Chainsaw - an indispensable tool in the country, if you are going to start your garden. However, not only at the dacha it can be used - with its help it is possible to produce blanks for wooden sculptures. However, it is important to choose the right model from all the abundance that stores offer.

The first thing to understand is that a household appliance should be of high quality, and then it's worth taking models from popular manufacturers. For example, those that are presented on the website "Bulgarian". This ensures that the equipment will last long and will meet the stated specifications.

Next - the power. Here everything depends on how thick the trees will need to be processed and at what pace. To give a good option are options having a power of 1.5 to 2 kW. Cope with small diameter trees, withstand a load of 20 hours per month. If the trees are thicker, and you need to work more on time - take models from 2 to 3 kW.

Weight - a value is partially critical. Theoretically, the power affects the weight in direct proportion, so that the more powerful the equipment, the heavier it is. Household models weigh relatively little - from 4 to 4.5 kg.

The length of the tire affects the diameter of the tree, which you can saw at a time. The optimal size for a dacha is 35 cm, this is just enough to work with trees, the trunk of which is in diameter from 24 to 60 cm (in the latter case, however, at one time such a tree can not be cut down).

Step chain - the distance between the nearest teeth.

The parameter is not very important, since household models differ by a step of 0.325 inches. Yes, the performance is not very high, but the minimum vibration and noise (which is important).

Security - and this is a very important parameter. Back blow - a danger that anyone who uses a chainsaw can face. Occurs when the saw blade hits a hard surface, which results in the saw itself being thrown back forcefully. On the equipment there should be a handle-flap, sharply braking a chain in case of a return impact.
