The chainsaw is a must-have tool for most Catskill Mountain landowners, yet it can seem daunting to use and expensive to maintain. Join CFA’s Forest Program Manager, John MacNaught, for a hands-on workshop on how to maintain your saw to ensure a longer life (and save you money!). John will cover all the nuts and bolts of chainsaw maintenance, including:
how to properly sharpen your chain
how to resolve basic mechanical issues at home
an overview of Personal Protective Equipment
proper techniques to operate the saw safely
You are encouraged to bring along your own saw for more hands-on experience and understanding of your own equipment.
