Bought one a few weeks ago and yes ….. No real assembly instructions. I was going to let it sit until I had the mental energy to “figure it out”. Came across this video and it made assembly as simple as described. Thank you!!!!!
I got one of these and it honestly worked great to cut down a small tree in my yard and cut it up for firewood. Living in a suburb this is probably as much chainsaw as I need.
Had bunch of skinny trees come down in my yard and next door. The people there who have a chainsaw wont cut down the branches, so i need to do it so i can cut my grass again. I saw this tool on Temu, but came looking for reviews. Thanks for a thorough review and demonstration. I feel confident to purchase this and use it.
@@ManCaverTools I just got my device, I got a 6 INCH blade, and I put it together this morning. Tested on a 3 inch thick tree branch that had come down on some bushes and blocking the back porch. I won't be able to finish it off till after work but it sure did cut through quite easily. After that one cut the blade was noticeably slack. Like VERY slack, so I see I'm gonna have to stop and tighten this thing between each use, which seems reasonable for a chainsaw anyway. I've seen men of years, claiming to be handy, have stupid interactions with chain saws skipping the blade cuz they didn't bother to check between cuts. But what does a young person know of these things!? HA, we know enough to get a tool the size we can handle and to pay attention to it. I think You didn't mention that if you don't hold the devices handle when you first start, that it will spin on the drill end like a carnival ride. I already knew that but your transition to the business part of the work was so smooth, i may have missed. This thing is going to be a work and gear saver. I cant keep using my lopers on some of these volunteer saplings that keep popping up, and after the tornado this summer I've got broken branches threatening everywhere. I can finally get some of these larger leg sized logs into some sorta reasonable chunks. Edited to Add: My only complaint is that the shaft for the driver is qute short. there is some sort of plastic cover that I assume is supposed to fit over the tip of the drill but in both of my DrillMaster drills it just keeps the shaft from inserting completely so it leaves about a third of the shaft outside the bit teeth. I am Seriously considering dremmeling off these "guards so the shaft inserts more completly. It may even cut down on the vibration I'm experiencing, becuas it would be a damn shame for this thing to vibrate it's way OUT of the drill teeth. Perhaps I'll buy a cheaper on from Temu to experiment on. I'm still within my return window for Amazon. Thanks for this very handy, educational, and instructional Video, it helped tremendously, and was the spark that led me to push that buy button. Too bad you don't have sponsorship or amazon kick backs!
Awesome video! I started tinkering with this purchase, but since it didn’t have directions, this video really helped! Thank you!! Very nice to have a video regarding such a random tool that I got off Temu!
Thanks for the video. I saw this on Temu for $10.98 and had to have it. The hand gard is supposed to just be for dust and/or wood chips. My handle worked on all 3 spots.
Im in the UK and just bought the Temu one yesterday also for £9.50, Im waiting for it to arrive, and I was worried it would be useless - My drill is a 21-volt model, so Im hoping it will work with that .. seeing this video it's making me excited what it can do.. I didn't want to buy a full-sized chainsaw as Im a little nervous of them lol. But this will be perfect for what I want it for in the garden. Thank you from England :-)
Many thanks. I had a piece left over and thanks to this vid, i was able to assemble the thing correctly. I would take issue with your statement of how easy it was to put together - mine came with no instructions.
I just got this. The handle does screw on to any of the three positions - the top or bottom and one of the two sides. It tightens up fine for me. Maybe yours is defective? The guard does work if you put the guard and handle on the bottom. They could rethink all of that. I'm with you on that. Should have the guard available for any position the handle resides.
@@ManCaverTools Thx for showing the assembly. I got it together OK and went to try it out. At first it seemed to cut OK but now it won't cut anything. I tried switching the chain thinking I may have installed it incorrectly. No help. I put a very light shaver oil on the blade. No help. Any ideas? I was so excited seeing how awesome it did on yours. I'm using an 18V Rigid impact driver and drill driver to power it. The impact driver has 700 PSI torque.
@@freemanpense2782 Chainsaw chains always get dull, you need to sharpen them or they become much harder to cut with. A sharpened chain can make a huge difference - sometimes from struggling to cut at all, to not needing any pressure at all and it basically pulling itself into the wood. Dirty/sandy wood, scraping rocks etc can dull the chain a lot faster.
i have a giant bush in my back yard that has turned into a weird small tree. my cordless saw zaw would take for ever and assumed i would have to get some kind of chain saw. this little tool might be perfect for that job and its not expensive.
mine had a groove the size of the blade. It was very quiet when it started, only the sound of the drill and got more vibrational as it cut through, but that was because the chain was getting slack. I think it just vibrates out of torque but then I have seen full size saws do that but maybe not so quickly. I had the screwdriver in my pocket , so I can remind myselfe to tighten it after each cut and it should be find. I hope you have a better future experience with your tool. Mine may be a different brand than yours because my handle fit better than ManCaver's did in all the positions.
Got mine last Friday. No mention of lubricant is made. I put chainsaw & bar lube on & trimmed a few tiny twigs. Is lube needed? may it make the thing last a bit longer or will it hurt? Thanks, Cliff
I love to tinker too but I could not get that screw at the top to tighten for anything. I'll have to try again tomorrow. Got so frustrated. I just threw everything in a plastic bag.
Got this on temu for $11 and was pleasantly surprised how well it works. Only use it to cut small branches in my backyard though. May I ask what sawhorse you were using and where to buy it? Thanks.
Can you also compare the chainsaw with the angle grinder attachment? What features to look for when buying one on AMZ since there are so many with different price ranges. TIA
Can you show how the oiler works please? You missed that. People may think you can run without an oiler and be confused when the saw burns out within a short period.
@@ManCaverTools Ah.. manual oilers. Thanks no. Lost interest in it now. Once the thing gets a bit of sawdust and other gruff in it, it'll soak up a lot of the lube and wear very quickly. Possibly I have a commercial big-saw mindset but I like it well lubed. Hmm. Would be great if it had an oiler.😁 Thanks for clearing that up.
@@jonasjonaitis2949 yeah..... I just spray some liquid wrench on it occasionally. to reduce wear and tear on the bar. It's not high rpm like a chainsaw so it doesn't get hot much.
The only *catch w/ this adapter is your drill has to be pretty strong .. I tried it w/ a 12V drill that I had laying around and the RPM wasn't fast enough .. the chainsaw teeth would just get caught in the wood.
I bought one and it came in today, i do t know why i did but for $20 sure why not. I wont likely grab it over my carbide pruning diablo recip blade but maybe ill use it for something
Yes constant lubrication is essential for a chainsaw, they normally run through an oil lubricating reservoir.. I can see this working for not long before it becomes destroyed by the sheer heat being generated by it not having permanent lubrication.. But it's cheap and might last a season if not used to much and kept well lubricated.. Wd40 to lubricate something like a chainsaw??? How bizarre
I did notice that you had lots of flex between the drill chuck and the attachment when going one handed. A brace may help cure that issue. It's not a bad idea. It just needs some tweaks. On another note, did you make a video on fixing your portable Ryobi fan yet? My new ones are doing the same thing where the old ones still are going strong. Thanks!
Update: My tension screw dug into the carbon, or more like plastic body rendering this product useless. It's just getting loose like a drunk new years party. Any suggestions? Needs a steel cast for the body, or unless I find a sleeve as a saver for the tension screw's placement it's a cute toy to display for a chucky doll.
@@ManCaverTools Okay cause I was wondering what to possibly use that can take heat. It seems like it is a better alternative to a sawsall. Because at times the vibration is to much
That is awesome!!! I was considering getting a small chainsaws for limbs (it's a bit annoying using my Sawzall for everything) this seems perfect for my needs!
This is SO much better than a sawzall IMO. the vibration seems a lot less , I guess cuz the vibration is all one directional instead of back and forth.
@@themonkeyz I finally figured it out then the thing broke because it's made of plastic. So I might keep the parts and make my own out of some kind of metal.
Mine arrived today. I used your video to assemble it. Alas mine doesn't cut. I've tried to cut a 2 inch wood square - I might as well use my hacksaw. That'd be faster. So I wouldn't recommend it at all.
I do agree on not getting one of these to replace a chainsaw. I suggest to get a real chainsaw instead. this is good for a small task hear and there but id still get a chainsaw
So I bought one of these, it looks just like the one in this video and went together the same way. However, I tried cutting through a 2" limb with it and about halfway through the chain broke. It lasted literally about 1 minute of use. What a POS.
I ordered a replacement chain, should be here any day now. I don't know if it will be stronger or not. Hoping to get at least 2 mins of cutting time which would be 100% better than the last one.
$7 when I ordered it from china, thank goodness for your assembly instructions
Alright. Let’s hook this dude up to a high torque drill and test it against the other baby chainsaws
Fantastic idea!
Thank you! just bought one of these for cutting small saplings in the back yard but honestly had low expectations. I'm excited to try it out now.
How was it??

I got the exact same one from Temu for CAN$5.50 and it works great. The only thing you need to make sure is to use a powerful driller.
Without proper lubrication, for how long it going to last ?
The same unit I have explained concisely. Well done and helpful video. Thanks.

Thanks man! I just got mine off Temu for 11.50. It doesn't go very fast though. I couldn't figure it out for the life of me! Thanks!
Would it work better on an impact driver given the force is from the hammering twisting motion?
you will beed an adaptor for an impact driver, this is bigger than a 1/4 HEX

I kinda wish I had bought it from Temu to save a few bucks.
There are lots of saw drill but which brand is it or can you share the link the one that you tested?

you are welcome

Does it stay in the chuck since you didn’t show attachment to the drill.
Just put mine together, I got mine for $6.74 shipped. I thought I had nothing to lose, but thx for the video, like you mentioned no directions.
Had no idea they made attachments like this... and for the price. In a pinch you could get things done.

Seems to be more efficient than a reciprocating saw
That would be for more precise cuts, not heavy duty like logs.
Am wondering about the safety of how close your hand is to the chain....
Seriously, need to take it apart and see what the gearing and/or bearings are like to make that 90 degree.
Is it better to buy the attachment instead of buying the mini chainsaw which is double or triple the price?
this is only good if you dont plan on using it that often. just because it requires 2 hand to get it started per cut
Any link to buy this exact item please?
Got mine on Temu for $8.50....been using it a couple months on my hyper tough 20V drill....no issues...just re-sharpen it when it gets dull.

did you have to oil the chain at all?
Can i start the hole with it?
Awesome dude, thanks for sharing
Great little tool 👍😎🏴
Best tool for camping
My drill is not powerful enough. What voltage is this drill?
18v, use speed 1 for this kind of stuff
when does the gatling gun version come out?
lol
Does it have oil for the blade like ??
it does not. I spray a squirt of Wd 40 on the chain once in a while
Can you try it on the flex turbo, it's higher ram and torque might make this even better?
I can do more tests with other drills to see which one would make it faster
Ótimo vídeo , único , tão prático quanto informativo , sucesso .
Does it require oil treatment?
no, but id spray a little Wd 40 on it once it a while
What is the brand name on this saw?
weytoll is the brand :)
Does an 650 rpm drill 12v 1.3 ah can work this ?
we will find out :)

that is what I was thinking as well
Can we change chain saw from 4 inci to 8 inci?
as long as the rail fits im pretty sure you can. but I wouldnt though. this is a dangerous attachment
Yes i do, because the rail and bar that we sell at the lazada or shopee without merk for spesifik brand

Just use an electric chainsaw.

Pretty cool, thanks for brining this to our attention!
Does it have a oil reservoir?
no chain oil dispenser, just got to spray it with WD in-between jobs for the once in a blue moon tasks
