How to choose the right chainsaw
Choosing the right chainsaw in Mackay depends on how you plan to use it and the features that suit your needs. To help you make the right decision, here are five important things to consider when buying a new chainsaw:
- Power Source: Decide between petrol, battery, or electric depending on the size of your job and access to power.
- Bar Length: Choose a bar length that suits the type of cutting you’ll be doing, from light pruning to heavy-duty felling.
- Weight and Balance: Look for a model that’s comfortable to hold and easy to manoeuvre for longer tasks.
- Safety Features: Ensure the chainsaw includes essential safety elements like chain brakes, anti-vibration handles, and chain catchers.
- Maintenance Needs: Consider how often the chainsaw will need servicing and whether replacement parts are readily available.

What size chainsaw do I need?
The right size depends on the task. Smaller bar lengths (30–40cm) are ideal for pruning and light cutting, while larger bars (over 45cm) suit felling trees and heavy-duty work. Always match the bar size and engine power to the type of cutting you plan to do.
Are battery-powered chainsaws as effective as petrol models?
Battery-powered chainsaws are quieter, lightweight, and great for smaller tasks like pruning and cutting firewood. While they don’t offer the same power as petrol models, advances in battery technology have made them suitable for many residential and light commercial jobs with less noise and maintenance required.
How often should I sharpen the chainsaw chain?
Chains should be sharpened every few hours of use or whenever you notice reduced cutting efficiency. Dull chains can cause extra strain on the engine and increase safety risks. Regular sharpening ensures clean cuts, better performance, and longer life for both the chain and the saw.
