- This video is about the Smart Saker Tool Mini Chainsaw. Battery powered mini chainsaws are popular today due to their portability, power and ease of use for pruning trees and shrubs and cutting firewood. In this video, I show you how to tighten, remove, and replace the chain on the Smart Saker Tool Mini Chainsaw. Most of these little saws are pretty similar and this video may be applicable to many of them as well.

Thank you I really appreciate this. My husband recently passed and I have a lot of work to do in my small piece of land. This helped me so I can continue to clean up my yard. God bless.
I’m so sorry to hear about your husband’s passing. So glad I could help and thank you for sharing! God bless you!
Thank you. Your video was very helpful. My mini came with poor instructions, and no mention of oil. It does not appear to have holes for oil as I have on my larger chainsaw. Would you suggest just oiling the chain and wiping the excess? I’m afraid of gumming it up.
@@patriciag7508 Yes. Lubricate the chain with oil regularly when using it. My saw came with a very small dropper bottle of a clear, light weight oil. I use a multi-purpose spray lubricant
Thank you! I didn’t want to look for my manual for 30 min and you had this explained to me in about 30 seconds… as a first time chainsaw owner, I appreciate you taking the time to make this video!
You’re welcome! Glad I could help!
This is a Godsend. The manufacturer’s instructions are not good. Many thanks! Subscribed.
Thank you!
Excellent instructions. Would have been lost without your help.
Thank you!
This is the best present I've ever bought myself and I didn't want to screw it up. Crystal clear instructions and explanation! I know these videos are a lot of trouble to make but they are appreciated! Thanks!!
Thank you! Have a blessed day!
My fiancée just carelessly f*ed up my mini chainsaw. Your video came in clutch. Thanks.
I’m happy to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
Never touched a chain saw before. Thank You for clear instructions on the correct way to align the chain and tighten it.
Thanks from Melbourne Australia.
Thanks for your kind comment, sir!
Thank you! I looked at the instructions that came with the tool & couldn’t make much sense of the diagram. Your video is excellent and I was able to clean and adjust the chain. Again, many thanks..subscribed
You’re welcome! Thanks for sharing and subscribing !!
Thank you. Your video allowed me to see how it's done. After that, it was a breeze.
You’re welcome!
You should show us in an indoor environment where there's no wind in the sound
Thank you for the clear instructions! Just what I was looking for.
Stephen ….thanks for the help …… the manual never explains how to set up the chain and tighten …but you did ! I appreciate it !
You’re very welcome! I appreciate your comment!
We spent 2 minutes using it and ended up trying to fix the loose chain for 45 minutes. The instructions that came with it was vague at best. Your video was helpful, especially knowing how much tension the chain should have.
Thanks for sharing!
Just got it in the mail. I am going through it trying to put this chain back on and tighten it. Lord help me
I finally got it. I had to watch video a few times, slow down and think it through. Thank you
@@ashtonbelle8778 You’re welcome! Thanks for sharing!
I have never tried to do anything remotely like this before & had been wrestling with the problem (and an inadequate 'instruction' leaflet) for some time... Thank you so much for clear instructions which did the trick, allowing me to assemble it and get it working in minutes.
You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help!
This was extremely helpful! Thank you for your time!
You’re welcome! Thanks for sharing!
This video was very helpful. I was having trouble with the smaller screw...didn't realize it was supposed to be pushed farther back.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you never used one or any chain saw needed this help.
You’re welcome!
Thanks! Exactly what I needed - the instructions were...vague.
This tutorial helped immensely! Thank you
You are welcome! Glad it helped!
Thanks for sharing this I have one of these handy Dandy chainsaws.
You’re welcome! Thank you for sharing!
thank you very much man.. my first mini-chain-saw doesn't have manuals (it gave wrong tool's-manual lol).. managed to assemble.. but the chains loose very much! would be dangerous to use with such condition.. with your instructions (the small screw in the middle is to tighen the chains, though its very hard to adjust), I managed to get it to top conditions, ready to saw! thanks again
Thank you!
Good Job with your video, your instructions were amazing!
Thank you for taking the time to tell me!
I purchased one last month for your farm. $$$ & time well spent. Safer than full size saw for small clean up jobs
Would recommend getting the 6” bar.
Yes, it is! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you So much!!!
Thank you for explaining how to do this.
You’re welcome!
Thank you!

You’re welcome! Thank you for sharing!
Great video👌
Thanks!
thank you so much now i know to fix a loose chain
Glad I could help! Thanks for your comment!
I still can't see in with directions the teeth should go, remember that you might be teaching persons that don't know there left hand from their right, like my self
The teeth on the chain come to a point. That point needs to be pointing in the direction the chain moves, which is forward as you look at the top of the bar. Good question. Thanks for asking!
They way you think it goes…them turn it over-works for me.
There MUST be an easy way for manufacturers to put a tiny (etched or colored) arrow point in right direction for us DIYers. 😅
Sub'd thanks for helping me tighten this thing... 😅
Any idea how to put the guard back on? I ended up taking that off too and the spring things is hard to figure out.😅
Thanks for subscribing and you’re welcome!
@@shaunrasmussen5886 I have not taken mine off, but others have asked me that as well. When I get a chance, I’ll have to look into that.
Thank you so much! The so-called instructions manual pretty much sucks.🤷♀️✌️
@@octoberschild3115 You’re welcome! Thanks for sharing!
Hi,
Thank you for the video . My hus band and I have been working for about an hour to get the chainsaw back together again. A small coil came out of the chain saw. Does that go under the guide bar? Again thank you
Hi. I’m not sure. Were you just tightening the chain?
Do you know how to get the chain guard back in place? My brother in law took his apart and can’t get it back together. Thanks!
I will have to look at it. I’ve never had mine off.
Hi
Thank u for the info very helpful. have subscribed. You mentioned using WD40 instead of chainsaw oil on the chain is that something I can do?
Many thanks.
Paul
From the UK.
Hi, Paul. I would suggest that you use bar and chain oil for chainsaws. The oil that comes with the Saker mini chainsaw is very light-weight and a bar and chain oil is a better choice if you use it often. Thanks for your question and thanks for subscribing!
Thanks for the helpful video. I have a very similar model: the 6" Seesii mini. It has been TORTURE working w/the chain; tightening, replacing....most frustration ever w/any tool, since you need to keep a bunch of things going: hold chain tight while at the same time tightening....ugh. I think it's the fault of the engineering; it shouldn't take superhuman coordination to tighten a chain!
You’re welcome! Thanks for sharing!
When it comes time to change the chain on my so described "4" Saker," is it really a 4 "inch" chain on it? Seem that it would need a "6" chain.
I have never replaced mine, but I’m pretty sure the 4 inch refers to the bar length or the width of the cut. Just google for the replacement chain for the Saker mini chainsaw.
Can you use a standard chain sharpening gig on the Saker?
I’m not sure, but I can’t see why not. I always have someone sharpen them for me. Good question though!
@@DiyGuy50 Saker sell a sharpener.
Hope you can help me I've taken my chain safety cover off by mistake and the spring popped out and I don't know what way it goes back in can you please help me best wishes Colin UK 😊
I’m sorry. I have had several people ask the same question but I have never removed mine. If I ever get the chance I’ll make a video on it.
Any chance you know how to put the spring in that’s on the chain guard? I accidentally took it off And have no clue how to put it back on correctly😢
No I don’t. I’ve never had it off. You may have to call Saker Customer Service.
I was able to remove a small stick that had had jammed the chain saw, and followed your instructions to get the chain back on. But now the little black safety button won't push in. Any idea how to fix that?
No, I’m sorry, but I don’t. You might want to email Smartsaker at :
customer@smartsaker.com
Mine has a wingnut but it still wont come off. Any advice
I’m not sure. Are you trying to take the bar off?
You could have shown us how to put oil on it as you were right there.
What lube for the chain should I use?
I just use any bar and chain oil and apply it to the chain in a plastic squeeze bottle. Any spray lubricant will do also.
@@DiyGuy50 Купил такую пилу ! Хороший помощник в саду , дома ! ---. Мини пилы шагают по планете !!! 😅
Need video to put spring safety guard back on
I’ve never had mine off, but when I get a chance I’ll make a video. You’re not the only person who has had an issue with it!
Any chance you've looked at this yet? Can't get the chain guard back on. Thx.
@@markbenson683 No sir, I’m sorry. I haven’t had any time to look at it.
Will it blend?
I’m not sure what you mean.
Im rewiring my mini chainsaw. Getting confused as to what guave wire to use. 12 or 14? It uses a 24 v battery to a 80 amp motor. ?
Actually 21 v battery to 21v 80 watts motor.
Im replacing new motor and the wires are 2 shirt so im rewiring it all. Im getting confused about wire guage needed.
I’m sorry, I can’t help you with that.
I wish you had shown where exactly to put the oil before you ended the video
Hi Kirstie. I apply the oil directly to the bar and chain. You can use any oil, but Stihl sells a “chainsaw bar and chain oil” that comes in a squeeze bottle. Apply the oil to the whole chain. Hope this helps!
I charged 2 batteries but when I put it on it doesn’t start. Then I changed battery , still the same doesn’t budge. What could be the problem?
I would guess that both batteries are dead or the saw is dead. I have had the saw for 2 years and it still works great.
I didn’t get oil with mine. And where to put it???
You have to lubricate the chain manually. I couldn’t find any specific oil recommendations, but, any bar chain oil will do.
@@DiyGuy50 -thank you.
Bought two of these and great saws until one froze up and will not function?! Even the trigger won't engage!
Thank you so much for this video I let a boy use my chainsaw one day when we were clearing some brush he was a little too rough with it and knocked the chain off couldn't find my directions look up your video on how to replace the chain and fix it thank you so much I'm back to cutting
You are very welcome! Thanks for sharing!
Can anyone help? I have tightened the nut on the top plate and it won't budge now to remove the plate and assemble the chain on the sproket. The nut just goes round and round any ideas anyone? thanks
It sounds like the threaded post/bolt is turning with the nut . Idk what to tell you if that’s the case. See if you can contact Saker Tools.
Does one need to grease it or put WD 40? Or none.
I use WD40 on the bar and chain. Bar chain oil works well too. But you need to apply it as it is not self-oiling as most chainsaws are.
@@DiyGuy50 Thank you I used WD 40 it worked.
I did not understand what you tightened when you snugging-up the chain.
Watch the segments at the 1:09 and the 4:20 marks. There is a philips head screw that moves a small metal post back and forth when you turn the screw. That post fits in a hole in the bar and when you turn the screw counter-clock-wise, it moves the bar back toward the sprocket that the chain goes over and loosens the chain. Tighten the chain by turning the screw clock-wise which moves the bar away from the sprocket. Hope this helps.
The wind!!!
Yep! It was very windy!
The supplied screwdriver doesn’t fit the little screw head…
The screw driver that came with mine did fit, but it is a little too short.
Can’t hear you, but can hear the wind just fine 😖
Yes, I know. I’m sorry about that. It was very windy that day. I should have done the video inside the garage.
Use chain saw oil. WD40 is crap
Thank you for going slow. Some of us women aren’t too good with tools.
You’re welcome!
Thank you for not generalizing ❤
someone show a fix for the saws that shut off every time you start cutting?
Are you talking about a gas-powered saw or battery?
