Mini Electric Chainsaw Pruning Tool

Velleora Home Decor's Mini Electric Chainsaw handles the jobs a full chainsaw is too much for and loppers are not enough for: overhanging branches, thick shrub stems, firewood rounds and storm damage. It is light enough to work one-handed at arm's length, which is exactly where a heavy saw becomes dangerous.

A brushless motor drives a short guide bar with a proper chain, so it cuts rather than tears, and tool-free tensioning means you can adjust the chain in the middle of a job without hunting for a spanner. The battery clips out to charge, an automatic oiler keeps the bar lubricated, and a two-step trigger prevents the chain starting in a bag or a shed.

Treat it as a chainsaw, because it is one. Wear eye protection, gloves and stout footwear, keep both hands on the tool wherever the cut allows, and never cut above shoulder height or from a ladder. Keep your face and body out of the line of the bar, watch for the tip contacting anything (that is what causes kickback), and remove the battery before tensioning, oiling or clearing debris.
