- Is this saw good enough for cutting firewood?
- It can buck small logs and branches, but it is slow on anything near the bar's full length. For regular firewood cutting, a larger gas or higher-voltage saw is a better fit.
- Does the kit include a battery and charger?
- Yes, the kit version ships with a 20V Max battery and charger. Confirm the exact pack size, since runtime depends heavily on it.
- Will my other DeWalt 20V batteries work?
- Yes, it runs on the DeWalt 20V Max battery platform, so existing packs fit. Larger packs add weight but give longer runtime.
- How does it compare with DeWalt's 60V saws?
- The 60V models cut faster and handle bigger wood, but they are heavier and use a different battery line. This 12-inch saw is the lighter, cheaper-to-own option for small jobs.
- What bar and chain does it use?
- It uses a 12-inch bar with a low-kickback chain sized for this model. Replacements are widely available; match the pitch and gauge listed for the saw.
- Do I need to add bar and chain oil?
- Yes, it has a bar oil reservoir that must be filled and checked before use. Running it dry wears the bar and chain quickly.
- Where is the Dewalt 20-Volt Max 12 in Brushless Cordless Battery Chainsaw Kit cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $306.94, as of our latest check.
