FAQs

What is the easiest chain saw to start? ›

The STIHL Easy2Start™ system makes starting STIHL outdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord.

Never attempt to fuel a running or HOT saw. Clear away dirt, debris, small tree limbs and rocks from the saw's chain path. Look for nails, spikes or other metal in the tree before cutting. Shut off the saw or engage its chain brake when carrying the saw on rough or uneven terrain.

Additionally, handsaws can be preferable for removing hard-to-reach branches. It's much easier to maneuver a handsaw with one arm to get to these branches, especially when you need to reach to make the cut. In that same vein, handsaws are more ideal for cuts you're making above shoulder height.

Small Chainsaws (6 to 14 inches): Chainsaws with a guide bar length in this range are perfect for light-duty tasks like pruning, trimming, and cutting small branches. They are also generally lightweight and easy to handle, making them ideal for beginners.

The sharpening angle will generally be between 25° and 35° – the harder the wood, the greater the angle. To maintain the correct angle, we recommend that you use a sharpening grid or a filing gauge as an aid.

The chain should move around the guide bar without a problem but also fit snugly to the bottom of it. Try lifting the top part of the chain at the middle of the guide bar too; it shouldn't lift more than around 5 mm.

Professional loggers use chainsaws that are lightweight but have lots of power behind them. The Husqvarna 455 Rancher is a popular choice by professional loggers. This chainsaw features low-kickback chains and an inertia safety chain break. It is a safe, powerful chainsaw, great for professional use.

Which company is best for chain saw? ›

The bar length of a chainsaw has to be at least 2 inches longer than the wood you plan on cutting. Therefore, professional loggers need chainsaws of 18 to 24 inches for regular workloads and 30 to 36 inches for greater workloads.

Typically a chainsaw with a shorter bar around 14” and smaller is enough for property maintenance, trimming, pruning, and cutting down broken tree limbs.

Recommended chainsaw bar length for home use

A 16 to 18-inch bar should be enough to get the job done.

But which chain cuts fastest and which should you choose? The fastest cutting chainsaw chain is either a full chisel or a chisel skip chain. The full chisel offers the fastest and most aggressive cutting action for chainsaw bars that are 24” or less. For bars that are longer than 24”, choose a chisel skip chain.

Anti Kickback (low)

This is by far the most common chain available and has been designed to prevent kickback. Think of kickback as being a treadmill at high speed, as soon as you step on it, it throws you off. The same can happen with a chainsaw when the tip comes into contact with the piece of wood.
