    Why Chicago Electric 67255 won't start?
    • G
      Gina MartinezAug 10, 2025
      The Chicago Electric Chainsaw might not start due to several reasons: the power cord might not be properly connected, there may be no power at the outlet, the tool’s thermal reset breaker might have tripped, or there could be internal damage or wear. To address this, first, check that the cord is securely plugged in and that the outlet has power. If the outlet is unpowered, turn off the tool and check the circuit breaker. If the breaker is tripped, ensure the circuit has the correct capacity for the tool and no other loads are present. If equipped, turn off the tool and allow it to cool completely before restarting the motor. If none of these steps work, have a qualified technician service the tool.

      Monica GrantAug 16, 2025
      If your Chicago Electric Chainsaw is overheating, it could be due to several factors. You might be forcing the tool to work too fast, the cutting accessory could be dull or damaged, the motor housing vents might be blocked, or the motor could be strained by using a long or small diameter extension cord. To resolve this, allow the tool to work at its own pace and ensure that the cutting accessories are sharp, replacing them as needed. Also, clear any blockages from the motor housing vents, wearing ANSI-approved safety goggles and a NIOSH-approved dust mask/respirator while blowing out dust with compressed air. Finally, make sure you are using an extension cord with the proper wire gauge for its length and load.
