Great little saw for hand pruning where a normal chainsaw would be awkward or heavy. Makes it easy to use a ladder to trim without the worry about the safety of trying to use a chainsaw one handed. Best for cutting green or recently dead branches. Uses your larger capacity Makita batteries for extra work. The supplied batteries do fit Makita appliances but not the Makita charger. The supplied charger is adequate but not fast charge but the 2 batteries will give you plenty of work. Attention will have to be paid to regularly oiling the chain as there is no chain oil reservoir. My solution is a little dish with oil in & dip the chain tip in when working dry timber. An oil squirter /oil can would work well for this. Excellent product for the price considering the versatility of using Makita batteries & the 2 supplied. JohnRead full review

I've just come in from using the saw. It goes through thickness of 5cm with ease, probably bigger too if I'd tried. Battery seemed to last ages, well over thirty minutes. The timber was wattle, guava, dead iron bark, paper bark. I struggled with holding lantana and cutting, it cut well but my grip was not very secure to stopping the vibration, which I don't think is good for any saw! After all that - I LOVE IT :)
