Features of Japanese saws

The features of Japanese saws are spoken all over the world. They belong to special types of tools and are always popular with consumers. Requests of potential customers are constantly growing, so in modern conditions there are a large number of types and variations of this technique.

Japanese models are distinguished by their variety: manual, gasoline and electric. Another important detail when choosing a saw is the blade. It affects the productivity of the work and the quality of sawing. Such equipment has a narrow focus and is made of specific special materials.

Each manufacturer himself chooses a type suitable for production from the classification of canvases: someone according to the material, and someone according to the scope of the tool.

Such a saw is, at first glance, a hacksaw and consists of a cutting blade and a handle. Such a device has a back that is superimposed on the top of the metal sheet, imparting rigidity to the product. This is necessary in order for the canvas to perform its function smoothly and without hesitation. The blade of this tool has hardened teeth, which allows you to cut accurately.

Features of the Japanese technology of shank saws.

• The saw handle is larger than the blade itself. It resembles the hilt of a sword.
• Thin blade blade: up to one millimeter.
• The cut is made by moving "towards yourself".

In terms of shape and purpose, Japanese saws are divided into several types.

1. Universal - they have a wide blade, their cutting teeth are located on both sides of the blade.
2. For the strength of the product and limiting the depth of cut, rectangular blades without stops are used.
3. Tools for long cuts.
4. To remove knots and protrusions from the tree, use products with a thin blade.
5. Equipment for the manufacture of wooden figurines.
6. Devices for processing wood products with hard-to-reach places.

Saws with gasoline engines of Japanese manufacturers are distinguished by ease of operation and fairly understandable technical equipment. Such a product is sold at affordable prices even in the Russian Federation.

Japanese technology for the production of gasoline saws is recognized all over the world. Manufacturers take into account characteristics that are important for the economy of saw motors, such as mixture formation, compression rates and channel shapes. Thus, their engines have a large reserve of power, but at the same time the mass of the tool as a whole is preserved and gasoline consumption is reduced.

In addition, saws from Japan are distinguished by their environmental friendliness, safety and quiet operation.

The main advantages include:

• Long service life of the product even at high loads and in harsh climatic conditions.
• Compact weight, saving gasoline and high performance.
• Affordable price compared to European counterparts.
• The technique has a multi-stage cleaning system. It minimizes the release of toxins into the environment.
• Modern design that catches the eye. It's nice to have this kind of equipment in your home appliances arsenal.
• A high-quality approach to the production of products, both economy options and professional saws.

Striking examples of Japanese-made chainsaws include Echo products. The saws of the presented company are distinguished by enviable popularity.

The most popular are the following models.

• Echo 350. The engine has a built-in pump that pumps fuel, and there is also a device for easy starting of the unit. The main difference from other similar equipment is the harmonious combination of weight, power and production technology. Large engine displacement is one of the advantages over competitors.
• Echo 3500. Small but quite powerful chainsaw. It differs from competitors in its reliability and stability. Easy to use and does not require professional skills to operate.
• Echo 353. This is the model most commonly used by farmers. High quality, environmental friendliness, simple control of the unit provide an excellent opportunity to use it in everyday life, ahead of competitors.

A similar technique from Japanese brands is convenient and effective to use. Electric saws are used in the construction of wooden houses, timber harvesting, as well as in the garden. The classification of this technique is quite extensive. For example, there are models that run on a battery, others - from the mains. If we consider the technical properties, then there are household, semi-professional level and professional electric saws.

One of the most popular representatives is the Hitachi CS45Y saw.

It consists of a powerful motor, tires (45 cm), chain pitch is 3/8 ". The parts are made of quality materials.

In order to find a good electric saw, the following characteristics must be considered:

• Motor power... Saw performance, cutting speed and cutting depth depend on it.
• Saw weight... The saw should be compact and lightweight.
• Saw bar dimensions... The length of the bar affects the thickness of the wood.
• Security... A chain brake and an accidental start block must be installed.
• Chain pitch... Determines how well the saw can cut.
• Placement of the motor in the housing... Some are lightweight and compact, you can work with them at height. Others are cumbersome. They are characterized by fast and high-quality cutting. The technique is reliable to use.
• How well the chain stretches... Tighten with a wrench or by turning a lever.
• Smooth start... A system must be installed on the unit to reduce the load on the motor.
• Oil tank volume... The larger the reservoir, the less frequently you can add grease.
• Adjusting screw on the saw allows you to reduce oil consumption or, conversely, increase it as needed.
• Unit operation duration... On average, the continuous operation of a household electric saw should last 15 minutes, then a break for 10 minutes. Professional equipment can work up to 45 minutes. If a cordless saw, then its work should be enough for 60 minutes.
