    Pruning trees is a breeze with a cordless chainsaw. The battery powered chainsaw or mini chainsaw worked great on our trees. If you were wondering do mini chainsaws need oil, yes, they work best with lubricant. How to cut tree branches and pruning a tree was easy with the mini chainsaw.

    I'm 74 and just bought one of these. Looking forward to using it. Loppers require some strength and tire me out. This video was really helpful. Thanks.

    This was by far the best video I have viewed about mini chainsaws, showing how to put it together etc because some people haven't got a clue and it's always nice to actually see something being done. What are you using for lubrication please? Thank you

      I used Slick 50 lube, but any spray lube will work.

    Just picked one of these up (used) at an estate sale. Different color, but otherwise just like the one pictured. I've used it a couple of time already and it works just as good as the video shows. A great little tool for trimming around the property. I recommend it.

    Best explanation of the correct way to put the chain on. The manual did not clearly show the correct chain teeth direction. True that it does not cut if It is mounted wrong.

    i got this type of cheap saw, upgraded it to 10 inch bar and chain which is available in aliexpress.. the best part with this saw is it can fit makita battery which i already have.. with 6ah makita battery it got enough power and torque to take down the full grown 14 inch diameter tree without stalling.

    I can see where it would be useful for those branches that are too big for loppers. On the smaller branches it seems to be pretty slow (compared to loppers). I can definitely see where this would be good for someone with mobility issues, though. If you can't use loppers, then this would be the way to go.

    So far the biggest limb i cut with it was? 4" round. it went threw it like butter A full charge it only last 30 min 👍 then it need to recharge for 2 hours.. SO YES! I 💖it. I keep in my pickup for protection, camping, fishing, and hunting I WANT LEAVE HOME WITH OUT IT, Just like a gun or a knife. The only thing i don't like about it is? The chain slack adjustment. Needs a longer phillip screw driver

    So apparently this does not have built in chainsaw lube delivery like regular chainsaws, and depends on occasional hand lubing or spraying as shown in the video.

    Just starting to research these. I can't help noticing that the "action" on this is very bouncy, not smooth. I assume this is due to the low mass of the tool and other similar products behave the same?

    • @DIYOnTheHouse
      @DIYOnTheHouse  Рік тому

      You are correct. Once the chain start cutting it pulls the tool in tight and smooths out.

      The chain is probably over tightened but a little lube will do wonders.
