The WoodRanger difference
A small saw for small jobs
A 24V battery, a short bar and a safety switch: the right size for a limb at the fence line or a pile of small logs.
Runs on a battery
A 24V lithium-ion battery runs the motor. Clip it in and take the saw to the job, from the back fence to the woodpile.
A switch and a baffle
A safety switch sits on the handle and a baffle sits over the chain. A speed switch lets you ease into the cut.
Made for one hand
Rated at 1.76 lb (0.8 kg), with a pistol grip: one hand holds the handle and the other stays clear of the bar.
Before you buy
Six things worth knowing first
-
-
Two switches, two jobs.
The round safety button and the speed switch are separate controls on the handle. Ease into the cut on the speed switch.
-
Hold it by the handle.
One hand on the handle, the other well clear of the bar. Let the chain do the work instead of pushing.
-
Up to 4 inches.
The 4-inch guide plate is rated for logs up to 4 inches: limbs, small firewood, thick hedge stems. Not trunks.
-
Swap and keep going.
The Pro Kit has two batteries and two chains. When one is flat or dull, change it and carry on.
-
Oil, tension, store.
Keep the chain clean, tensioned and oiled, and slide the cover back over the bar when you are done.
Why choose it
Why choose the WoodRanger
Light enough for one hand
A big saw takes two hands, a stance and a gas can. This one is rated at 1.76 lb and runs on a battery, so a limb at the fence line is a one-handed job.
A kit that keeps going
The Pro Kit comes with two batteries and two chains. When a battery is flat or a chain is dull, swap it and keep cutting.
A switch before the chain
The chain waits for the safety switch, so a knock in the bag does not start it. The baffle along the bar keeps chips off your forearm, and heat protection is built in.
Cordless, no gas, no cord
It works wherever the battery goes, the far corner of the yard or the bed of a truck, with no outlet to reach and no fuel to carry.
Built for limbs, not trunks
Rated for logs up to 4 inches, and that is the job. In return the saw is light and the bar is short, so there is less chain out in the open.
Too thick for the loppers. Too small for the big saw.
Just right for one hand.
A 4-inch bar on a 24V battery.
That limb on the fence? Done before lunch.

The neighbor's maple keeps dropping limbs over our fence. I used to drag out the bow saw and lose a Saturday. Now it is one hand on the grip and the pile is done before lunch.

A big chainsaw was never going to happen for me. This one sits light in one hand, and the thick old stems in the hedge that my loppers could not close on finally come out.

I bought the Pro Kit for the two batteries. One charges in the garage while the other cuts the small branches into stove lengths on the sawhorse, and I just swap them.

Questions & answers
How thick a limb can it cut?
The guide plate is 4 inches and the maker rates the saw for logs up to 4 inches. That covers limbs, small firewood and thick hedge stems. It is made for limbs and small logs, not for trunks or longer logs.
What safety parts does it have?
A safety switch on the handle, a baffle over the chain, heat protection and an anti-slip grip. It is still a chainsaw: wear work gloves and clear safety glasses, hold the saw by the handle and keep your other hand well clear of the bar.
Can a beginner use it?
It has one handle, a safety switch and a speed switch you can ease in with, and the maker calls it beginner-friendly when the safety instructions are followed. Read the manual first, start on a limb at a comfortable height and let the chain do the work.
How long does the battery last?
The maker rates a battery at up to 45 minutes of cutting on a charge. The Pro Kit has two batteries, so a flat one does not end the job. How long it lasts in practice depends on the wood and on how hard you push.
Does it need oil?
Yes. Like any chainsaw it needs a lubricated chain, and the maker’s care list is to keep the chain clean, tensioned and oiled. Check it before each job.
What is in the box?
The Starter Kit has the saw, one battery and one chain. The Pro Kit has the saw, two batteries and two chains. The Dual Pro Kit has two saws, four batteries and four chains. The kits also include a charging cable, a bar cover, a user manual and a maintenance set.
Can it cut firewood?
Small logs, yes, up to 4 inches across. It is a trimming saw, so a winter’s supply of firewood calls for a bigger saw.
Is it better than a hand pruning saw?
A hand saw has nothing to charge or oil, and your arm does the work on every stroke. On this one a motor does that work, which matters most on limbs near the limit of the bar.
