      If the GreenWorks Chainsaw motor runs, but the chain isn't rotating, the chain tension might be too tight. Check the guide bar and chain assembly and retention the chain. Inspect guide bar and chain for damage.

      If the GreenWorks Chainsaw's motor runs and the chain rotates but doesn't cut, the chain may be dull and require sharpening. Alternatively, the chain might be on backwards and needs to be reversed.

    Why is my GreenWorks 20152 bar and chain running hot and smoking?
    • K
      Kelly SpencerAug 21, 2025
      If the bar and chain on your GreenWorks Chainsaw are running hot and smoking, it could be due to the chain being overtightened. Tension the chain. Another possible cause is an empty chain oil tank, so check the oil tank.
