If your Power smart Chainsaw's bar and chain are running hot and smoking, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the chain tension is too tight and re-tension the chain. Another reason could be that the chain oil tank is empty, so fill it with bar and chain lubricant. Finally, check for any debris in the guide bar groove and clear it out.
What to do if Power smart PS8218 Chainsaw does not cut properly?
If your Power smart Chainsaw isn't cutting properly, there are several potential causes. This could be due to insufficient chain tension, which requires readjustment. Another cause might be a dull chain, which means you should replace it. Also, check if the chain is installed backwards and reinstall it correctly. Other possible causes are worm or excessively stretched chain. Finally, check that the chain is in the bar groove and reinstall if necessary.
What to do if the Power smart PS8218 Chainsaw motor runs but the chain doesn't rotate?
If the motor of your Power smart Chainsaw is running but the chain isn't rotating, it could be because the chain does not engage the drive sprocket. Reinstall the chain, ensuring the drive links are fully seated on the sprocket. Another potential cause is the guide bar nose sprocket, in which case you should replace the guide bar.
