- Ask any Wildland fire fighter if they'd buy an electric chainsaw........Excalty. Although not meant for work on the fire line. I find this 12" saw amzazing at doing 90% of what I need to do.

5/8" O-ring on the inside of the cap will resolve that oil leak. Great review of the Dewalt 12" chainsaw..Thank you
Iv heard that. I haven't had an issue yet
Mate, just don't fill oil all way to top. Fill to bottom of the black insert, she'll be right.
Mine leaks oil, but not from the fill cap.
been using a couple of them on my orchard for a few years. i love these saws. once you fix the leak problem at least. i put a 14" oregon bar and chain on one of them which i use for larger double handed cutting. i use the original one handed. i love these saw.
Love my little Dewalt. Almost never fire up my gas saws.
Sad day my well used 12” dewalt died the other day the good news is I had it fixed $80 and it’s back in service your bar looks like my old one
Great review!
Especially coming from a firefighter👍🏻
Cheers from Denmark🇩🇰
"That's what she said." LMAO!
I have the 20v 12" like your saw and I also bought the 60v 16"and upgraded it to the 18" both saws are amazing and I work for a tree service so they get used. I also have a Milwaukee m12 reciprocating saw and I tried the big blade on it and it done ok. It's definitely not a replacement for the dewalt 12" saw. I also put an Oregon 14" bar and chain on it and it became a better saw and plenty of power. I probably use it more than the 60v. LOL just thought I would share this with you.
Hope it helps.
Thank you I am looking at the 12" dewalt and you answered some questions I had!
Long time viewer-don't comment much but I added a Makita 10" to my repertoire this year as a truck saw, (don't generally keep a full sized saw with gas in the truck); but this baby is small enough to live under the seat and works in a bind. I find myself using it regularly over a gas saw for trail work clearing, too. I love the modified bag. Thanks for that.
awesome, I have few more vids about the saw coming up.
I have the 20v dewalt small one handed reciprocating saw. I can fall 8 inch trees with only 6 inch blade pretty effortlessly in seconds. There is even a 2 inch larger blade I haven't even got to yet, as well smaller. Tool is Small in size and light, yet incredibly powerful and smooth. Optional blades to even cut cast iron Rebar or concrete. I think you sold me on this 12inch over the 16 so I hope I returned the favour
Did you get the saw? How do you like the 12 inch
The new dccs623 8” pruning chainsaw is pretty sweet! I also use the 16” flex volt chainsaw, & the dcps620 pole chainsaw.
All this from a diehard Stihl chainsaw user for over 35 years.
The battery saws do have a place for the homeowners.
I love it getting ready to buy one my self .
Thanks for the review!
Thanks for this. I’m debating this one versus a Stihl arborer’s chainsaw for carrying in a UTV for clearing deadfall out of trails.
Dewalt just released a ne top handle arborist saw in the 60v line. They had an 18 inch and 20 inch professional saws come out in the same line a couple years back.
I have whole sortiment on Dewalt cordless tools. Pretty much all I use. I also do I lot a wood cutting , have 2 professional Stihl chainsaws. Was wondering about this one as a little back up to carry in truck or excavator. Sure looks promising.
Great video! Very cool! LOVE IT! Great tips with the bag. I just got the Dewalt pruner, that does two inch limbs easily.
I have craftsman 20v version of this they are almost identical works great
I got a12" chains and was not able to get the 9Ah MAX 20 20 volt Batteries as everyone was sold out so I got the 12Ah 60v/20v Flexvolt batteries that will work in both the 16" 60V Chainsaw and the 12" 20V Chainsaw. I am also using Canola Oil to lubricate the Blade. The Chainsaw works very well and seems to have quite a bit of power. The only downside is that it is a pain to clean up.
Don't use canola oil, when dry it fouls the motor, beware!
@@playtime5234 I read somewhere to not use canola oil when it is extremely Cold out. The cold keeps the oil from flowing smoothly. I got some 30W Chainsaw oil I got at Walmart also. What do you suggest?
Excellent video, great amount of information. I'm thinking about upgrading from a Dewalt 20v Recipr Saw with a 12" pruning blade. This chainsaw seams to cut way quicker. 😂
Thinking about buying one of these as I already have a DeWalt 18v polesaw , good tip on the carry bag , thanks .
I also gave the dewalt pole saw. A bit underpowered, but extremely useful. And, I already had a quiver of dewalt cordless tools. You can never have enough batteries. So, I’ll get the 12” saw
I have the Black+Decker 10" 20V chainsaw and it does everything I need 99% of the time.
Dewalt is a registered trademark of Black and Decker
Hackzall would be too small for your needs. I've used it at home to cut some branches up etc. It is alittle slow cutting with a Diablo pruning blade. It gets it done but not fast at all
I found that out the hard way ;)
Nice.. I've been wanting to something like for a while now. I CAN cut firewood by hand. It's just a pain in the butt. lol
Thanks for the video brother
It's sure nice to have
I have the Ryobi 12". Love the light weight, compactness and easy start/stop. Use it for limbing and then go to my echo 28" for the bigger stuff.
I have a recip with a long pruning blade, but it's slower and rougher on the wrists.
I have the 5ah powerstack on mine works well
With the little girl you did a great job .... I'm seriously thinking about it. I was also evaluating some competition with power at 40 v or higher but, I see that then all related industries including batteries have a much higher cost. Congratulations for the review.
Dewalt definitely makes a small sawzall now
I would think a reciprocating saw would make a terrible pruning saw. They generally don't have the stroke length necessary to clear chips from the kerf very effectively.
I recently found that out, that video should be up soon
Just learnt how to field strip and reassemble mine. Manual and online articles say that cooking oil can be used and better for environment. Left sitting idle for a long time. And when went to use found no lubrication. When opened case discovered oil lines full of a viscous black sticky mess. Oil pump seized at bottom of travel. Maybe vegetable oil reacted with the metal anti kink coils in oil line. Or just turned fully rancid. All cleaned up and pumping oil again. And will stick with petroleum oils from now on.
I've used canola oil for lube without issue....maybe since that oil is derived from a seed, less chance of it spoiling and gunning up
I just purchased a 20 in DeWalt on Amazon today.
We are clearing out four acres of mesquite and I have been using my DeWalt 20 V reciprocating saw with the pruner blades and I've been wearing the s*** out of my DeWalt cordless reciprocating saw.
Time to step up to the next level. I just do not want to use my gas powered chainsaws.
Our shoulders are not what they used to be when I was younger.
The gas powered chainsaws will be used as backup for bigger trees.
Muito bom... ótimo vídeo... parabéns... acabei de comprar uma!!!
You can add a rubber O ring to your oil filler plug to slow down some of the oil leaks.
what size of o ring did you use? Can you put a link to ring if possible? Thank you
@@pelon21313 I’m sorry I don’t have the measurement on hand, when I get to my garage I’ll throw a measuring tape on it soon
@@pelon21313 I’ll get it to you in about eight hours when I get out of bed
No problem, thx
@@pelon21313 here is the video I watched to put the O ring on. Mine measures 1 1/8 inches. I can’t get it off because it fits too tight.
I would suggest taking the plug to a local hardware store. I took an O ring from an old water filter that goes in my Gaggia coffee maker.

I have the same chainsaw and find when it cuts it leaves a splintering on the cut and it has done it out the box with a new chain. Is this normal?
HD has good discount on these for BF, gogogo. Can't get a better utility saw.
Definately not, the Sawal blade just doesn't work the same. You're better with a big pruning saw.
Funny thing I started with the small saw and got bigger and bigger. Now you tell me to go back to the small saw. So yes, maybe I will. It's nice to be able to one hand overhead.
Tool tip. The oscillating tool is the best root cutter you'll ever find. It doesn't care about the dirt.
oscillating tool for roots with what type of blade?? I'm asking cause i've always used sawzall (reciprocating saws) for roots cause you can get blades for fairly cheap, long ones too, and the dirt doesn't ruin the blades quickly. Are there long oscillating tool blades that i'm not aware of? I do trail work and build fences in the pnw and we have large douglas fir roots here.
I love mine, Im like you I already have dewalt stuff so why not just add to the 20v lineup
Great Review and video thanks for sharing Good Stuff mr.
The Vermonter
Should I get this or a Stihl 170 as a chainsaw beginner, for trimming bigger branches of trees?
That’s what she said 😂
90% good enough for this guy is 99.5% good enough for most other people lol...
What mm file size does it use? 4.0 mm?
👍👍
What about the oil leak? This model is known for its oil leak problem. Is there a workaround for it?
i havent had much of a problem. no more than any saw running bar oil in it
I have the Dewalt 12" cs and its not really big enough for a lot of jobs and too big for a pruning saw.
The original chain uses a 4.5mm file.
Came to see the saw cut ..6 minutes in and one cut but lots of gum bumping
Reciprocating saws ain't got nothing on this saw. You can also upgrade this to a 14 or 16 inch oregon bar and chain kit without increasing weight or bulk much.
IV been using the 16in for a while. Very happy with it
I put the 18 inch bar and chain kit on mine. Works great with the 9 Ah battery.
