When limbing thick branches you should use the same approach as for cutting.

Cut difficult branches piece by piece.

Cutting

WARNING! Never attempt to cut logs while

!they are in a pile or when a couple of logs are lying together. Such procedures drastically increase the risk of kickback which can result in a serious or fatal injury.

If you have a pile of logs, each log you attempt to cut should be removed from the pile, placed on a saw horse or runners and cut individually.

Remove the cut pieces from the cutting area. By leaving them in the cutting area, you increase the risk for inadvertently getting a kickback, as well as increasing the risk of losing your balance while working.

The log is lying on the ground.There is little risk of the chain jamming or the object splitting. However there is a risk that the chain will touch the ground when you finish the cut.

Cut all the way through the log from above. Avoid letting the chain touch the ground as you finish the cut. Maintain full throttle but be prepared for what might happen.

If it is possible (can you turn the log?) stop cutting about 2/3 of the way through the log.

Turn the log and finish the cut from the opposite side.

The log is supported at one end. There is a high risk that it will split.

Start by cutting from below (about 1/3 of the way through).

Finish by cutting from above so that the two cuts meet.

The log is supported at both ends. There is a high risk that the chain will jam.

Start by cutting from above (about 1/3 of the way through).

Finish by cutting from below so that the two cuts meet.

CS 2145S, CS 2141S specifications

The Jonsered CS 2141S and CS 2145S chainsaws are powerful tools designed for both professional and avid hobbyist woodworkers. Known for their robust construction and efficient performance, these chainsaws embody reliability and advanced technology, making them ideal for a variety of cutting tasks.

One of the standout features of the Jonsered CS 2141S and CS 2145S is their powerful engines. The CS 2141S is equipped with a 40.9cc engine, while the CS 2145S boasts a slightly more powerful 45.7cc engine. This difference in engine size translates to enhanced cutting performance, allowing users to tackle larger logs and more demanding jobs with ease. Both models deliver excellent power-to-weight ratios, ensuring that users can work for extended periods without excessive fatigue.

These models also incorporate advanced technologies that elevate their functionality. One notable innovation is the X-Torq engine, which reduces fuel consumption and emissions. This is particularly beneficial for environmentally conscious users, as it helps lessen the ecological footprint without compromising on power or performance. Additionally, the effective anti-vibration system minimizes the impact of vibrations on the user, enhancing comfort and control during operation.

Another key characteristic of the CS 2141S and CS 2145S is their ease of use and maintenance. The Quick Release Air Filtration system allows for efficient cleaning and replacement, ensuring that the engine performs at its best. Furthermore, the chain brake feature provides added safety by automatically stopping the chain in the event of kickback, making these chainsaws safer to operate.

Both models are designed for versatility, featuring adjustable oil pumps that allow users to regulate the flow of bar and chain oil for improved lubrication and extended chain life. The ergonomically designed handles offer optimal grip and control, which is essential for precision cutting.

In summary, the Jonsered CS 2141S and CS 2145S chainsaws are powerful and efficient tools equipped with advanced technologies that promote ease of use, safety, and environmental sustainability. Whether for professional forestry work or home woodcutting projects, these models are reliable choices that deliver outstanding performance and durability.
