Cutting Bar: The 14-inch (35cm) bar has a 13m/s chain speed for powerful medium-duty cutting, suitable for a wide range of activities in the garden.

Performance: The Hyundai Chainsaw HYC1600E is a high-performance chainsaw with a powerful 1600W motor that’s ideal for homeowners and DIY novices who need a medium-duty chainsaw for everyday chores around the house.

Durable: The 14 inch (35cm) bar and chain has a 13 m/s chain speed and provides excellent cutting power each time. It also includes automatic chain lubrication to avoid wear, as well as an oil level window that is visible from both sides of the chainsaw, making it easy to track when oil levels are running low.

Type: Electric chainsaws have several benefits over petrol engine chainsaws, some of which include: no highly flammable petrol, no 2-stroke oil to mix with the petrol, and no pull-starting difficulties.

Ease of Use: It is light and simple to use, with innovative SDS tool-free chain adjustment for quick and easy maintenance. It also has rapid and simple tool-free installation.

Safety: The Hyundai HYC1600E chainsaw includes an electric/mechanical chain brake that activates when you push the brake handle forward, stopping the saw in 0.15 seconds. Its hardened steel spiked bumper improves stability while cutting. There are no highly flammable petrols, no 2-stroke oil to mingle with the petrol, minimal noise.The strong, reinforced plastic bumper and tough steel spiked bumper also improve stability when cutting.

Maintenance: The transparent chain oil tank, which is viewable from both sides of the 1600W chainsaw, may be rapidly checked and refilled to extend chain life. We recommend using a high-quality lubrication oil while doing so.

To make using this chainsaw as easy as possible, it has tool-less, one-handed chain tensioning and automatic chain lubrication, allowing you to get the most performance out of your chainsaw while minimizing any interruption to your gardening.

Set-Up/Assembly: The corded electric chainsaw is quick and easy to put together out of the box with no tools required, so you can start working on any gardening chores right away.

FAQs

What is the best way to sharpen a chainsaw blade? I bought one of these and need to replace the blade, where may I get one from? What chainsaw sharpener should I purchase?

I’d go to your local garden equipment store and request a new blade for a 14 inch guide bar. They may be able to sharpen blades, but it’s probably better to buy a new one.

Does this come with chain/guide oil or does it need to be bought prior to use?

It doesn’t come with any oil.

Do you happen to know the chain gauge? Hyundai's helpline was unaware, and the instruction book didn't provide it.

The correct Chain gauge was / is printed on the tiny plastic bag in which the original chain was packaged ( Size: 3/8.050x52DL). The information I’ve copied to the instruction book.

Is it possible to cut a hedge limb at an angle, for example, 45 degrees, on average? Or is it necessary to use the saw vertically at all times

It doesn’t know if it’s cutting at 45 degrees or not, so all you have to do is make sure the branches don’t spring back at you.
