Use the correct fuel
Check with the lender to ensure you use the right type of petrol and refuel the chainsaw properly.Ensure proper lubrication
The chain requires oil for lubrication, and some models may also need engine oil. Confirm the requirements with the lender.Check the chain tension
The chain should not be too tight against the guide bar, as this can cause overheating and excessive wear.Replace a dull chain
If the chain becomes blunt, replace it with a sharp one. A dull chain increases the risk of overheating and makes cutting inefficient.Only use the chainsaw for wood
Chainsaws are designed for cutting trees and branches—do not use them on other materials.
