It is probably a fueling problem. Small engines have small fuel and air passages so an almost clinical cleanliness is needed for refueling - this isn't often known or even possible so problems are almost inevitable.

Initially I suggest you try adjusting the carburettor fuel screws after referring to the instruction book (and ensuring the air filter is clean).
If this doesn't cure the problem it would seem the fuel system, including the carburettor, needs cleaning.

Slows down and stops when trying to cut hardwood

You just do not have a saw that has enough power, the blade is dull or both. Change your blade and push the wood through slower or get a more powerful saw for the hard woods.

Chain keeps coming off bar

The chain only comes off the bar if, the chain has become lose and de railed, or if the timber you are cutting is very springy and you are trapping it in the cut, our twisting it in the cut, if the saw is not oiling the chain correctly it will stretch and if not addressed will come off, once it has come off the drive links are usually damaged, you should realy start again with a new chain, when running close to a clean peice of wood you should a steady stream of chain oil coming from the end of the guide bar.

Not cutting through wood. Cuts are diminishing.

Sounds like the wood your cutting through is to hard for your battery powered saw....try one with a cord they work much better, especially for hardwood's.

Loses power when trying to cut wood

Check the muffler screens first. Then the spark plug. If not the case, then adjust the High setting on your carb. Prolly starving for fuel under engine load. If it is still a problem, Pull the carb and clean it.
