I have the same saw, I used it already for logging in my forest. With my big battery stock I already had before I can use it for hours without charging. It's very comfortable, now I don't really use my bigger gas saws any more excepted for things you really need their power.
Please tell me, many people in comments across internet told me one thing that is annoying with makita duc353. When you press power and u cut something, when you put it aside, after 5 seconds saw turns itself off, and you have to start it again constantly, if you are cutting something and moving cutted logs in same time. Can you start your chainsaw and put it aside to see, will it really turn itself off after 5 seconds. Why is this important for me ? - i am buying thiy chainsaw for my father. He is old and very very short tempered. If chainsaw will keep turning off after 5 seconds he will probably break it. I am very afraid he will break it cuz he has PTSD, he is war veteran. Thats why it matters to me so much
nice video on the performance bruh, thanks for filming and posting, i was really impressed with that, and i have boudht one off of amazon, because you actually showed how much you could theoretically cut
I’m using the Makita XCU03 with an Archer 16" bar and Archer full chisel chain right now to cut firewood from a large pile of mixed hardwood logs larger than 16" diameter that didn't get to the mill. It cuts faster than the 14 with Oregon chain and doesn't struggle. I got both bar and chain for $30 free shipping on Ebay. Archer 16", 3/8"LP, .043", 56DL Guide Bar Replaces 164MLEA041 For Husqvarna Saws. Chain: 16" Archer 3/8" LP, .043", 56-DL Saw Chain Replaces 90PX056G, Stihl 61PMM3, H38. I cut my wood in 9” lengths. Of course, shorter wood requires twice as many cuts, but the pieces are easier for me to lift and split (I'm 70). I fill a small trailer 5’x4’x2’ above the side rails, which is near the maximum I want to pull with a small RZR side by side. This usually requires using up a set of 6 Ah and one set of 5 Ah batteries. Occasionally I need a little extra battery so I carry some of my old lower capacity 3 and 4 Ah batteries if I need to finish off. If I were cutting 18” long pieces I think this saw might easily cut an 8’ pickup load of wood with two sets of 6 Ah batteries. Wonder no longer. I'm using a 16 inch bar and see no value in going back to a 14 inch length for any reason.
@@geraldmoore6257great reply, thanks for the tip on a good 16” bar. I was wondering the same and can’t get a 16” saw in Europe. They only sell the 14” in this model.

Brill thanks for that, what a great little saw ideal for a bit of logging.
cuts just like a petrol saw but without the noise and fumes

I wanna buy one, but you can buy the battery and the machine separately. Can you tell me the type of the battery, wich one you are using in the video?

I wonder if this machine could handle a 16" bar.
