01 Why Choose A Stihl Chainsaw?
Stihl are known for creating dependable, durable and highly efficient power tools, including their chainsaws. They help to keep the user safe and comfortable, deliver the best results and they are very efficient. Every component of a Stihl chainsaw has been developed with decades of knowledge and experience, to fine-tune them into market leading chainsaws. The Stihl range features electric, cordless and petrol chainsaws, to find something that works for you. Everything from reducing emissions and vibrations to making the chainsaws as light as possible and providing an excellent amount of power, you will simply have a cleaner and easier cutting experience.
02 Should I Choose A Petrol or Electric Chainsaw?
The main thing to consider when deciding whether to choose a petrol or electric chainsaw is the type of job you require it for. Petrol chainsaws are the most powerful, so for heavy-duty jobs or much larger jobs like cutting down large trees, the petrol option will be more effective. With Stihl, you don’t need to be as concerned about some of the traditional drawbacks of petrol chainsaws, as they are designed with anti-vibration systems, low emission engines and a single level master control, ensuring they’re still easy to maneuver despite the excellent power.
If your preference would be an electric chainsaw, Stihl’s are still very powerful and provide highly efficient cutting. You also access a lower noise and vibration output and don’t need to worry about refilling an engine. Ideal for a range of different garden maintenance jobs from cutting firewood to hedge laying, an electric chainsaw is a very good choice for many users.
03 Benefits of A Cordless Electric Chainsaw
With a cordless electric chainsaw, there are all of the usual benefits of other Stihl electric chainsaws like low noise output, high torque and low vibrations, with the additional benefit of not being restricted by needing to be near a power outlet. You can complete the jobs you need for between 50 and 55 minutes depending on the battery with a cordless chainsaw, which is usually no problem for smaller jobs.
04 How To Safely Use Chainsaws
When using a chainsaw, whether it’s electric or petrol, you should always wear a safety helmet, ear defenders, chainsaw trousers, chainsaw gloves and safety boots. Check that your chainsaw is fully intact before beginning any work, always hold the chainsaw firmly on both handles and ensure that you are in a steady stance where you have full control when the chainsaw starts to vibrate. Make sure to always switch off the chainsaw fully immediately after use. It is advised that you have sufficient chainsaw training from someone experienced to help you get the best results as well as to ensure that you remain safe at all times.
