1 Question

Q: What does 3/8 pitch mean. Is that different from standard chainsaws?
by Donna Bannert on May 31, 2011

A:
Chain pitch is the distance between any three consecutive rivets divided by two. Pitch defines the size of the chain. Husqvarna chain is made in several pitches - 1/4" is the smallest, 3/8" is the most popular. Other parts of the cutting elements are pitch-related. The drive sprocket must be the same pitch as the chain, and so must the nose sprocket in sprocket-nose bars.

Mike's Recommendation

Tanaka is one of the pioneers in 2-stroke (gas-oil mix) engines. Most of their engines meet the strict California CARB emissions standards; and not many others do.

Why, you might ask, is such a great engine on such a little saw? This size and brand is used by professional arborists for climbing trees without catching on branches, as well as trimming limbs from fallen trees- all day, every day.

The light weight and great balance mean you can work longer with less fatigue. Or, a smaller person can cut confidently without overbalancing.

Tanaka stands behind their excellent product with a 3 year Factory Warranty for consumers, and a 2 year Factory Warranty for professional users.

My first choice

Great power and easy to start. I bought it to prune and trim, however because it has so much power it has become my first choice unless I am cutting beyond 12 inches.

Impressed

The first time I used the saw was this weekend......starts great....idles very nice... good power.

I think what impressed me the most was how little gas and oil it uses.

So far I think it's a great product....thank you.
