The WORX WG305E is an electric chain saw designed for sawing trees, tree trunks, branches, wooden beams, and planks. It can make cuts with or across the grain but is not suitable for sawing mineral materials.
The chain saw operates by means of an electric motor, driving a chain around a guide bar to perform cutting. It features a lock-out button (3) and an on/off switch/trigger (2) for operation. The chain brake (7) is a safety mechanism that stops the chain immediately upon kickback. An oil level window (4) allows monitoring of the chain oil, which is essential for lubrication. The chain tensioning knob (11) facilitates easy adjustment of chain tension.
