I have a husky 372 xpg with a 20 inch bar, 2 chains of which i ran out of adjustment to the end of my bar slot,? did my chains stretch?? is my sprocket bad?? i cant tighten my chains to the bar anymore. what to do??
Even though STIHL OILOMATIC saw chain is pre-stretched at the factory, new saw chain needs a first run just to “break in.” The break-in smooths out tiny irregularities on the friction faces and allows the chain to properly “seat” the rivets. The tension should be readjusted just before the chain actually goes to work. - STIHL Sharp Advice For Chain Saw Owners
It;s not the chain, it's the saw. Get a stihl or dolmar and you won't have this problem anymore. The chains stretch in shame, from the saw there on.
I thought that they only shrank when they get cold?
