Whether you’re a farmer, landscape contractor, or more exacting homeowner, this heavy-duty, high-performance chainsaw from Efco will more than meet your needs. It’s driven by a powerful 3.4hp (42.9cc) Emak engine, which offers rapid acceleration to top-speed for highly efficient pruning, limbing & felling. To ensure starting is ultra-reliable, Efco have equipped the engine with a decompression-valve, a manual fuel-primer & a semi-automatic choke. An innovative self-cleaning nylon air-filter ensures optimum performance is maintained in all conditions. The Efco MT-440 Petrol Chainsaw is fitted with a series of shock-absorbing mounts, which work to reduce operator-fatigue & optimise handling. Its compact, well-balanced design & lightweight build (only 5kg) contribute further to user-comfort. Both the air-filter & the cylinder cover on the Efco MT-440 can be removed without tools, so routine maintenance couldn’t be easier. A side-mounted chain-tensioner allows for rapid adjustment with no risk of touching the saw-chain; while an adjustable oil-pump makes it possible to set the oil-flow rate (to the cutting-gear) to suit the density of the timber you’re working on. This model also features comprehensive ‘kick back’ protection in the form of an inertia activated chain-brake; & a forged-steel crankshaft, which confers exceptional durability, even when the saw is regularly subjected to long periods of maximum-rev use.
