@@samzam7890 Because they don't cut well. You have to almost constantly, adjust the chain. It stretches like a rubber band. All chains stretch, doesn't matter what it's on. I have never seen one stretch so badly, or fast. It worked pretty well for about a year. Now I am constantly messing with the chain. This is something the wife operates, and I will admit it's operator error to a certain degree. She lets the chain get to loose and throws it. But for the amount of cuts made, you have to adjust the chain more than daily. I also have a Stihl Pro grade saw here. I tension that chain maybe one time a year. I don't cut down trees for a living. These saws are used to maintain a very wooded 5 acre lot.
this chainsaw is a must have for exactly what this guy is using it for . same story here . a storm tore down a few trees and tons of branches . walmart sent me this chainsaw for free ( i guess by accident ) along with a few things that i had ordered online. i kept it and i never got billed . the very next week , a huge storm destroyed a couple of my trees . THIS WAS MEANT TO BE . 😂 .... this saw worked perfect . the battery lasted all day until the work was done . i was blown away by a battery chainsaw ! BTW, it came with the 40 v battery too .
Big Work Done With 20 yr old ms 290 Stihl, But Started To Be Real Hard To Start! Choke B.S Took it apart everything checked out. Well Anyway Got This Today UPS. Fast Getting here. Put Oil In And Cut A Pine Branch That Fell Last Storm. Cut Great So Far, Just Testing It Today. 4 Branches about 4in Dia. Cut Great!. Glad I Got Most Of The Acre Done With ms290 BUT This Is So Easy , Chain Oil And Go!!! If I have Problems Will Check Back ! Peace ;-))
That’s what I always hated about gas chainsaws the high maintenance battery powered chainsaws are so much easier and actually cheaper for the most part.
Nice. Out of all my battery tools I think I use the leaf blower the most. I even blew leaves off the roof of my house and the dust out of my PC (took it out side lol)
I purchased one of these, Wouldn't oil the chain. Pressurized the oil tank and one drop came out. Never cut a piece of wood with it. Sent it back. Real Disappointed.
Am I doing something wrong? When I let my 40v chainsaw sit for at least 2months, not in use the chain oil will leak out and I have a nice puddle of oil where it was sitting. I hope there's nothing wrong with it?
Sounds like the chain tension is too tight If you don’t have other electric tools from that company you have to buy a battery so right there the price jumps up!
Fuel isn’t cheap either though and it depends on how expensive the battery is I bought an extra one for mine and it was about $50.00 the 80v batteries are more expensive a lot of them are over a $100.00
It’s the same if you don’t have gas or oil I use to be skeptical of electric tools but after seeing how much they’ve advanced compared to what they use to be changed my view completely it is really nice not having all the high maintenance like you do with a gas chainsaw and if you leave a gas saw sit for a long time the saw can start degrading with a electric saw that’s not the case.
*push the primer 6 times and let it rip I like the saw for the price👀 **allabout.wiki/Included** used maybe 10 tanks of fuel, 6 loads of hard wood and am very pleased with it. some will say its under powered for a 20" but I like it better then a 18". I have a 18" also which is great also just like the extra 2" inches. the saw is very light also which is nice. Huskavarna owns Greenworks so I am sure it will last. its not a sthl but still love it! I have seen some bad reviews on the saw but do not agree with them. some people told me not to waste my money but have since changed there mind. just have some common sense and cut some wood!*
