That said, there were a couple of noticeable differences between the two, with the first being that the P1PE doesn’t have a decompression button. However, unlike the Hyundai, it has good grips on its handle, which should make it slightly easier to use the machine.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary. A petrol chainsaw is a powerful and effective piece of machinery. It’s a tool that’s sure to cut time on tasks in the garden. Petrol powered chainsaws are usually the heaviest of the 3 types, but this doesn’t mean they need to be hard to use. A shoulder strap will help to lighten the load while you work, and the right handle can also make a huge difference. Handle Comfort and Ergonomics Fortunately I stumbled across this online on sale. Thought I'd take a punt and was not dissapointed.

In terms of performance, this Einhell chainsaw shines. It starts easily and was able to slice through everything that I asked it to. Due to the length of the bar, the maximum trunk diameter that I used this chainsaw on was around 80 cm (32”), and it cut through those without any problems. If you have larger trees that need to be cut, then you’ll need a larger chainsaw, but, for the average home user, this one should be able to handle everything that you need it to.

No matter how well-designed or powerful a chainsaw may be, this doesn’t mean anything unless that chainsaw is also easy and convenient to use. Fortunately, this ParkerBrand chainsaw couldn’t have been more comfortable to handle, even for long periods of time. Not familiar with the P1PE brand? Neither was I, until I tried their impressive 62cc Petrol Chainsaw. Turns out, P1PE, which is short for Position One Power Equipment, is well-acquainted with producing power tools and garden machinery, with all of them being powered by Hyundai engines. So, having recently tested out Hyundai’s 62cc petrol chainsaw, I was curious to see how this lower-priced alternative would compare. It’s aimed at people who need to carry out both small clearance jobs as well as heavy-duty tree felling, making it seem like the ideal machine to help me tidy up all of the damage that Storm Arwen had caused around my farm. Nevertheless, I managed to forget about all of that once I actually started to use the chainsaw – it performs brilliantly. In fact, I would say that, out of all of the chainsaws that I tested, this one performed the best. The Hyundai IC62-2R 2-stroke engine runs on a 25:1 mixture of unleaded petrol and semi-synthetic 2-stroke oil. It will also run well on 'Aspen 2'. 'Aspen 2' is a ready to go, environmentally friendly 2-stroke mixture that does not deteriorate over time.

Again, in terms of both performance and power, there wasn’t really a significant difference between the P1PE and the Hyundai. The P1PE was able to neatly slice through trunks that were roughly 102 cm (40”) in diameter, yet it handled smaller branches just as well too. Bought this for my husband his old one as died, for the money, fabulous, does the job very pleased with it

It comes with a centrifugal air cleaning system that ensures the air entering the chainsaw is as clean as possible to prevent debris in the air from damaging the air filter. That enhances the lifespan of the filter and also reduces the number of times you clean it. Seriously good piece of kit. Cutting 20" + poplar wood like butter. Starts easily, powerful, great value price. Highly recommended Once assembled, I could clearly see that this was an Einhell product, simply because there aren’t many other brands that use such a distinctive red colour for their products. The design of this chainsaw is well thought-out – from the Oregon bar and chain, which is a sign of top quality, to the size of the bar, which is 41 cm (16”) long but slightly narrower than the other chainsaws that I reviewed. The only potential flaw that I could see was the old-fashioned metal on/off switch – all of the other chainsaws that I tested had an on/off button instead. You should never attempt to use a chainsaw while balanced up a tree, or even if you are stretching from a ladder. You should be fully balanced at all times, with space around you for the wood to fall.The working environment can also have a big impact on your safety. Ensure you have a clear working space, and if you’re chopping logs they should be held in place. This chainsaw comes with a big and sturdy 20” bar , making it suitable for large trunks. It also has an easily accessible on/off button, along with a large trigger, a choke button, and a petrol priming bubble. To use a chainsaw safely, you’ll need to be both mentally and physically fit. You should be mobile, alert, physically strong, have good vision, good balance and a strong grip. Operating Your Chainsaw Safely

Petrol chain saws are more powerful and durable than their electric counterparts. They are also easier to use. While electric chainsaws will be quieter and produce no fumes, they can’t match the petrol chainsaws power. Most petrol chainsaws will be designed with a comfortable, grippy handle. You should also look for anti vibration to minimise discomfort. Fitness to Operate a Petrol Chainsaw By the way, it isn't just the model's flexibility and convenient operation that help the company sell this product. We'd say that one of the better parts of this model is the X-Torq® engine. Aside from the aforementioned respectable power, the thing about this engine that makes the chainsaw itself so attractive to a number of different customers is its lower fuel consumption and reduced emission levels. Being one of the more environmentally friendly options, the model will fit the eco-conscious to a tee. It’s essential that you’re as comfortable as possible when using your chainsaw, to prevent accidents caused by fatigue. It is a sound environmental choice because it will consume less fuel while offering you dependable performance. It is also low on emissions which means that you won’t have to worry about environmental degradation.

Spare Parts For The P6220C P1PE Chainsaw

Weighing just 6.9kg (including the bar and chain), this powerful chainsaw is both easy to transport and move around, making it easy to achieve a precise cut. Designed to be used by everyone from gardening beginners to expert gardeners, this P1 Power Equipment chainsaw is highly versatile, delivering high performance in all weathers. Powerful Petrol Saw Most of the chainsaws that I tested took about ten minutes to assemble, and this one was no exception. You do waste a bit of time unravelling the chain, but, when it comes to removing and replacing the side panel (so that you can fit the bar and chain), Husqvarna made things more convenient by positioning the screw for this at the front, rather than the side, of the unit.
