Impressive! But leaks like crazy...
3 Stars
Impressive! But leaks like crazy...
Wasn't too sure how this would perform. I'm building a mountain bike trail which requires cutting line through a very thick and dense section of nearby woods. Gas chainsaws are handy, but man what a hassle! I bought the lightest-weight version of this saw, 12" bar, to save on weight and bulk.Today was my first use of the unit. I was impressed! I worked my way along about a mile of trail over the span of several hours. Lots of cuts from everything to tree limb trimming, lots of 2-4" trees, and numerous deadfall logs (about 6" was the largest). It cuts slower than a gas-powered saw, but it sends out big chunks of wood and does the job.Some caveats. I used my existing weed trimmer 4.0 AH battery instead of the 2AH that comes with the unit. I didn't think the bigger capacity battery would even fit, but it does. I had the second one as a backup. After I ran out of bar oil, the 4.0 battery was at 50% charge. So I guess a 2.0 battery and the bar oil tank would run out about the same time. One thing I didn't like was the much touted see-through bar oil window didn't work for me. You can't see the level through the plastic! Too opaque. Even in direct sun. So be careful filling because it's easy to overflow the tank if you don't stop and check. I'll be carrying a small container of bar oil into the wood so I can keep cutting...Though the unit is very light weight, I fashioned a strap so I could just throw it over my shoulder hiking between jobs on the trail. Probably carry a spare chain too because we tend to get into the dirt a lot when trail building.I will likely add to and update this review as the spring season comes. This little champ will be getting a lot of use...until the ticks come out.UPDATE 3/21/19: Have used the heck out of this saw clearing out mountain bike trails. The only gripe now is how much oil it leaks IN USE. I think someone said the instruction manual states this, but after a few hours in the woods, my pants and shirt are COVERED with bar oil just from walking with the saw. Dropped to three stars...
