Parker 45cc Chainsaw Review

[@keithhooper6123]

Have one,it's perfectly good for occasional use.

[@northeastfisherman3214]

Got one of these a few months ago found it a heavy and uncomfortable saw but I must say it's been through some good sized trees without a problem

[@jordanbarnes3490]

Could you do a video to show how to tighten the chain tension? Just bought one second hand and can’t find it

[@diyhandyman2733]

Yep will do. No problem

[@keithhooper6123]

Simple.Loosen chain bar securing bolt,and tighten screw on body of saw,behind bar,retighten securing bolts.

Hows it going a year later?

[@diyhandyman2733]

No problem, engine runs well. Must say only gets used about a few times a month.

I had a parker 58 cc lasted 3 years took a battering amazing value. Thinking of getting this model. Would you recommend

[@SuperDouginator]

Do not use a 40:1 mix if 25:1 is indicated. You will cause gradual cylinder scoring and heat damage until your engine will loose all compression or seize up. Not a good plan

[@diyhandyman2733]

I understand your point, but i ran it at 25:1 and was really smokey, way to rich a mix..... Thats why i run a 40:1 No issues and runs well since purchase. I run all my garden equipment on 40:1

Adjust the mixture screw ! Don’t put less oil in

[@diyhandyman2733]

@@SuperDouginator mixture screw ? its pre - mixed there is no mixture screw.
