Some people may wonder what is the best type of chainsaw to use, with both electric or gasoline-powered units readily available. There are many benefits to using a gasoline-powered chainsaw versus using an electric-powered one. Here are a few of them in regards to a Cub Cadet Chainsaw.
1. Gas-powered chainsaws have far more power than electric chainsaws. The additional torque and cutting power a gas-powered chainsaw provides is a definite advantage for people that need to clear large areas or a large total number of trees.
2. Gas-powered chainsaws are more portable than are their electric counterparts. With a gasoline chainsaw, there is no need to worry about having to find a power source or electrical outlet. Gasoline-powered chainsaws are perfect for jobs that require lengthy travel or that take place deep in the woods where electricity is obviously not a realistic consideration.
3. There is considerable less kickback with gasoline chainsaws than with electric models. This is a very real danger when working in close quarters with tree limbs at high heights or in locales that have dense brush. It is also dangerous when working in close proximity with other people. When it comes to chainsaws, safety is the first concern that should be considered.
4. Gas-powered chainsaws are far safer than electric chainsaws as there is not a cord to deal with. A tangled cord while operating a chainsaw can be a significant safety hazard not only to the operator but to people in the vicinity of the operator of the chainsaw. Cords can result in trips, falls, and other similar accidents. Also, with electric chainsaws there always a risk of accidentally cutting the cord resulting in electrocution or in having a frayed cord that can result in unpleasant shocks. This is obviously not something that would be wanted while operating a chainsaw while high in a tree.
