Frequently asked questions
What kind of chainsaw is the Ryobi 46396017697?
The Ryobi 46396017697 is a gas-powered chainsaw that runs on 2-cycle fuel, with a recommended bar length of 45.7 cm. That is a long bar for a gas saw, built for felling larger trees and cutting thick trunks in a single pass, rather than the lighter limbing and pruning work suited to shorter-barred saws.
How fast is the Ryobi 46396017697's chain?
Ryobi rates the chain speed of the 46396017697 at 22.50 m/s. Combined with its 45.7 cm bar, that speed lets the saw clear a full cut through a thick trunk in fewer passes than a slower chain would need, provided the chain stays sharp and properly tensioned during extended cutting sessions.
What fuel does the Ryobi 46396017697 run on?
The Ryobi 46396017697 uses 2-cycle fuel, a gasoline and two-stroke oil mix rather than straight gasoline or a battery pack. Owners must premix fuel at the correct ratio before every fill, and because this saw pairs a long 45.7 cm bar with a gas engine, fuel quality and level matter more on extended jobs.
