Makita 16 in. 42 cc Chain Saw

The Makita® 16-Inch 42cc Chain Saw features an industrial-strength, two-sided magnesium crank case that provides lower weight and more durability than comparable aluminum models, resulting in a power-to-weight ratio that provides consistent performance. The two-stroke gasoline engine has a 3 horsepower power rating, spring-assisted starter with low spark coil that greatly reduces the force required for ignition, and primer pump for convenient cold starting. The Makita mid-sized chain saw's housing features a two-point durable chain brake and tool-less filter access for easier maintenance. The smooth, rounded exterior surfaces maximize comfort during use. Other features on this Makita compact chain saw include a single-stop switch, fleece air filter with two-piece cover, large metal spike bar for increased productivity, and reversible sprocket nose bar with oil-retaining feature for improved chain lubrication. The chain pitch and gauge are 3/8 inches and .050 inches, respectively, while the standard guide bar is 16 inches. The engine on the Makita 16-inch 42cc chain saw has a maximum speed of 13,500 rpm, a fuel tank capacity of 16.2 ounces, and an oil tank capacity of 9.5 ounces.
