Choosing the Right Chainsaw

Petrol Chainsaws

Petrol chainsaws remain the preferred choice for farmers, contractors and anyone regularly cutting large volumes of timber. They offer excellent power, long run times and are ideal for felling trees, cutting firewood and clearing storm damage.

Battery Chainsaws

Battery chainsaws are becoming increasingly popular thanks to their quiet operation, low maintenance requirements and instant starting. They are ideal for homeowners, lifestyle blocks and general property maintenance.

Chainsaws for Firewood

Choosing the right chainsaw for firewood depends on the size of timber being cut. Smaller chainsaws are perfect for occasional use, while larger models are better suited to processing bigger logs and regular firewood preparation.

Chainsaws for Farm & Lifestyle Blocks

A quality chainsaw is an essential tool for many New Zealand farms and lifestyle properties. Whether you're maintaining shelter belts, clearing fallen branches or preparing winter firewood, the right chainsaw helps get the job done efficiently.

Don't forget to keep your chainsaw performing at its best with quality chainsaw parts, bars, chains and tools. Regular maintenance helps improve performance, extend the life of your chainsaw and ensure safer operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What chainsaw is best for firewood?

For most homeowners, farmers and lifestyle block owners, a 14–18 inch chainsaw is a great option for cutting firewood and general property maintenance.

Are battery chainsaws as good as petrol chainsaws?

Battery chainsaws are quiet, easy to use and low maintenance, making them great for pruning, small firewood jobs and property maintenance. Petrol chainsaws are still best for heavy-duty cutting and professional use.

What safety gear should I use with a chainsaw?

We recommend wearing chainsaw chaps, gloves, safety boots, eye protection, hearing protection and a helmet when operating a chainsaw.

How often should I sharpen my chainsaw chain?

You should sharpen your chain when cutting performance drops, the saw starts producing fine sawdust instead of wood chips, or you need to push harder than usual through timber.
