Description
MASPORT MC342 petrol chainsaw delivers powerful 41.9cc performance in a lightweight design suitable for both residential use and demanding forestry applications. This versatile 16-inch chainsaw combines high-performance cutting capability with user-friendly operation for efficient tree work, firewood cutting, and garden maintenance tasks.
The robust 1.7kW (2.3HP) engine provides reliable power for tackling larger cutting jobs while maintaining fuel efficiency throughout extended work sessions. The forged crankshaft construction offers maximum wear resistance, ensuring long-term durability under demanding conditions. Chrome-lined cylinder and twin ring piston design improve heat dissipation and extend engine life significantly.
Cutting performance centres around the 40cm (16-inch) Oregon bar paired with 3/8-inch low-profile chain, providing excellent cutting capacity for medium to large diameter wood. This combination delivers fast, clean cuts through various wood types while maintaining good manoeuvrability. The side chain tensioner enables quick chain adjustments without removing covers or requiring additional tools.
Operator comfort receives attention through the advanced anti-vibration system that effectively reduces fatigue during extended cutting sessions. Ergonomic grips provide secure handling and natural hand positioning for better control and reduced strain. The easy start system minimizes pull effort required for engine starting, making operation accessible to users of varying strength levels.
Maintenance convenience features include tool-free tank connections for quick fuel and oil refilling without additional equipment. Easy-to-open tank caps streamline routine maintenance tasks. Adjustable bar lubrication allows optimization of chain oil flow based on cutting conditions, extending chain life and improving cutting efficiency.
The impressive weight-to-power ratio of 2.8 kg/kW demonstrates efficient engineering that maximizes cutting performance while keeping weight manageable for extended use. This balance makes the saw suitable for both occasional users and professionals requiring frequent operation.
Comprehensive 5-year domestic warranty coverage provides confidence in build quality and long-term manufacturer support.
