I have a new 3.5hp (I think) "Works" largest 14" chainsaw that I want
to use the motor for a project. I need to know the RPM. I've had no
luck researching this and I no longer have an RPM meter. I imagine
all chainsaws have similar rpm. I need to get the ratios on timing
belt sprockets close to optimal. If this works, you will all be
dazzled by my brilliance!


and if it doesn't work...?

My Husqvarna 350 tops out around 12,000 RPM.


But that's a gas model. Electrics are much, much tamer.
