Quick answer: Match the tool to the job and how often you will use it: a petrol pole saw or hedge trimmer for yard work, a chainsaw sized to the timber (bar length about 5 cm longer than the logs you cut), a mitre saw for trim and framing, and a wet-dry vac for clean-up. Always read the manual, use the right PPE and control dust on masonry jobs.

This hub lists 112 in-stock products from the Power tools collection at Darrah Opens, checked on 25 September 2026. It groups chainsaws and pole saws, hedge trimmers, welders, saws, wall chasers, log splitters and workshop vacuums.

What is in the power tools range

The range includes petrol chainsaws and pole chainsaws, multi-tool pole pruners and brush cutters, hedge trimmers, inverter welders, mitre and drop saws, wall chasers with dust collectors, log splitters, nail guns, pressure washer accessories and wet-dry vacuums.

How to choose power tools

  • Chainsaws: choose a bar length about 5 cm longer than the thickest timber you usually cut.
  • Pole saws and multi-tools reach higher branches without a ladder; check the reach and weight.
  • Two-stroke petrol tools need the fuel-oil mix listed in the manual; store fuel safely.
  • Mitre saws: check blade size and cutting capacity for the timber widths you use.
  • Masonry cutting and chasing creates silica dust: use dust extraction and a P2 respirator, and leave electrical wiring to a licensed electrician.

Safety gear and good habits

  • Wear eye and hearing protection, gloves and sturdy boots; add chainsaw chaps and a helmet for chainsaw work.
  • Keep chains sharp and tensioned, and check guards before each use.
  • Control dust: use extraction, wet cutting where designed for it and a P2 respirator on concrete, brick and stone. Safe Work Australia publishes guidance on working safely with silica dust.
  • Let petrol tools cool before refuelling, and never run them indoors.

Frequently asked questions (2026)

What size chainsaw do I need?

For pruning and small firewood, a bar of about 30-40 cm is usually enough. Choose a longer bar and more power for felling or cutting large logs.

Pole saw or ladder and chainsaw: which is safer?

A pole saw lets you cut higher branches with your feet on the ground, which is generally safer than using a chainsaw on a ladder.

What fuel mix do two-stroke tools use?

Two-stroke tools run on petrol mixed with two-stroke oil at the ratio in the manual, often 25:1 or 40:1. Check your tool's manual before mixing.

Do I need a dust extractor for a wall chaser?

Yes. Chasing masonry creates fine silica dust, so use a dust extractor, wear a P2 respirator and follow Safe Work Australia guidance.

Where can I see prices and current stock?
