I was recently at my brothers Farm, and I was trying to run a Electric Chain Saw. I plugged it into the outlet, and it would barley turn the Chain saw.
My question is how do I get the outlet to provide the Highest power setting, I see 2 options on the Button in the cab.
How do I toggle to the higher setting?
 
If your truck isn’t running it’s the lower setting. If you run your truck it’s the higher. Usually most tools run more that what you can supply. Sorry it’s not the best answer but I ran into the same issue!
 
Truck needs to be in Idle to run the 400W, if its just on accessory power then its 100W.

*Check what your chainsaw draws Watt wise, my quick google search says that chainsaws need 2000W to run, which the truck wont be able to power regardless.
 
I've had a similar issue. You need to idle to get the power needed
