This book is filled with really useful information on how to safely use and maintain your chain saw. Lots of good color photos make it easy to understand the safe way to handle a chain saw. I learned a lot of maintenance tips that will make my saw last a lot longer and save big $$$ over the years.
I recommend this book for both professional users and homeowners as well.
