The Makita UC3541A/2 Review is a chainsaw with a 35 cm (14 in) bar and mains electric power.
A 35 cm bar cuts a log of about 35 cm in a single pass, and is at its most comfortable on timber up to roughly 30 cm. Thicker wood is not impossible, since cutting from both sides doubles the effective capacity, but it is slower and harder to keep straight.
The specification lists a 1800W motor, a 240V battery platform, a listed weight of 4.8 kg.
It is fitted with a chain brake, tool-free chain tensioning, low-kickback chain.
A mains saw gives the most cutting power per pound spent, as long as the work happens within reach of a socket. Use a heavy-duty extension lead fully unwound, and plug into an RCD. It is a homeowner grade machine, intended for occasional use rather than daily work.
Specifications are as published by the manufacturer or the retailer listing rather than measured by us. Always check the figures on the product page before buying.
