Makita UC3551A Electric Chainsaw 350mm 240v UC3551A/2

This 240V variant of the Makita UC3551A Electric Chainsaw is powered by a robust 2000 watt motor, making it ideal for standard mains power applications in domestic, commercial, and light industrial settings. The higher wattage provides excellent cutting power for tackling demanding tasks such as felling small trees, processing firewood, and heavy-d... moreuty pruning work. The longitudinal motor configuration reduces the overall width of the chainsaw body, enabling you to manoeuvre effectively in restricted spaces between branches or when working close to structures. The automatic chain oiling system and improved oil pump ensure consistent lubrication delivery regardless of ambient temperature or oil viscosity, protecting the chain and bar from premature wear whilst maintaining optimal cutting performance. Equipped with comprehensive safety features including an electronic current limiter that protects the motor from overload damage, electric chain brake, and kickback brake, this chainsaw prioritises operator safety without compromising performance. The ergonomic soft grip handles and spike grips provide secure, comfortable control during extended cutting sessions. Features and Benefits: • New adjustment lever for easier adjustment of chain tension • Longitudinal motor provides greater manoeuvrability • Improved oil pump keeps the delivery of chain oil constant regardless of temperature and oil viscosity • Ergonomic soft grip • Spike grips work-piece firmly to provide more control • Oil fill level window • Soft start • Torque limiter • Electric chain brake • Double Insulation • Automatic chain oiling • Kickback brake • Electronic current limiter for overload protection Specifications: Chain Oil Capacity: 200 ml (cm³) Chain Gauge: 0.050 " Chain Pitch: 3/8 " Chain Speed: 14.5 m/sec Bar Size: 35 cm Noise sound pressure: 90.8 dB(A) Noise sound power: 101.8 dB(A) Noise K factor: 2.5 dB(A) Input Wattage (240v): 2000 w Vibration K factor: 1.5 m/sec² Vibration Right Handle (Rear grip): 3.9 m/sec² Vibration Left Handle (Front grip): 5.2 m/sec² Net weight: 5.4 - 5.7 kg Contents: • UC3551A/2 Electric Chainsaw • Guide bar • Saw chain • Guide bar cover • 10m lead • Hook complete

Cons

Powerful electric saw for construction and household work in the house and on the site
2 May 2017 
A chainsaw is a good thing, but it is not always possible to use it in construction or in a workshop. The exhaust of a gasoline engine is not the most pleasant thing, but in a limited volume it is still quite toxic, so you can use it without restrictions only in the open air. There is only one way out of this situation - a chain saw with an electric motor. Yes, such saws have their drawbacks, but if we take not some nameless China, but normal well-known brands, then they will be minimized.
This is one of the most powerful electric saws, that is, in this indicator it is not inferior to the average power of chainsaws. The tyre is long, 400 millimeters, it is convenient and easy to work with it. The chain is good quality and cuts great. Soft woods, the same pine beams, half almost effortlessly. But at the same time, the noise is an order of magnitude less than when using a gasoline saw. Well, problems with refueling, of course, there are no problems either. But the oil reservoir is in place, sliding the chain on the tyre still requires small amounts of lubrication. It is spent sparingly, regular 200 ml ends approximately by the end of the second hour of work.
Still, tying to an outlet is the biggest limitation of a power saw. Yes, you can throw an extension of the desired length, I myself made one for gardening. It took 25 meters of cable with a millimeter cross section and double PVC insulation plus a set of plug-socket and half an hour of time. But this cable bay weighs well, and it always gets underfoot.
You can work anywhere the extension cord reaches.

I've been using it for almost a year, sawed over 40m³ of wood, mostly pine and oak, satisfied with the tool.
The power is sufficient, it’s convenient that there's no need to deal with gasoline, which makes it quieter in operation and there's no exhaust fumes. The oil supply is adjustable, and it has a reliable and convenient chain tensioning and bar clamping mechanism. For home use, the power and resource of this saw are more than enough with a great margin. When you take it in your hands, you immediately feel the quality of Makita.
