsaws

Chainsaws slice through logs, branches and firewood.  Petrol models offer maximum power for felling trees, while electric and battery‑powered chainsaws suit yard maintenance and pruning.  Chain brakes and low‑kickback chains improve safety.

What are chainsaws commonly used for?
Chainsaws are powerful cutting tools used for felling trees, cutting logs, trimming branches, and even shaping timber in carpentry or wood sculpting. They save time and effort compared to manual saws.

What types of chainsaws are available?

• Petrol chainsaws – powerful and suited for heavy-duty outdoor work.

• Electric chainsaws – lighter, quieter, and good for smaller jobs near a power source.

• Battery chainsaws – cordless and convenient, ideal for lighter to medium-duty tasks.

How do I keep a chainsaw safe and efficient to use?
Always keep the chain sharp and properly tensioned, use the correct chain oil, and wear protective gear (gloves, helmet, chaps, and goggles). Never operate a chainsaw without proper footing or training, and perform regular maintenance on the engine/motor.
