CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 4, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The new Cat® 60V, 16 in. Chainsaw is a powerful saw that delivers gas-like performance without the noise, maintenance, and fumes. Recognized worldwide, the Cat brand is noted for its engineering, innovation and rugged dependability of its building and construction equipment. Now, with the emergence of Cat 60V outdoor power equipment, the same focus on quality, durability and performance continues.
Made for the ambitious homeowner with challenging tree maintenance needs or professional landscaping crews. But, the intangible situations are where the saw really comes in handy. This chainsaw is perfect for storm cleanup with downed limbs or smaller tasks like stockpiling firewood. Removing diseased or insect infected limbs as well as thinning out overgrown shrubbery or trees makes the saw indispensable for emergencies and general maintenance.
The Cat 60V brushless chainsaw is up to these tasks and more. This power-packed chainsaw cuts timbers up to 30 in. diameter. Its 16-in. bar has a reduced-kickback chain with a 3/8 in. lp (low pitch) and a cutting speed rate of 72 ft./sec. to deliver professional-grade results.
The 60V 16 in. chainsaw is equipped with a highly-efficient and dependable brushless motor. The high-performance brushless motor provides up to 40 percent more power and 10 percent longer run time than standard motors. The brushless motor runs cooler with less friction and heat buildup than conventional motors, resulting in smooth, reliable operation and extended tool life.
The Cat 60V MAX lithium-ion battery features advance technology that enhances
the saw's performance and extends run-times. Fully enclosed cell protection provides increased security against vibration, impact, moisture and thermal runaway. The Cat 60V 16 in. Chainsaw comes with a 3-amp, 50-minute charger. The Cat 60V battery is compatible with all Cat 60V outdoor power equipment for cost savings and convenience.
The Cat chainsaw also provides a full complement of features, including tool-less chain tensioning and automatic chain lubrication. Tool-less chain tensioning system guarantees optimum tension easily without using tools. The Cat one-step, tool-less tensioning not only saves time and effort, but also helps extend bar and chain life.
An automatic chain lubrication system includes a reservoir with an oil-level indicator, showing when a refill is needed. The reservoir's capacity is 6.7 ounces. Constant lubrication is provided to both the bar and chain throughout operation.
The chainsaw's 16-in. bar has a reduced-kickback chain. If kickback does occur, a quick-stop chain brake stops the chain's rotation immediately. The brake helps prevent accidental cutting and allows the operator to stop the chain immediately before setting down the saw or moving to another location. The brake's handle is designed for easy activation, whether the saw is held vertically or horizontally.
The eco-friendly cordless chainsaw is emission-free and has low operating and low maintenance costs, compared to gas-powered models. Also, there's no pull-cord, gas tank to fill, spark plug and filters to replace, or loud motor noise.
