Why does chainsaw smoke when cutting wood?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We easily forget all the heavy work we do with our chainsaws. All the ripping and cutting can have a great impact on our chainsaw, even the best of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your chainsaw may develop some fault or that might cause the release of smoke from its parts on regular use. This situation can slow down your chainsaw performance, efficiency and speed. This will also reduce the quality of finished products made due to bad cutting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When your chain saw suddenly develops this fault, it can be confusing, especially when you are not sure whether it is normal for chain saws to smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By the end of this blog post, you will understand why your chain saw suddenly starts releasing smoke and how you can resolve this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you notice smoking while cutting with your chain saw, it is crucial to look out for some possible causes. Your chainsaw can smoke when cutting due to a variety of reasons. The smoke can be a sign of overheating, too much oil in the fuel mix, a blunt saw blade or poor lubrication<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you notice smoke coming out from any of your chain saw parts. Try finding out the cause of the smoke by checking where the smoke comes from. The source of the smoke determines the best way to solve the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When your chainsaw releases smoke from the chain, it is a sign that it is generating too much friction when wood cutting<\/a>. This usually starts after cutting for a while.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The excess heat generated might burn the sawdust causing the chainsaw to smoke,\u00a0 or in the case of wet woods, it could be from the water evaporating from the wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the chainsaw exhaust emits black smoke, it’s usually because the chainsaw mix has too much oil in it. Most chain saw manufacturers employ the 1.50 oil\/fuel mix ratio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You are bound to face some chainsaw smoking problems if your oil-fuel ratio is not well balanced according to the measurement specified by your manufacturer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n To fix this, you should drain your fuel tank and refill with the correct mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\nChainsaw’s Chain<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
