62cc Petrol Chainsaw - 20” Bar & 2 x Chains + More

I have left it a year to write this review, as I can’t see the point of a review until a product has been tested. Well I have tested this big time! I used to have an ex-Forestry -Commission professional Husqvarna chain saw, which served me well, but finally died. In June last year, I had a massive bough, from an equally massive oak tree come down, which covered an area the size of a tennis court, and was 36 inches diameter at the fractured end. I urgently needed a large powerful chain saw, saw this, and thought at that price I will be happy if it lasts as long as required to finish the job. I was impressed from the start. The product was well packaged, arrived promptly, and looked and felt very good quality. It even came with a clear colour handbook, in proper English. Easy to assemble, it fired up first time, and over the next few months I set about my task. I used both chains, sharpening both twice, before discarding, and buying a further 2 chains (£6 each). In all the time I was using the saw, if fired up every time cold or hot, something my Husqvarna baulked at! If I had to move some logs, I didn’t mind stopping the saw, in the knowledge that it would start on the first light pull. The saw cut like a hot knife through butter, and when it came to the trunk, I really had to put it to the test, having to cut through from both sides, because even the 20 inch bar could only reach half way through. I had a few mishaps, requiring the use of a heavy jack to free up the saw, but each time, it came out unscathed. After all this work, apart from the paint worn off the cutter-bar, the saw looks, sounds, and works as good as new. This is a very good quality product in its own right. For the price, it is ridiculously good value for money. I would buy another one tomorrow, but I don’t have to, because mine’s still perfect.

Bought one based on other reviews, can say with certainty, this is a good buy. A little bit of assembly required out of the box but nothing severe, and if you are practical enough to use a chainsaw then it shouldn't be any problem. Read the manual first, it's not something I do normally, but I did on this occasion, fuel it and oil it according to the manual. Mine started up on the third pull from cold and for the first time out of the box. Great machine, cuts a foot diameter log with no problem, it's not heavy, it's well balanced and it's good on fuel. It's about average size for a chainsaw. Supplied with two chains, a toolkit, fuel bottle and a not altogether very high quality bag to store it, but it serves its purpose. This machine competes with the better makes like husqvarna, which I have used but prefer the Parker. From hot, this saw starts first time, just be sure to check the chain tension after first use because the chains stretch a bit. Can't fault it for this money, not expensive, and the manual is written in understandable English, but then again I think the Parker brand is a UK company anyway even if the saws made abroad.

Good value chainsaw with a big, powerful engine. This means that it's quite heavy and probably not ideal for small pruning jobs. But it cuts through wood like butter and so you need to follow all safety rules! Small point: it uses a 25/1 oil to petrol mix, unlike many two stroke engines which are 40/1.

Absolute beast of a saw! Took down a massive conifer with no problems. Easy to put the saw together. Starts easily and cuts a lot of wood on one tank of petrol. Is scary to use at first and have to treat it with respect. My first chainsaw and most likely will last me years. Only used it to cut 2 conifers down and got it stored in my garage now. Was quite a bit cheaper to buy back in 2018. Even at today's price it's a quality saw.

I bought this to deal with a large tree branch that had fallen into our garden. It arrived quickly, was simple to assemble and after following the clear instructions it started first time. I was able to reduce the branch into a large pile of logs with the greatest of ease. One thing that wasn't clear to me at first, but after I worked it out it should have been obvious and that was how to tension the chain during use. The instructions explain how to tension the chain at the assembly stage but I didn't realize that to do it each time the clutch cover retaining bolts have to be slackened off, the chain adjusted and the nuts retightened. Basics really! It comes with a good quality carrying bag, chain guard, two chains, a fuel mixing bottle, a DVD as well as a instruction manual and a neat tool kit with everything needed to carry out simple adjustments and maintenance on the saw. It doesn't come with any chain oil in the reservoir and fully synthetic two stroke oil is recommended. Both of these I also bought from Amazon. The mixing bottle has clear increments for the petrol/oil mix which is in the ratio of 25-1. One full bottle of fuel mix completely fills the fuel tank. I was considering hiring a chain saw for this task but for the money I paid, £89.95, I think it's an absolute bargain, in fact the price belies the quality of this saw and I'm sure it will give good service.

I bought this chainsaw because the Einhell chainsaw I owned previously was almost unusable it was so difficult to start and impossible to restart if you had to stop it for any reason to move logs etc. It actually cost me about £20 more than this one as well! This chainsaw on the other hand starts unbelievably easily! Choke on & 2 pulls on the assisted starter cord (which is a total joy to use compared to standard pull starts I've been used to before, really saves the stress on your elbows!) Then *always* turn choke off and pull again once or twice and it's started from cold! I was terrified of turning it off at first following my Einhell experience but I found usually just 1-2 pulls with no choke restarted it immediately! Was also impressed with the build quality for the price. To those who claim the chainsaw wouldn't cut butter I suggest they might check they put the chain on the right way round lol! :-D Also the bumper *is* included, you'll find it in the tool kit! Other things that I like are the large fuel and chain oil tank that the Einhell also was lacking! I will continue to use the saw and update this if I run into any major issues but first impressions are very good, so far I'd totally recommend! :-) *** UPDATE - Having used the saw for a week or so now I've got through both of the chains which both blunted quite quickly and were prone to stretching and required tightening often. The saw is still fantastic though, I'd recommend buying a 76 link Rotatech chain to go with this saw to make it operate at its finest! :-) ***

I returned the chainsaw because it wouldn't work. The excuses I got from Parker Products kept being changed each time. They wouldn't admit that the saw was faulty but kept 'passing the Buck'. First they said that they made it operate after the second pull. They then said that they couldn't find the box. They said that I didn't let them have the tracking number but I gave them all the information from Hermes who transported the saw. Finally, they said it was delivered to some woman who lived three miles down the road. On the box were two labels clearly showing my address and that of the recipient. As I pointed out, Hermes wouldn't take the box until their label was attached and as I said, they can read their own labels. I have had a lot of trouble with Parker Products over this chainsaw who keep trying to put the blame on me because I couldn't get it to work. I hate to say this but I am sure that they are looking at every possible excuse to avoid the blame and therefore make the customer pay for any expenses. They initially said that if they don't find that there is nothing wrong with the saw then the onus is on me. I have had a number of emails from Parker and each one has a different reason for the saw not working. They said that it worked after two pulls and then said that they couldn't find the box. They then said that it was sent to the wrong address when there were two address labels, covered in cellotape, on the box. My message is BEWARE.

We have more than 5 chainsaws. 3 or which are Stihl and are always breaking down and cost a fortune to get fixed,. They also never seem to start properly and always cut out. We bought some cheap saws (Parker & Mitox) and they seem to be much easier to start and run and haven't broken down yet. It wouldn't be worth getting them repaired if they did break as they are so cheap. Last April I cut up this full fallen tree in one day and it was nearly all done with the Parker . I'm not sure what brand of chain they are supplied with but it must be good as it lasted the whole day

Pas cher mais pas fiable

Ottima motosega considerando il prezzo molto basso. Mi è stata consigliata da chi di mestiere fa il taglia legna nelle selve, perché per l'uso che ne faccio io, circa 40/50 ore l'anno è perfetta. Certo che se dovete usarla 6 ore al giorno 7 giorni su sette non è l'articolo che fa per voi. L'unica cosa che ho dovuto cambiare subito è la catena, perché quella di serie è di bassa qualità. In dotazione ha la borsa protettiva da viaggio, la boccetta tarata per fare il pieno di miscela con la giusta quantità di olio, le chiavi per smontarla, e due catene. Io, su consiglio, ho comprato una catena rotatek e mi trovo benissimo. L'avvio a freddo è molto rapido e facile. Basta tirare l'aria, sei spinte nella pompetta della benzina , due tirate di cinghia, staccare l'aria, accendere l'interruttore e vedrete che al primo colpo parte!!! Sorprendente. Devo dire che in futuro quando si guasta, ne ricomprero' certamente un'altra, perché è un ottima motosega non professionale, e per i soldi che costa non conviene neanche aggiustarla ma comprarne una nuova.

Die 62ccm Motorsäge hier von Parker (baugleich mit vielen weiteren 62ccm Sägen, wie beispielsweise Timberpro, SGS, u.v.m.) ist für den Preis alle 5 Sterne wert. 1.) Auspacken, zusammenbauen (Sägeschiene und Schwert müssen montiert werden, sowie die Anschlagkralle). 2.) Lieferumfang: Werkzeug, 2. Kette, Tasche, Schwertschutz, Mischflasche, alles vollständig und komplett. Der Vergasereinstell-Schraubenzieher hat einen Hartplastikgriff, der sicher nicht lange halten wird, alles andere ist ok. 3.) Voreingestellte Grundeinstellung des Motors war leicht ins "Fette" hinein, was für die Einlaufprozedur eines neuen Motors genau richtig war. Handbuch liegt nur in Englisch bei, braucht aber kein Mensch, der etwas Erfahrung mit Sägen (oder Zweitaktmotoren generell) hat. Nach der Befüllung mit den Betriebsstoffen folgte der Ersteinsatz. Erster Start brauchte ein paar Seilzüge mehr, danach aber immer zügiges Starten und guter Rundlauf. Aufgrund des 20" Schwertes sind auch dickere Stämme kein Problem. Die zu Beginn noch etwas fettere Gemischeinstellung lässt die Säge noch nicht die volle Leistung entfalten, aber selbst unter diesen Bedingungen war die Schnittleistung bereits ordentlich. Die Maschine hat "nur" 3,6PS bei einem üppigen Hubraum von 62ccm. Das ist nicht viel, aber für die 325-er Kette ausreichend und lässt dafür im Gegenzug auf eine lange Lebensdauer des Motors hoffen. Die Verarbeitung ist anständig, die Haltbarkeit der Kunststoffe kann man erst nach Jahren beurteilen, es ist aber kein "Billigplastik" verbaut. Die Ergonomie ist ok, die Griffe liegen gut in der Hand, die Gewichtsverteilung ist ebenfalls ok. Ein Klemmer beim Schneiden und das danach notwendige etwas festere Zupacken, um die Säge herauszuziehen, macht ihr nichts aus. Die mitgegebenen Ketten sind handelsübliche Stahlketten in so genannter Halbmeißel-Bauart, die ich qualitativ ins Mittelfeld einordnen würde. Gestern habe ich eine komplette Tankfüllung lang gefällte Bäume in Blöcke unterteilt. Dabei waren Schnitte auch in vom Rücken verschmutzten Holz erforderlich und nach dieser Prozedur (Stämme mit Brusthöhendurchmesser über 80cm dabei) war die Kette noch nicht stumpf. Die Ketten sind also definitiv keine Billigware, sondern ok. Für mich soll die Parker Säge 2 inzwischen betagte Profisägen ergänzen und es sieht danach aus, dass es eine gute Entscheidung war. Nach einem Tag Profieinsatz im Starkholz kann ich der Säge keinen gravierenden Mangel nachsagen, im Gegenteil, das Arbeiten mit dem Gerät geht gut von der Hand. Die Leistungsdichte des Motors ist im Verhältnis zum Hubraum niedrig, aber mit der 325-er Teilung kommt die Säge gut zurecht. Der Motor ist drehfreudig und keinesfalls träge. Die Fliehkraftkupplung rutscht bei niedrigerer Drehzahl etwas früh durch, aber das würde eich nicht als Mangel betrachten. Die 5 Sterne verdient sie deshalb zu Recht, denn der außerordentlich günstige Preis kommt ja noch obendrauf. Fazit nach fast zwei Jahren: sie sagt immer noch ...

Ottimo prodotto, in particolare per l'eccellente qualità/prezzo. Montata con molta facilità. Accensione senza nessuna difficoltà. Utilizzata per tagliare tronchi di 50 cm di diametro senza nessun particolare sforzo. Potente e precisa. In generale i materiali che la compongono sono di buona qualità, nulla da invidiare alle motoseghe di marche più blasonate. Unica pecca, se così può essere definita, riguarda il manuale che l'accompagna, il quale contiene "il minimo sindacale", un pò scarno di istruzioni, in particolare sulla manutenzione. Problema superato facendo riferimento alle informazioni attinte da recenzioni e video di settore presenti numerosi sul web. Molto soddisfatto dell'acquisto. Consigliatissima!

Eine sehr gut Kettensäge! Durchzugsstark und springt sehr gut an! Hab damit bereits 15 fm Buchenholz damit geschnitten und kann eigentlich nichts schlechtes an der Kettensäge finden. Vielleicht etwas schwer, aber damit kann man leben. Klare Kaufempfehlung!
