Description
BBT 40V Cordless 14" Chainsaw – Brushless | Makita Compatible
Serious Cutting Power. Without the Petrol.
Cut branches, prepare firewood and maintain your home or acreage without the fuel, fumes, pull-starting and maintenance of a petrol chainsaw.
The BBT 40V Cordless 14" Chainsaw combines a powerful brushless motor, fast 20m/s chain speed and genuine 14" bar with the simplicity of battery power.
Powered by 2 × 20V 4.0Ah Lithium-ion batteries, it delivers strong 40V performance in a lightweight and easy-to-handle package—ideal for property maintenance, pruning, storm clean-up and firewood preparation.
And there's another major advantage:
Makita 18V LXT Battery Compatible
Already have compatible Makita tools and batteries?
The BBT battery platform has been designed to accept compatible Makita 18V LXT-style batteries, giving customers who already own Makita battery tools greater flexibility across their equipment.
Important: Battery compatibility applies to powering the tool. BBT batteries must be charged using the supplied BBT charger, and Makita batteries should be charged using their appropriate Makita charger.
Powerful. Cordless. Easy to use. Made for real property maintenance.

40V Power – Made for Home & Acreage Maintenance
Battery tools have come a long way.
With two 20V batteries working together, the BBT Chainsaw delivers the 40V performance needed for everyday cutting jobs around your home, garden or acreage.
It's ideal for:
- Cutting branches
- Pruning trees
- Preparing firewood
- Clearing fallen limbs
- Storm clean-up
- Fence-line maintenance
- General property maintenance
Press the trigger and you're ready to work.
There's no fuel to mix, no carburettor to maintain and no pull cord to start.
For jobs where dragging out a petrol chainsaw feels like too much effort, the BBT Battery Chainsaw is ready in seconds.
Brushless Motor – More Efficient Power
At the heart of the chainsaw is a high-performance brushless motor.
Brushless technology reduces mechanical wear while delivering efficient power, improved reliability and lower maintenance compared with traditional brushed electric motors.
Combined with a 20m/s chain speed, the result is fast, confident cutting without the noise and fumes associated with petrol equipment.
Makita Compatible – One More Reason to Go Battery
This should become one of the strongest messages across the entire BBT Battery Tool range.
The Chainsaw is compatible with suitable Makita 18V LXT batteries, giving customers who already have Makita tools another way to use batteries they may already own.
Likewise, buying into the BBT Battery Tool range gives you batteries that can be shared across compatible BBT tools.
Important Battery & Charger Information
Battery fitment and charger compatibility are different.
- Compatible Makita batteries can power the BBT tool.
- Do not charge Makita batteries using the BBT charger.
- Do not charge BBT batteries using a Makita charger.
- Always use the charger designed for the respective battery.
That distinction should be standardised across every BBT Makita-compatible battery product listing.
Tool-Free Chain Adjustment
Chains naturally require adjustment during use.
The BBT Chainsaw features a tool-free chain tensioning and bar adjustment system, allowing quick adjustments without having to reach for additional tools.
Turn the adjustment control, set the correct tension and get back to work.
It's particularly convenient when you're moving around a larger property and don't want to carry a toolbox with the chainsaw.
Automatic Chain Lubrication
A 220ml oil tank and automatic lubrication system continuously supplies oil to the chain during operation, helping maintain smooth cutting performance and reducing unnecessary wear.
The external oil level indicator also makes it easy to see when it's time for a top-up.
Lightweight & Easy to Handle
At approximately 4.9kg including the batteries, the BBT Chainsaw provides serious cutting capability without the weight and bulk associated with many petrol chainsaws.
That makes a noticeable difference when:
- Pruning multiple trees
- Moving around larger properties
- Cutting at different angles
- Working for longer periods
- Carrying the saw between jobs
The ergonomic handle and balanced cordless design make it a practical tool to grab whenever there's cutting to be done.
Built-In Safety
The Chainsaw incorporates a front hand guard and chain brake system, designed to stop the chain in the event of kickback activation.
Combined with the push-button electric starting system, there's no pull-start sequence or idling engine before you're ready to cut.
Part of the BBT Battery Tool Range
One battery-powered tool is convenient.
A complete compatible tool range is where the system really starts to make sense.
The growing BBT Battery Tool range includes:
Chainsaw · Lawn Mower · Brush Cutter · Hedge Trimmer · Blower/Vacuum · 4-in-1 Multi-Tool
Whether you're mowing the lawn, trimming hedges, clearing leaves, cutting branches or maintaining a larger acreage, the range has been developed around the same idea:
Powerful tools. Less maintenance. No petrol. Cordless convenience.
The current range already covers most of the key gardening and property-maintenance jobs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Makita batteries with this chainsaw?
Yes. The chainsaw is designed to accept compatible Makita 18V LXT batteries, giving existing Makita battery-tool owners additional flexibility.
Can I charge my Makita batteries with the BBT charger?
No.
The compatibility relates to powering the tool, not cross-charging the batteries.
Use the BBT charger for BBT batteries and the appropriate Makita charger for Makita batteries.
Does it include batteries and a charger?
Yes. The chainsaw includes 2 × 20V 4.0Ah BBT Lithium-ion batteries and a dual-port charger, so it's ready to use as a complete kit.
Is it suitable for acreage maintenance?
Yes. It's particularly well suited to regular branch cutting, pruning, firewood preparation, fallen-limb clean-up and general home or acreage maintenance.
For continuous heavy forestry work or very large timber, a larger petrol chainsaw may still be the more appropriate tool.
Do I need tools to adjust the chain?
No. The chainsaw features a tool-free chain tensioning and bar adjustment system, making routine adjustment quick and straightforward.
Does the chain need oil?
Yes. Like any chainsaw, the bar and chain require lubrication. The BBT Chainsaw has a 220ml oil reservoir with automatic chain lubrication.
Why choose battery instead of petrol?
For regular home and property maintenance, battery power provides some major conveniences:
No fuel mixing. No fumes. No pull starting. Lower noise. Less engine maintenance.
Insert the batteries, check your chain oil and you're ready to work.
