| Q1: | How long does the battery last? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | An Endurance battery pack will last approximately 250 cuts per charge in 2 to 3 inch (5-7cm) diameter limbs. This performance may vary with user technique, chain sharpness, size and type of wood. A Standard battery pack will last approximately 50% of an Endurance battery pack. Cuts per charge will drop significantly with increasing diameter of wood. |
| | |
| Q2: | How long does the battery take to charge? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | A completely discharged Endurance battery pack will take approximately 120 minutes to charge, while a Standard battery pack will take approximately 60 minutes. |
| | |
| Q3: | How many times can the battery be recharged? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | Both Endurance and Standard battery packs use premium cell technology and will last for approximately 1000 charge / discharge cycles. |

| Q4: | How fast does the saw cut? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | With an Endurance battery pack, in 2 to 3 inch (5-7cm) diameter limbs, the chainsaw will make a cut in approximately 1 second. In 3 to 6 inch (7-15 cm) diameter limbs, the chainsaw will take approximately 4 seconds, while large 8 to 10 inch (20-25 cm) diameter cuts will take approximately 25 seconds. This performance may vary with user technique, chain sharpness, and hardness of the wood. Cutting speeds with a Standard battery pack are very similar in small diameter limbs. |

| Q5: | What is the difference between Endurance and Standard batteries? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | An Endurance battery pack offers increased capacity as it has 20 individual lithium ion cells, while a Standard battery pack has 10 cells. An Endurance battery pack weighs 2.7 lb (1.2 kg), while a Standard battery pack weighs 1.7 lb (0.8 kg). In the chainsaw model CS250, an Endurance battery pack also offers increased power for faster cutting speed in large diameter wood. |

| Q6: | Can a non-PowerSharp® type chain be used on the saw? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | Yes. Other chains can be used on the chainsaw; however, the integrated sharpening feature will only work with PowerSharp chain. When installing another chain type, remove the sharpening stone as non-PowerSharp chains can be damaged by operating the red lever when a sharpening stone is installed. OREGON® 91PX chain is recommended as an alternate chain. |
| | |
| Q7: | Can I put a shorter or longer guide bar on the saw? by SpeedwaySales.com |
| | It is not recommended to install a guide bar longer than 14 inches (35 cm). The chainsaw has been designed with a 14 inch (35 cm) guide bar as the optimal length. Performance will decrease with a longer guide bar. Shorter guide bars with an A041 tail mount can be fitted to the chainsaw. |
