Afternoon Nap
Brother Phil gave me my first lesson using the new battery powered chainsaw. Brother Brent had researched them while he was here and had me get an Eco. I'd had it w/ my other chainsaw. The thing leaks oil like a sieve, needs a special mixture of oil and gas for fuel, and I couldn't get the thing started. This Eco chainsaw is sweet. First part of the lesson was how to disable the chainsaw using the kickback brake. Don't want it starting up until I'm ready to cut. Then I put the battery on the charger, took the battery off the charger, and slapped that puppy into place on the chainsaw. Made a sound similar to when a magazine is slammed into place in a gun on TV. I could feel the power. Phil showed me where to put in the blade oil. Easy to see if it was too much or too little via it's transparent container. Tightened the blade by just moving a guage on the side. Went out to a small tree that was growing in the meadow, gripped the chainsaw w/ both hands and hit the start button. The tree kinda vanished. I love this thing!
