Nice follow up to your First Cut and Demo video on this Ryobi 40v 14-inch chainsaw. Once you learn the difference in cutting methods between the battery and gas chainsaws, you start to appreciate the battery chainsaw more. Nice to see how a small battery 14-inch chainsaw is fully capable of felling those trees. My best advice with the battery chainsaws is to keep the chain sharp and let the saw do the cutting. You cannot bear down with your weight on these battery chainsaws like we did with the gas chainsaws. They are different. I use my battery chainsaw about 95% of the time now, and take out the gas Stihl chainsaw only for big jobs when long runtime is needed that I cannot cover with my batteries.
I have a rather small and very dead cedar to bring down this weekend. I've worked with a lot of dangerous tools but I've never used a chain saw. I'll be using a battery-powered one like yours to cut the tree. Thanks for the straightforward video, I'm feeling confident about getting the job done right.
After watching this video above. I feel almost the same way you do about cutting down a tree Dave. This guy in this video above made it look so quick and easy to cut down a tree to me.
Thank you for doing a demo and unboxing of this chainsaw! I got one for Christmas aaand it's still in the box because I've been a bit intimidated by chainsaws lol! That's about to change today, thank you 😊 🙏 ☀️
110 middle aged woman here. Just wear head to toe protection in case of anything that gets thrown off. You can see the little pieces it throws off. This guy wore NO PROTECTION. Every lady should own a chain saw.
I have a Cedar tree that is overgrown with briars and vines. I had to cut and chop just to get to the trunk. I followed all instructions but it still fell in the wrong direction (it was my first tree and it was already leaning). It wasn’t too large so I can still handle it. Thank you!
got the same battery saw. i have cut up to 16"-18" maple, but this so is better for limbing, and trimming tree tops before bucking, or felling. also much safer if you must go in the air, or climb.
Ryobi also makes an 18-inch 40v chainsaw. It looks like the same 40v motor. I contacted Ryobi Tools support and they told me I could use an 18-inch bar and chain on this 14-inch chainsaw. I bought an 18-inch bar/chain combo but have not used it yet. Should be a nice upgrade if it works.
Dont forget to take the angle of the tree into account not all trees grow straight if you want to drop a tree and its leaning the wrong way you have to do it from the top to the bottom.
I don't cut that many trees down only small ones and prune branches, but at 0:24 when he reached his hand to clear that cut out , isn't that dangerous? Couldn't the tree possibly start to fall and pinch his hand between the cut out.
Its an electric saw so hearing protection isnt as important as with a gas powered saw and gloves arent a requirement personally I cant use a chainsaw safely wearing gloves.
Seriously?? I've used chain saws all my life...Gas powered ones and I've never used ear and hand protection. Just like with weed eating.....I never use ear protection. And I still have excellent hearing.

the second tree showed me the views and angles much better. thx

@@0820XXX For the record: The job was done quickly and safely, I did just what he advises in the video. Good luck and be careful. :)
I appreciate your response back to me Dave and I hope you and your family had is great Christmas and a happy new year.
This guy should be wearing longs sleeves, gloves and eye protection. Little pieces inevitably fly off.
well done. also nice work on the production quality and multiple angles and cameras
Love the video! Quick and to the point!

You do it like a boss. I've got a small magnolia and a small evergreen I've got to get down.
Great video the only thing it needs is a close up of the stumps as the video fades out
Love short how it's done videos
Very nice cuts
I'm about to go give it a try....wish me luck!! You 😂
Good luck!!
Thank you sir helpful video
Good work ...👍
Nice
Thank you for this... now I have the confidence to give it a go. I'll post the video and reference your video if I do it right 🤣😂 #KapKen

You should wear long pants, sleeves, gloves and eye protection for the bits and pieces that are thrown off.
no hard hat required?
So basically, you just need to know what you're doing. Got it!

No, it's impossible
No....because there isn't enough of the tree cut out to make it fall. That's the purpose of the cut on the back side.
The only thing I see wrong here is no hearing protection and those glasses are not the best protection.
It's not gas powered. Don't need hearing protection without the excessive decibels from a gas engine
Bad example with no safety gear except glasses
