Your battery will put out maybe 200 amps and its amp-hour rating might be 10. Divide 10 by 200 and we get .05 hours or 3 minutes. If you have a 1200 watt inverter that would probably power an electric chainsaw so maybe you could run it for 3 minutes. Your generator will not keep the battery charged at that rate. Think of the generator as a trickle charger at maybe 10 or 20 amps. You could probably trim a few limbs before the battery dies.

Please try it and let us know what happens, or you could just borrow a real chainsaw and cut all day with it.
