If your EGO Chainsaw bar and chain are running hot and smoking, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check the chain tension, as it might be overtightened and re-tension the saw chain. Also, the chain oil tank might be empty, so refill it with bar and chain lubricant. Finally, there might be debris in the guide bar groove, so clear the debris.
What to do if EGO Chainsaw does not cut properly?
If your EGO Chainsaw isn't cutting properly, there are several potential causes. The chain tension might be insufficient and you should readjust it. The chain could be dull, requiring you to sharpen the chain cutters. It's possible the chain is installed backwards, or the chain may be worn. Also, the chain could be dry or excessively stretched, so check the oil level and refill if necessary. Finally, ensure the chain is properly seated in the bar groove.
What to do if EGO Chainsaw motor runs, but chain does not rotate?
If the motor of your EGO Chainsaw runs but the chain doesn't rotate, it's likely that the chain does not engage the drive sprocket. To fix this, reinstall the chain, ensuring that the drive links on the chain are fully seated on the sprocket.
How to fix EGO CS1400-FC chain brake that does not engage?
If the chain brake on your EGO Chainsaw does not engage, it might be due to debris preventing full movement of the chain kickback brake handle. Clean any debris from the external chain brake mechanism. If this doesn't resolve the issue, there may be a chain brake malfunction.
