Trim Your Trees (and Your Spring To-Do List) with Ryobi’s 6-inch Pruning Chainsaw
Spring is almost here, and more than likely, your outdoor to-do list is already in bloom. In typical timely fashion, Ryobi has an array of products to assist homeowners in managing this season’s mounting lawn-and-garden demands, including the Ryobi 18V Pruning Chainsaw.
As the name suggests, this more compact version is the brushless iteration of its 8-inch pruning chainsaw, the P5453. To put things in perspective, let’s explore the features of Ryobi’s 18V Pruning Chainsaw to learn how it can help homeowners trim their trees (and their spring to-do lists).

- Chain speed: Up to 5 MPS (meters per second)
- Max Cut Thickness: 4 inches
As far as performance features go, Ryobi’s new brushless motor provides a top cutting speed of 5 MPS (meters per second), while its 6-inch bar and chain are geared for pruning and limbing tree branches up to 4 inches thick.
