CS1015 specifications

The Black & Decker CS1015 is a versatile and powerful electric chainsaw designed for both professional and home users. It is recognized for its efficiency, ease of use, and robust performance, making it an ideal tool for cutting through branches, logs, and other types of wood with minimal effort.

With a powerful 10 amp motor, the chainsaw delivers a high level of performance that allows users to make quick and clean cuts through tough materials.

Safety is a key consideration in the design of the CS1015.
