The type of chainsaw you choose depends on what you plan to cut. You need to be certain of what you are cutting to ensure you find the most suitable chainsaw for your task.
Gustharts has various chainsaw models available to choose from, ranging from pole pruners to arborist chainsaws. Pole pruners are excellent for pruning branches or deadwood at a height.
Arborist chainsaws are an ideal choice for those needing a lightweight chainsaw for small tasks such as removing deadwood and branches; however, if you need to remove a large tree, forestry chainsaws have exceptional power, making them the perfect option.
Petrol and battery chainsaws are the two main power types available at Gustharts, each with advantages and disadvantages. Petrol chainsaws are often used for larger tasks, such as felling trees, as they are more powerful than battery chainsaws.
Battery chainsaws are best suited for domestic use, as they are quieter and produce no emissions, making them an ideal choice for those living in urban areas. You will require a power source if you have a corded battery chainsaw.
Battery-powered chainsaws are typically used in domestic settings as they are lightweight and require less maintenance than a petrol chainsaw. You may find petrol chainsaws harder to start than battery-powered chainsaws as you need to prime the chainsaw and start it via the lever, compared to a battery chainsaw that only needs to be turned on by a switch.
Corded chainsaws are designed with a cable that must be connected to a power source to operate, whereas battery packs power cordless chainsaws. Corded chainsaws can also restrict your ability to move around, as the cable may get in your way and cause distractions.
Cordless chainsaws are often heavier than corded chainsaws due to the addition of the battery pack. If you require a chainsaw that can operate easily for longer periods, corded chainsaws are an excellent choice.
Although corded chainsaws are lighter to operate, they require a nearby power source, which limits the range in which you can use them; however, cordless chainsaws are run by battery packs, which allow you to move freely with unlimited range. You may need to carry a couple of extra fully-charged battery packs to ensure you can operate your chainsaw for a prolonged period.
STIHL chainsaws provide exceptional cutting performance for all users, allowing you to tackle various tasks. Whether you need a chainsaw for domestic or professional use, Gustharts stocks various STIHL chainsaw models to help you complete your tasks to the highest standard.
Battery-powered STIHL chainsaws are a great choice for those wanting a chainsaw for domestic purposes or living in urban areas, as they are quiet and produce no emissions.
Conversely, petrol chainsaws are a fantastic option for those needing a chainsaw to complete professional tasks. STIHL petrol chainsaws are typically more powerful than battery-powered ones, allowing you to easily fell large trees and branches.
Various comfort features, such as ergonomic handles and anti-vibration systems, are implemented into the design of STIHL chainsaws to ensure every user is comfortable operating their chainsaw.
STIHL chainsaws have various features that help to make your chainsaw experience easier, indicated by a letter at the end of the model name:
A STIHL chainsaw with the letter ‘B’ indicates the chainsaw has a STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning system that allows for easier chain tensioning.
Opting for a STIHL chainsaw with the letter ‘C’ at the end of the model name signifies that the chainsaw is a comfort model.
When the letter ‘E’ comes after a model name, this specifies that the chainsaw has Ergo Start technology, which helps to make petrol chainsaws easier to start.
Depending on how well you care for and maintain your chainsaw, a STIHL chainsaw can run for up to approximately 2,000 hours. If you were to use your chainsaw for one hour a day, your chainsaw would last for approximately five and a half years. STIHL chainsaws designed for domestic use may have a shorter runtime than professional chainsaws.
