Same summary

The Bosch UniversalChain 40 is an electric chainsaw that is best suited for home users looking for a tool for pruning branches, occasional firewood preparation or regular work around the house. The combination of a 1800 W motor, a 40 cm bar length and an SDS quick chain tensioning system makes it quite easy to use and maintain. Due to the electric drive, it is less suitable for more demanding use in the forest or where there is no access to electricity. The brushless motor is not present, which means that more frequent care for the motor may be required during intensive or long-term use.
