Background
The Craftsman Chain Saw 358.351580 is a gasoline-powered tool designed for cutting wood. It was manufactured by POULAN/WEEDEATER for Sears under the Craftsman brand. The chainsaw is equipped with an 18 inches bar, offering a substantial length for cutting through thick logs and branches.
This chainsaw operates on a 2.4 cubic inches/40cc 2-cycle gasoline engine, offering reliable performance for various cutting tasks. It features a choke/fast idle lever, which aids in setting the choke and fast idle speed for starting the engine. The chainsaw also has a throttle lockout that prevents accidental squeezing of the trigger. Another notable feature is the chain tension adjustment, which helps maintain the optimal tension of the chain during operation. This is particularly useful as it is normal for a new chain to stretch during the first 30 minutes of operation.
