Milwaukee® Redefines Battery Powered Chainsaw Capabilities

MILWAUKEE, WI – Furthering their commitment to the tree care industry, Milwaukee Tool sets a new standard of power capabilities for professional battery powered chainsaws with the new M18 FUEL™ 20” Dual Battery Chainsaw. Leveraging their industry leadership in battery technology, Milwaukee’s new 20” Chainsaw generates 70cc power, delivers faster cutting with reduced stalls, and provides users with a balanced design for more control in application. Optimized for medium to heavy demand felling, bucking, limbing, and stump cutting applications, this expansion in their lineup of professional chainsaw solutions drives performance and productivity for the tree care professional. 

“This most recent expansion in Milwaukee’s lineup sets a new standard of battery chainsaw performance capabilities, delivering unprecedented power while maintaining battery compatibility,” explains Tony Buxton, Director of Product Marketing for Milwaukee Tool. “When paired with the new M18 REDLITHIUM™ FORGE™ XC8.0 Batteries, this saw provides professionals with a significant leap in capability for maximum productivity, ultimately showcasing the power REDLITHIUM™ FORGE™ battery technology unlocks on the job. With this expansion in our chainsaw lineup designed to meet the performance needs of the tree care industry, Milwaukee is delivering the most comprehensive offering of professional battery chainsaw solutions.”

Delivering the highest level of performance for professionals, the new M18 FUEL™ 20” Dual Battery Chainsaw generates 70cc gas power. The integrated POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor delivers 5.8 HP of peak power and 9.5 Nm of peak torque, allowing users to make demanding cuts without bogging down to drive more efficiency in application. Providing added control in application, the power mode select capability enables users to run the saw in Standard Power Mode with 4.4HP or Peak Power Mode with 5.8HP to allow operators increased control over power output. Standard Power Mode maximizes run time and runs cooler, while Peak Power Mode provides maximum power to prevent stalls in the most demanding applications. 

With high visibility felling sights and dual metal bucking spikes, the saw offers a user demanded feature set and delivers a balanced design to drive efficiency and ease of use. As a battery-powered solution, this chainsaw eliminates the headaches of gas such as pull starts, high noise levels, emissions, and regular engine maintenance.

In addition to the 20" Dual Battery Chainsaw, Milwaukee is launching the 20” .325” Pitch, .050” Gauge Saw Chain and 20" .325" Pitch, .050" Gauge Guide Bar. The 20" Saw Chain delivers fast hardwood cutting and is designed to prevent stalls in sawing applications. The 20" Guide Bar features a durable, multi-rivet nose and 12-tooth design to withstand tough bore cutting applications. The narrow kerf design offers more cuts per charge versus standard kerf systems to maximize battery efficiency.  

Milwaukee is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day's work on one battery system. The M18 FUEL™ 20” Dual Battery Chainsaw is fully compatible with the entire M18™ line, now offering more than 250 solutions.
