Some Basics About Homelite Chainsaws
There are a lot more chainsaws out there on the market than there used to be, too. While this kind of tool was once primarily a heavy, difficult to maneuver one, for use by professionals who needed it to work, lighter, easier to use saws that retain enough power to do the job are becoming more common. Most manufacturers are now offering chainsaws for use by people who only need them occasionally. The major groups are electric, gasoline powered, and cordless electric, each of which comes in a range of sizes. Homelite makes both corded electric and gasoline saws, to help them provide products to a wide market.
In general, gasoline powered chainsaws are noisier and more powerful than electric ones, and they can be taken places that a cord will not reach. An electric chainsaw, on the other hand, can be used indoors without worrying about fumes, is smaller and lighter, easier to maneuver, and often less expensive. It's also much quieter and doesn't require the fuss and mess of mixing gasoline and oil for a two cycle engine.
Homelite was originally founded in 1921, and produced one of the first lightweight chainsaws in the mid 1940s. Homelite's electric saws got a lot of positive attention, making it a trusted brand throughout North America ever since. However, light electric saws aren't all the company produces. They also have some truly powerful models, such as the Timberman 20", a 45cc machine with zip start and a large guide bar for cutting larger trees and cordwood. To prevent injury, this model has an anti-kickback feature, as well as a chainsaw break.
If you're not a professional and don't need to cut large trees, but still need more power than an electric Homelite chainsaw can provide, you might want to consider the sixteen inch Ranger, designed for work around the yard. It's good at cutting small trees and doing light yardwork, and features a 33cc engine. Plus, like every other chainsaw from Homelite, it comes with a two year warranty. Expect to get complete information on your saw, including date of manufacture, too.
If you're in the market for a quality chainsaw, look for the distinctive red and black housing. Homelite saws have been known for their effectiveness for a long time, and continue to provide great service. There's a wide enough range to provide the right chainsaw for nearly any use. Look at your local home store or check online to see if this brand has the right saw for you.
