In construction, on production sites, manor plots, logging and in other cases when it is necessary to work with wood, as a rule, a saw is its integral part. When fulfilling the tasks set with a conventional hand saw, a large amount of time and the cost of physical strength are necessary. Significantly reduces the time and facilitates the work of a person in such conditions, a chain saw that can operate both from electricity and gasoline. Both types of saws have good characteristics, but differ in their parameters. So, an electric chain saw has several advantages over a gasoline one:
- in comparison with gasoline, the electric chain saw during operation has a significantly reduced
noise level (with the same power parameters), which has a beneficial effect on the operating conditions of the operator;
- in electric saws there is no need to periodically inspect the engine, clean it and often repair, as required by gasoline appliances (in addition, a gasoline saw constantly requires equipping it with special oils, which can improve the efficiency of the tool).
- an electric chain saw does not require the operator certain knowledge of working with a power tool, except for operational aspects and compliance with labor protection standards.
It is worth noting that the electric chain saw is suitable where small volumes of work are expected, since its operational characteristics and low productivity allow you to non-stop performing a small portion of work without wasting human energy. An important condition for the use of this type of power tool is the presence of a power grid next to the construction site or area on which this or that activity is carried out. Otherwise, the device cannot be used.
As a rule, an electric chain saw is purchased for home use and does an excellent job. That is why most branded manufacturers create their own power tools, focusing on quality, productivity and improving human operating conditions. Thus, the power saw becomes an indispensable tool when cutting trees, dead wood, knots in the homestead, house territory, for cutting firewood and preparing them for the winter (in suburban areas), etc.
In the Russian market, an electric chain saw is offered by the following manufacturers:
- CHAMPION - saws are transversely mounted engine with double insulation. They do not require tire and chain lubrication, as this happens automatically. Reasonable prices.
GREENLINE - offers compact sizes, convenient dimensions and lightweight saw options. Each model is made of high-quality components, which allows you to have a high warranty period .
FORWARD - saws have high power thanks to the longitudinal arrangement of the engine and usability thanks to the rubberized case reducing slip.
HUTER - saws are most comfortable to use by the operator. The engine is located longitudinally, automatic chain tension, high power, surge protection.
