QWD 61.5cc 18-Inch Gas Chainsaw — 2.75 HP Quick-Start, .325" Pitch Chain and 18" Bar

The QWD 61.5CC 18-inch gas chainsaw is a quick-start, 2.75 HP two-stroke saw built for homeowners and light professionals who need reliable cutting power for firewood, storm cleanup and farm chores.

This mid-size gas chainsaw pairs an air-cooled 61.5cc engine with an 18-inch guide bar and a durable .325" pitch chain to deliver steady cutting performance for everyday woodcutting tasks. It includes a compact fuel tank and an onboard chain-oil reservoir to extend run time between refills, plus a kit of tools and accessories so you can begin work right away. Designed for users who want more power than a cordless saw but a lighter footprint than large commercial models, the QWD saw balances torque, portability and basic serviceability.

How does the QWD chainsaw make starting easier?

Starting is simplified with a combined primer bulb, guided choke settings and a traditional pull-start rope. This arrangement reduces guessing and helps you follow a consistent routine for cold or warm engines.

• Primer bulb primes the carburetor for quicker ignition.
• Guided choke positions show recommended settings for start phases.
• Pull-start recoil with ergonomic handle for controlled pulls.

What cutting performance can I expect for firewood and fallen branches?

The 61.5cc TT-1E48F engine produces about 2.0 kW / 2.75 HP at 8,500 rpm and spins the chain up to 21 m/s, giving stable cutting through logs, limbs and storm debris. The 18-inch bar and .325" pitch, .050" gauge chain with 72 drive links and 36 cutters is tuned for consistent feed and reduced snagging.

• Engine rated for 8,500 rpm operating power, 10,300 rpm maximum speed.
• 18" guide bar for balanced reach and maneuverability.
• Hardened German-steel chain components for improved wear resistance.

What maintenance and fluids does this saw require?

The saw uses a 40:1 gasoline-to-2-stroke oil mix for the engine and a separate chain-oil reservoir to lubricate the bar and chain. The kit includes a mixing bottle, basic maintenance tools and a file so you can tune the chain and keep cutting cleanly.

• 550 ml fuel tank for manageable runtime and weight distribution.
• 260 ml chain-oil tank with sight/fill access for easy top-ups.
• Included tool pouch, combo wrench, screwdriver and sharpening file.

Is this saw safe and ready out of the box?

The package ships with the bar, chain, protective bar cover and user manual so you can perform initial setup and safety checks before first run. Basic safety depends on correct chain tension, proper fuel mix and wearing personal protective equipment while cutting.

• Factory-supplied bar cover for safe storage and transport.
• User manual outlines tensioning, refueling and pre-start inspections.
• Chain designed with hardened rivets for consistent performance under load.
