![]() ![]() It requires 40:1 gas to oil ratio fuel and chain bar lubricant for its automatic oiling system. It includes a chain guard, screwdriver, spark plug/chain tensioner tool, sharpening file, and a small lightweight carrying case. The saw comes mostly assembled with only the bumper spike, bar, and chain to install which is easy to do. Ordered the chain saw to replace an aging Echo18 inch bar unit. I am sure this saw would be fine for most people, but I think I will remain an exhaust-free, quiet, cordless chainsaw fan! I was disappointed that there were no gauges for the oil or fuel tanks. It does cut the branches, but with 2800 RPMs, it does not perform as well as my 6800 RPM cordless chainsaw. This saw is heavier than my cordless, it weighs 15 pounds before the oil and fuel are added. Included are a plug wrench, a screwdriver, a bumper spike, and a chain file. The clutch cover was stuck and had to be pried off and after the bar & chain were installed, and it was awkward to reassemble - I am used to, and prefer, a no-tool option for opening the cover. I had to turn to Google for instructions. I am not a novice to chainsaws - I have easily used my 56V battery-operated saw for many years, but it was not a small task for me to figure out all the different steps for this gas-operated one. They were not very detailed and the pictures are small & blurry. Since this was my first gas saw, I found the instructions were lacking enough information for a novice gas chainsaw owner. I was excited to try a gas chainsaw but this one did not impress me as much as the case and scabbard did.
