Rear-handle felling and wood-cutting chainsaws

Rear-handle felling and wood-cutting chainsaws identify a category of machines designed for tree felling and medium- to large-diameter wood cutting operations. Their classification as felling chainsaws derives from the presence of the rear handle, a configuration that ensures a stable and well-balanced grip during cutting phases, even on large-section trunks. This construction solution promotes better control of the machine during ground work, making chain advancement more regular and precise.

The cutting system consists of a guide bar and chain, elements that determine cutting quality and cutting speed in wood. Depending on the chosen configuration, power supply can be fuel mixture, single-phase electric, or battery-powered, allowing selection of the most suitable machine for the operating context. Chainsaws intended for felling are often combined with medium to long guide bars, ideal for working on large-diameter trunks, with a chain pitch specifically designed for structural wood cutting.

From a construction standpoint, the machine structure directly affects strength and long-term durability. Models with a plastic structure are lighter and suitable for non-professional applications, while those with a magnesium structure offer a superior combination of mechanical strength and reduced weight, typical of professional chainsaws. Devices such as the quick chain tensioner and tool-free chain removal system allow faster adjustment and routine maintenance operations, reducing machine downtime.

Rear-handle chainsaws are therefore intended for usage levels ranging from advanced hobbyist to professional and industrial, where high performance, work continuity, and cutting precision are required.

On AgriEuro, rear-handle chainsaws for tree felling and cutting can be selected based on numerous technical features, making it possible to identify the model best suited to actual operating needs. The available configurations allow careful evaluation of structural components, power supply system, and cutting assembly, elements that directly affect performance, cutting precision, and long-term operating continuity. Analysis of technical specifications helps guide the choice toward machines suitable for hobbyist, semi-professional, or professional contexts.

• Guide bar: the standard guide bar is suitable for wood cutting and tree felling, providing stable cutting progression on large-diameter trunks; the carving bar is designed for pruning and precision work, thanks to its narrower profile and reduced tip that allows greater control during cutting phases.
• Power supply: fuel mixture power uses a 2-stroke engine and is typical of chainsaws intended for structural wood cutting; the single-phase version operates on 230V household current and is suitable where electrical power is available; battery-powered models use rechargeable batteries and reduce noise and vibration during operation.
• Quick chain tensioner: this system allows chain tension adjustment without removing the cover, simplifying periodic checks and maintaining consistent cutting efficiency over time.
• Tool-free chain removal: the quick-release knob allows guide bar and chain removal without tools, making cleaning and replacement of cutting components easier.
• Structure: the plastic structure reduces overall machine weight and is typical of non-professional models; the magnesium structure offers greater mechanical strength and improved heat dissipation, features required in professional applications.
• Guide bar length: length ranges from 14 to over 50 cm; shorter bars are suitable for pruning and may have a classic or carving profile, while longer bars are paired with two-hand grips and are suitable for felling and cutting large-section trunks.
• Chain pitch: the 1/4" pitch is suitable for precision pruning cuts; 3/8" is used on low-power machines such as hobbyist models or electric chainsaws; .325" is designed for wood cutting and felling operations.
• Net weight: weight ranges from 1.6 to 6.5 kg and includes the machine body and cutting assembly; lower values promote handling and control, while higher weights are associated with more robust structures and higher-performance engines.

Rear-handle chainsaws are designed for operations that require stability during cutting, control of the cutting assembly, and operational continuity on medium- to large-sized wood. The rear handle provides a firm grip and balanced weight distribution, features that make these machines suitable for structured cutting and felling tasks.

• Tree felling: the presence of medium to long guide bars and chain pitches dedicated to cutting allows work on large-diameter trunks with regular advancement and progressive cutting.
• Wood cutting and sectioning: the combination of fuel-powered engines, a robust cutting assembly, and an adequate machine structure allows accurate sectioning of trunks and logs.
• Firewood preparation: the use of standard guide bars and chains designed for wood cutting promotes uniform output when reducing trunks into evenly sized pieces.
• Forestry and agricultural operations: in rural or woodland environments, rear-handle chainsaws allow continuous work thanks to a configuration designed for ground operation on uneven surfaces.

These machines are suitable for hobbyist, semi-professional, professional, and industrial usage levels, depending on construction features and performance. Entry-level models are intended for hobbyist and semi-professional use, while versions with magnesium structures and higher-performance engines are designed for frequent and continuous professional applications.

Rear-handle felling and wood-cutting chainsaws are designed for structured wood operations, where work continuity, cutting control, and solid construction are required. Their technical configuration meets the needs of those working on large trees and trunks.

• Rear handle: promotes a stable grip during ground cutting and allows more precise control of chain advancement on large-diameter trunks.
• Dedicated cutting assembly: the combination of a standard guide bar and a chain pitch specific for cutting allows uniform progression through wood with consistent cutting output.
• Wide choice of power supply: availability of fuel mixture, single-phase electric, or battery-powered versions allows selection of the most suitable machine for the operating context and work frequency.
• Solutions for quick maintenance: the quick chain tensioner and tool-free chain removal reduce the time required for adjustments and routine cleaning operations.
• Different structures for different work levels: the plastic structure is suitable for limited use, while the magnesium structure meets the needs of frequent and continuous work thanks to higher mechanical strength.
• Range of weights and guide bar lengths: availability of guide bars from 14 to over 50 cm and different weights allows the machine to be matched to the type of wood and duration of operations.
