The other reason I would add for novices is leaving the chain brake on after starting the saw. This will burn the clutch drum and cause smoking very quickly. If you do that, don’t feel bad - we’ve all done it at one time or another.

My Ecoworks chainsaw started doing this on the second cut. I thought all the smoke was coming from the motor. But then I read somewhere that it’s just the bar cutting wood and was normal. Then it started throwing sparks, which really scared me, especially as we’re in a drought situation and burn ban here. I’ve been checking the oil, but maybe it’s clogged. I think it’s time to take it to a repair shop. I don’t know why this is happening on a nearly brand new chainsaw that really hasn’t gotten that much use.

Lmaoo wtf , I put the chainsaw the wrong way thanks my guy .s/o from Texas 🤘🏾

[@johnstanco7945]

The whole time I had the chain reversed. He said that was the dumbest mistake 🤪

[@thetimberlandinvestor]

Ha ha, we've all done it.
