Mountfield Mc3816 Petrol Chainsaw

Garden Centre > Power Tools & Machinery > Chainsaws

Domestic chainsaws are rarely such good value for money or come with such a pedigree in this price bracket. This model is European made supremely reliable and top-quality offering high performance and the kind of build quality that normally comes much higher up the price spectrum. Powered by a 38.3cc Mountfield 2-stroke engine producing 1.7kw of power with electronic ignition for reliability the MC3816 has a primer pump to prime the carburettor particularly useful with a 2-stroke engine where the oil/fuel mixture is viscous assisting starting efficiency. The guide bar on this model is 40 centimetres long so ideal for making a good sized store of firewood or limbing and pruning small to medium-sized trees. The chain pitch is .325 inches and there is a sprocket nose which helps ease the moving chain around the bend at the tip of the bar lengthens the chain?s working life and makes the cut smoother and more efficient. A double acting chain brake is fitted for operator safety. This serves a dual purpose. The front hand-guard protects the forward hand from the moving chain and also serves as a manual chain brake. Added to this if there is kickback and the guard knocks against the hand the chain stops. A chain catcher is fitted as well to deal with potential chain derailment. The weight of the Mountfield MC3816 Petrol Chainsaw is a comfortably manageable 4.5kg (excluding chain and bar) and the balance and power to weight ratio are very good making the saw easy to use for longer. The handles are comfortable with a wraparound rear handle and the underneath of the chainsaw is flat so it can be put down safely without rolling off for safety and convenience. This premium quality chainsaw comes at a fraction of the price you would expect and includes a full manufacturers warranty of one year. LOOK>>
