I'll tell you what you don't want to use, Regular Gas. I bought a brand new Echo Chainsaw because they are easy to start and I used my saw twice and loved it but during the winter I left it with gas in it as I had intended to use it in the winter and never got to it. Well in the spring on my first use, it seized and I was told that because I used regular gas the warranty was voided,so beware.
All internal combustion powered chainsaws utilize 2 strokers, exclusively. They are rugged, inexpensive, lightweight with a high power to weight ratio, and deliver more consistent power than 4 strokers. Also, 2 strokers can be operated in any position, including upside down for extended periods, without endangering the motor, or imposing excessive wear and tear on the same. All of which are essential for chainsaws. While 4 strokers don't necessarily need to be kept upright at all times while running, operating them upside down for more than short periods, could put the mill in jeopardy, as a result of lubricating oil being forced from the crankcase into the combustion chamber. For those reasons, 2 strokers are necessary for powering chainsaws.
You can put the unit in a storage container. But I have not heard of a saw without full protection as it lays on the ground. Children should be taught safety and thus should not be messing with a saw.
A high quality chain is supplied with the saw. Replacement chains can be purchased at most hardware or outdoor supply stores
Buy one, no saw should be stored without a good case.
Made out of rubber it's a prop saw
No primer bulb. 2 pulls with chokeout. then choke in and start. If doesnt start after 3 pulls, repeat. usually goes 1st or 2nd time in 50+ degree temp.
Changing the chain is easy.
Mine weighed in at around 16 lbs with a full tank of fuel, full oil tank, and 20" bar and chain on it.
I have ran a 27” bar on mine. It did slow it down slightly though.
