Pour couper des chnes de petites tailles trs efficace et batterie trs rsistante contrler frquemment niveau d’huile dans rservoir car il est trs opaque impossible de voir le niveau
Veramente ottima, la uso per potare i frutti e non tornerei mai al motore a scoppio…consiglio di acquistare una seconda batteria da tenere in carica mentre si usa la prima ed alternarle
La qualit non si discute, tutto ben assemblato, con plastiche resistenti, materiali di qualit tutto ben studiato a dovere, purtroppo il paramani davanti funge soltanto per l’appunto da paramani e non anche da arresto di sicurezza come nelle motoseghe pi diffuse. In ogni caso molto ampio, inoltre la sicura con arresto immediato presente sul manico ed necessario tirarla per poter sbloccare il grilletto ed utilizzare di conseguenza la sega.
Come sramatore funziona molto bene Io l’ho preso per portare alcuni alberi di arancio e limone, e sono riuscito a portare a termine il lavoro senza problemi.
Vi do un consiglio:
La motosega arriva assolutamente senza olio, non ce n’ nel serbatoio e non presente nemmeno nella scatola, me ne sarei aspettato sinceramente un boccettino, per me non stato un problema in quanto uso motoseghe da anni e ho la mia tanichetta di olio sempre pronta, ma, nel caso fosse la vostra prima motosega e non aveste olio a portata di mano, potete usare un qualsiasi olio da frittura che avete in casa, non usate oli sintetici, ma soltanto oli naturali, sono andato avanti per anni con olio di semi di girasole senza mai avere problemi, l’importante non utilizzare appunto oli sintetici o minerali. Se non avete l’olio apposito usate olio da frittura.
Spero che questo mio consiglio possa tornarvi utile.
Ist der Ersatz fr meine Elektrokettensge. Reicht mit 30 cm Schnittdicke vllig aus. Top Gert.
berraschend stark.
Perfekt zum aus Asten.
Schnelle Lieferung alles top
Habe mehrere Greenworks Gerte zuhause und einen 4Ah sowie einen 6Ah Akku.
Deshalb fiel fr unseren kleinen Garten die Wahl auf diese Kettensge.whrend black-Friday 2020 habe ich ca. 65 EUR bezahlt.
Im Lieferumfang ist kein kettenl dabei, sodass man das noch dazu kaufen muss. Wobei Rapsl oder Motorl sollten es zu Not auch tun. Die Sge kommt zerlegt an und muss zusammengebaut werden. Das sollte aber kein Problem sein.
Wir haben mit Hilfe der Sge auf unserem Grundstck ein paar alte Obstbume bearbeitet. Die Stammdurchmesser gingen bis 15 cm. Dafr ist diese Sge perfekt.
Sie ist sehr leicht und sehr leise, sodass auch sonntags gearbeitet werden kann. Mit den 6Ah Akku kann man sehr lange arbeiten.
Kann die Sge empfehlen.
Taglia i tronchetti come dice ..va al meglio sul legno vivo pratica nei lavori di giardinaggio un po’ pi brigosi …. un attrezzo elettrico che comunque abbinato con altri da un valido aiuto perch rende tutti i piccoli lavori meno impegnativi ….Amazon ok
Fr alle, die kein Profi im Umgang mit Kettensgen sind, erscheint diese als Sge das ideale Werkzeug. Sie ist nicht zu schwer, aber das Wichtigste ist, dass sie wegen der geringen Kettengeschwindigkeit kaum zum Springen neigt, wenn das Schwert einmal zu forsch angesetzt wird. Ich besa bereits die Billigvariante von Horcura, da war nach sieben Jahren das Plastmaterial so versprdet, dass der Haltebgel abbrach. Aufpassen muss man, dass die Sge nicht berlastet wird, denn dann brennen unter Umstnden Elektronikteile (nicht der Motor) durch. Mit Gefhl lassen sich bis zu 25 cm dicke Stmme zerlegen, ohne dass der Akku zu schnell schlapp macht. Das dauert zwar ein bisschen, aber wer nicht gerade ein ganzes Wldchen sondern nur ein paar Festmeter aufzuarbeiten hat, kann damit zufrieden sein.
I bought this to replace my petrol chainsaw. I wasn’t sure if this would be man enough but he reviews seemed good. It is truely brilliant. So easy to use and definitely powerful enough for even the largest trunks. The instructions for assembly of the chain were not the best. It helped that I had previous experience but I guess you can u tube for help. Lovely piece of ki
Ich verwende seit einigen Jahren Greenworks-Gerte, darunter inzwischen 3 Kettensgen (1 x 80 Volt, 2 x 40 Volt). Der Einsatz der Akkusgen ist vor allem interessant, wo Motorsgen zu laut sind. Mit leistungsstrkeren Motorsgen knnen die Akkusgen nur bedingt mithalten. Die Akkusgen sind aber pflegleichter und um mal schnell einen Ast abzusgen sind sie schneller einsetzbar. Ich verwende die Sgen vorwiegend zur Brennholzaufbereitung. Allerdings habe ich auch schon Baumfllungen damit durchgefhrt. Mit der 80-Volt-Variante habe ich schon mal mit einer Akkuladung 2 Bume mit gut 50 cm Stammdurchmesser gefllt. Mit der hier zu bewertenden Sge habe ich gestern eine Fichte mit ca. 25 cm Stammdurchmesser gefllt. Ich wollte das einfach mal ausprobieren. Fr die Brennholzaufbereitung und gelegentliche Rckschnittarbeiten an strkeren Struchern, aber auch zum gelegentlichen Fllen kleinerer Bume, sind die 40-Volt-Gerte ideal. Die hier zu bewertende Sge ist aufgrund des Aufbaus und des kurzen Schwertes fr Rckschnittarbeiten sehr gut geeignet. Es gibt auch ein 40-Volt-Gert von Greenworks mit grerer Schwertlnge (40 cm) und etwas lngerer Bauform, das ich fr die Brennholzaufbereitung lieber einsetze. Die Akkus sind gleich.
J’ai achet cette trononneuse pour des coupes occasionnelles dans le jardin et je ne suis pas du ! La puissance est suffisante pour mon besoin mais n’attendez pas couper un arbre avec… J’ai achet une batterie supplmentaire et je tiens 30 minutes avec une batterie
The torque is less and chain speed is slower than other wired and petrol saws I’ve used so it cuts best with a light pressure – let the chain do the work. It still gets there. I recently felled three leylandii trees that were about 30cm across.
With that all said it is incredibly easy to use and As long as you use it sensibly, I would not hesitate to recommend. Dropped a star due to the safety points.
Although I’ve given 5stars for ease of use,lightweight and value (in sale) I have a bit of concern about its safety. It’s light weight and switch arrangement makes it easy/tempting to use with one hand. Something one should NOT do. Perhaps more of an issue is that the chain keeps running for a couple of seconds after powering off.

Sgt zuverlssig, auch dickeres Holz. Kettenl luft teilweise aus, Fllstand nicht ablesbar.
Du coup, j’ai la simplicit de l’lectrique (dmarrage trs simple), les batteries se vident certes rapidement, mais avec un jeu de 2, je n’ai pas t gn en alternant les charges.
Bref, je recommande !
The small oil tank lasts just a bit longer than a full charge, you might have to refill it if using the larger 4Ah battery.
This doesn’t have the power of a petrol machine obviously, the chain speed is not as high so the cutting speed is slower. I prefer this as the degree of personal injury possible is somewhat mitigated!
Charging times are quicker than expected but I haven’t measured it yet.
All in a good buy and I intend to buy more compatible outdoor machines in this range
Diese kleine Sge ist der “Hammer”.
Sehr leicht und damit gut zu hndeln; hohe Durchzugskraft auch bei etwas dickerem Material und optisch ein echter Hingucker.
Habe schon einen Akku-Rasenmher von Greenworks, mit dem ich auch sehr zufrieden bin. Die Akkusge hat allerdings alle Erwartungen bertroffen. Bin sehr zufrieden.
v benissimo per uso hobbistico…..unica cosa scomoda il livello olio difficile la vedere perch c’ la plastica dello stesso colore dell’olio
Just use it for the ocasional cutting of big branches in our garden. For this it is perfect. makes life easy.

Excellent battery operated chainsaw. The only gripe is I can’t see the oil level. Probably me.
Habe diese Akkukettensge fr meinen Papa bestellt und er ist sehr zufrieden mit ihr. Er wollte diese haben, da er meinte der Gewichtsmittelpunkt sei optimal fr die Sgearbeiten. Er ist allgemein von den Greenworks Produkten berzeugt.
This is a great lithium ion battery chainsaw. Easy to use, lightweight and good safely features. I now own several Greenworks products from the Gmax range and they are ALL VERY impressive. Thoroughly recommend.
Petite mais fait le job. Utilise pour raccourcir des bches de 33 en 25.
Trs bon produit niveau performances et bruit. Seul bmol pour moi c’est que a manque de scurit, sur d’autre si le gros cache bouge la machine se bloque, il faut donc le repousser. L rien du tout.
Bye bye stale petrol and poor starting.
Bye bye stale petrol and poor starting.
Bonne petite trononneuse, attention la premire utilisation l’huile de chane est longue venir d’o je pense certains commentaires ce sujet. Pour ma part j’ai retir le guide et la chane et fait tourner le moteur jusqu’ ce l’huile sorte par le petit trou puis remontage, la chane est lubrifie.
Geehrter, es tut mir leid, kann ich mommentan kein Kommentar abgeben, da die Maschine zu wenig gebraucht habe…
Mit HG Nicos
PS. Ich weiss nicht wie ein Foto einfgen kann…
Ich kaufte die Sge, weil ich den Akku schon hatte (Rasenmher). Bin sehr zufrieden. Montage war kinderleicht. Luft tadellos. Mein Hauptzweck sind Arbeiten in Haus und Garten (Zaunerrichtung, Fensterbretter basteln, Baumschnitt im Garten…) Die Sge ist wirklich leise fr solch ein Gert und erfllt ihren Zweck sehr gut. Auch ich schliee mich der Meinung an, dass sie natrlich nicht den Durchzug hat wie eine klassische MS aber das habe ich auch nicht erwartet. Ich finde es toll, dass man jederzeit ohne Vorbereitung mit der Arbeit starten kann, nix mitschleppen muss und im Ggsz zu einer elektrischen Sge eben maximal flexibel ist. Auch angenehm ist das leichte Gewicht, weil man nicht so schnell ermdet und natrlich dass die Sge nahezu vibrationsfrei luft. Kettenl tanken nicht vergessen und auf die richtige Kettenspannung achten. (Die Kette soll sich mit 2 Fingern schieben lassen und wenn man sie nach unten vom Schwert wegzieht soll ca 5mm Spiel sein, so dass sie nicht aus der Fhrung hpfen kann, aber auch nicht zu straff draufgeknallt. LG Petz
dmarre immdiatement pas bruyante…..Je suis ravi !
Consigliato a chiunque voglia un motosega comodo,semplice e da utilizzare ogni volta che serve.
Hat logischer Weise nicht die Leistung wie meine 4 PS Stihl, ist aber zum Hochsitzbauen und Wegefreischneiden eine sehr gute Alternative. Man kommt mit einem 4 Ah Akku ziemlich weit. Einziges Manko, man sieht nicht ob Kettenl fehlt, auf Verdacht mal nachschauen und nachfllen.
Article reu ce jour, pas encore test, mais la qualit semble au rendez-vous.
Cette trononneuse 40 volts et trs utile en complment de la dbroussailleuse 40 volts de la mme srie que nous possdons dj.
Nous avons opt pour la 30 cm car la 25 cm semble un peu juste pour les diamtres de bches consquents.
Quant la 40 cm, un peu trop lourde pour les sances de coupe intensives.
Donc, la 30cm est un bon compromis, elle est ni trop lourde, ni trop courte.
Love it ,works a treat , lightweight and cuts some serious logs ,run time of about 30 mins ,would recommend
Ca vite de sortir le gros matos, celui qui ncessite un entretien que je trouve pnible. La trononneuse, le coupe bordure qui refuse de dmarrer , j’ai trop connu cela.
J’ai eu l’occasion en tant que testeur amazon de tester un produit de la gamme. Depuis j’ai achet cette trononneuse, un coupe bordure, un souffleur… Je suis pass du 24v au 40v.
Et plus d’entretien et une grande facilit d’utilisation. Bien sur la puissance est infrieur , mais au final, ca me convie
Quelques dfauts qui empchent la 5me toile :
– si on ne l’applique pas contre le bois elle saute beaucoup
– si on force dans une grosse bche elle s’arrte donc il faut rappuyer sur marche
– on ne voit pas le niveau d’huile donc il faut regarder de temps en temps
Je l’ai essaye avec la batterie Creabest ou Tradeshop et impeccable.
Lgre, et bonne surprise : la partie qui bloque le guide-chaine est en mtal.
its great , not heavy and even I can use it. Even my hard to please hubby likes it better than his heavy petrol model . Nearly got the full set now , pole saw , strimmer , telescopic hedge trimmer , hedge trimmer.. Very impressed I’m going to buy another battery though as all these items are being powered by one battery.
Da man sich ja hier bewusst fr ein akkubetriebenes Gert entscheidet, drfte wohl jedem klar sein, dass man keine Vergleiche mit Benzinsgen anstellen kann.
Die Leistung und Anwendung weicht schon deutlich ab.
Allerdings hat man fr einfache Anwendungen ein Topgert.
Fr mich bot sich der Kauf an, da ich schon einen Rasenmher dieser Marke habe und den Akku zwischen den Gerten tauschen kann.
Ohne vorhanden Akku htte ich wohl eher zur elektrischen Kettensge gegriffen.
Great for a small/medium garden, dont forget to oil!
Top product…
Gets through 12 inch diameter trees no problem. Battery lasts just a few trees of that diameter but charges fast and i could do with a rest anyway, good excuse for a cup of tea.

Fantastic just cut 20ft tree down and cut it all up light easy to use on fully charged 2a battery
Habe nun das Gert seit 3 Jahren im Einsatz und wurde noch nicht enttuscht. Mit einem Ersatzakku ist sogar ein fast durchgngiges Arbeiten mglich. Durch den geringeren Geruschpegel konnte auch am Wochenende gearbeitet werden.
Rezension 1:
War ein wenig skeptisch vor dem Kauf.
Mittlerweile schon einige male im Einsatz. Bin zufrieden. (Hobbygebrauch)
2Ah Akku fr meine “Ausflge” in den Wald ausreichend. Werde mir aber sehr wahrscheinlich einen Ersatzakku besorgen.
Fazit: Empfehlenswe
Excellent lightweight, powerful chainsaw, fine for garden use, cutting up a few logs. Added bonus of no smelly 2 stroke engine, but still enough power to give a petrol version a run for its money. The battery power lasts long enough to do a reasonable amount of cutting, and enjoy a cup of tea while it charges for the next lot. I already had the battery for it from my hedge trimmer, so was pleased to be able to buy it without.
Overall, very pleased with it and would buy again.
Used a number of time and would 100% buy again.
So far I have cut through some 5″ trunks that my hand saw was to awkward to attack and find it very effective and easy to manage.
It is also surprisingly powerful for a battery tool.
The charger and battery are sold separately as they are interchangeable with other tools in the range. Took an hour to charge as stated in the manual.
So for domestic garden use this is a great bit of kit!

This battery powered chainsaw caught my eye. Particularly the price – but of course you soon realise that you also have to factor in the cost of a 40v battery and charger. You will also need chain oil, but then you need that with any chain saw. By the time you have everything you need, you’ll find yourself in the upper price band of budget petrol powered chainsaws being at the thick end of 200.
Construction of the tool is actually pretty solid, though it doesn’t initially inspire confidence being made in a particularly lively shade of lime green, as used in children’s toys. The battery (also green), is the size of a small brick and locks positively into both the charger (green again) and the chainsaw. With the battery inserted the chainsaw remains light and very easy to handle, and is nicely balanced in the hand. The safety and on/off switches are immediately to hand and feel right. Pour in a small amount of chain oil and you’re ready to go. The battery has state of charge lights to give you an idea of how much charge remains. Charge time is about an hour, the charger will stop automatically when fully charged, and as the battery is lithium based there is no memory effect.
So, how does it perform? First job was to clear a recently fallen tree — maximum diameter about 12″ (30.5cm) of very dense heavy wood. The cut was remarkably convincing and fast, particularly as the blade is only 13″ long so a number of joined cuts are needed, with a dozen or so unseasoned logs resulting. I then lopped a 9″ bough from an oak tree — no problem. I worked for another 20 minutes or so cleaning up the original tree and cutting small sections of around 3″ diameter. By this time the initial battery charge was showing down to 25% remaining though, so although the saw was not showing signs of slowing down, the battery was put back on charge while I cleared the debris. By the time I had sorted the cut wood out, the battery was fully charged and ready for use again.
The battery and charger are intended to form the hub from which to power various accessories, of which the saw is just one. The battery is the most expensive part of the concept, so there is certainly the temptation to add more accessories.
However, to me the biggest advantage of this tool is its simple convenience and ease of use. With the charger screwed to my shed wall and plugged into an adjacent power point, the chainsaw itself sits on a hanging screw alongside and, with the battery charged, is ready for instant use. Rather like a cordless drill. No need to find fresh petrol, mix it with two stroke it is just so user friendly!
My only reservation is that which I have with all cordless tools is whether the battery will be up to the job. At the price it should be, and first impressions are encouraging. Time will tell.
Well that review was written three years ago and the saw is still going strong, as is the battery. Pretty pleased with that.

Didn’t want a big bulky loud petrol driven one which I would involve some maintenance. There isn’t many Lithium chainsaws around other than this one, so I went for it.
It is good quality, although a little plasticy. Doesn’t spin as fast as I thought it would, but it cuts through wood easily.
Be sure to wear the proper safety gear!

Brilliant product good powerful machine ideal for occasional user cut hardwoods and conifers with ease ideal around house and garde
Pour information : avec une batterie de 2Ah, l’autonomie est d’environ 30 minutes.
Edit : aprs 6 ans de bons et loyaux services, le carter vient de cder ! Le problme vient de la griffe en plastique ct du porte-lame : il supporte les chocs mais la longue, il cde. Une partie en mtal aurait peut-tre permis de rallonger la dure de vie ? Dommage, elle fonctionnait bien.
The battery is capable of supplying the saw with power for 2-3 barrow loads of logs.
The battery charger is excellent & recharges the battery from flat in 40-45 minutes.
I think this is an excellent product & highly recommend i
I also have the hedge cutter the battery interchanges and has a lot of power does everything I need.
I tend to do my research before purchasing items and I found the prospect of buying a petrol powered chainsaw, frankly daunting ! All that two stoke petrol mixing and sparks plugs….not for me. I thought I would give the product a go and it seemed a reasonable price. But…you have to add the 40V/2Ah Lithium Battery to the cost plus 40V Battery Charger. Oh and you need some chainsaw oil ! I was not deterred and went ahead with the purchase of all four.
The chainsaw arrived and my first impression was that I had made a big mistake, this green plastic bit of kit looked like a toy ! More research on the internet showed that the chainsaw has an Oregon Chain, (like a small bicycle chain that is wrapped around something called a bar and does the cutting) and Oregon Bar. Oregon are makers of excellent cutting chains and bars and so my concerns subsided. Within a few days the battery and charger arrived and I set them up to charge.
The charging time was about 3 hours which I thought was really quick. The chainsaw comes with instructions that are fairly easy to follow and in no time I found how to fill up the small sump with chainsaw oil. This is essential as it lubricates the cutting chain whilst it cuts through the wood.
Please remember to use safety gloves, eye protection and make sure you have no loose clothing that can get in contact with the cutting chain. The instructions will tell you how to hold the chainsaw correctly. The power switch on the handle of the chainsaw incorporates a safety catch but the manufacturers advice is not to carry the tool with the battery locked in place until you get to the place where you are intending to work.
Fitting the battery is a little fiddly but once you know how to do it it’s easy. I also used a work bench to hold the branches and trunks securely.
I have to say I was very impressed with the Greenworks Chainsaw. It is very well balanced to hold and surprisingly powerful and I had no problem cutting trunks of 10 inches in diameter. My task took over two hours and throughout, the battery power was as strong when I finished as when I started. My advice is don’t get impatient with the cutting chain, don’t force it through the wood and it will perform superbly.
One downside is the cutting chain. I understand that the cutting chain can wear out / break and need to be sharpened / replaced. There is some doubt in my mind as to where I can source new chains or get them sharpened. Apparently the Oregon chain used is not a standard North European version but Asian. My research continues but I am still very satisfied.
The battery will fit into a range of other Greenworks garden products so maybe a telescopic hedge cutter next !
