This machine only weighs eleven pounds. So, whether you're big or small, you can operate this tool like you’re a lumberjack, to trim trees, clear brush, stockpile firewood, and perform a number of other tasks in your yard.
Tensioning System
It has a tensioning system and tool free chain replacement with an oversized knob that tensions the chain and secures the bar. It also comes with a patented system of tensioning to prevent over tightening during operation. This helps extend the life of the chain and bar.
No Kickbacks
You won’t have to worry about kickbacks because the built in chain brake keeps the chain from moving when improper contact is made.
Automatic Oiler
If you’re worried about oiling, during operation, the oiler automatically provides constant lubrication to both the chain and bar. It even comes with a six-ounce oil reservoir that also has an oil level indicator. The rear handle has a rubber over mold and the front hand is ergonomic so it provides you the ultimate control and comfort. A quart of chain oil and a scabbard are included in the package.

The pros and cons of the WORX WG303 16-Inch 3.5 HP 14.5 Amp Electric Chain Saw:
PROS:
- Lightweight– it’s not an oversized clunker, so feels good in your hands during operation.
- Cuts powerfully – can do well on tree branches up to 10’’ to 18’’.
- Easy use -- it's as simple as it gets to adjust the blade and monitor and refill the oil.
CONS:
- Doesn’t work well on all conditions -- on wet wood, debris tends to build up under the sprocket cover plate that can make the blade dull more quickly.
- Needs more oil– when you receive it, it needs a bit more oil so just make sure you buy an extra container and don’t only rely on the one that they provide.
- Should include a sharpener in the box -– the blades can get dull under some conditions.
