Hello!
I wonder about drive link counts for chain saws: Specifically that they
can vary just a little (one drive link or so) between different bars of
same claimed length for a given saw ... .
For example, I was planning to use an Oregon 28 inch Laser Tip solid
3/8 bar for 92 drive links and prepared some 92 drive link chains for
it, but then I ended up with another Oregon 28 inch nose wheel sort
of 3/8 bar for 93 drive links: Can I still use my 92 drive links chains
as long as I can fit them to the saw properly? (I guess so, but why
don't ask when there must be knowledgeable people around .)
Similarly, I have an Oregon 16 inch Laser Tip solid 3/8 bar on which
it is written that it is for 59 drive links but I would like to run a 60
drive link chain on it instead: Is that OK as long as I can tension the
chain sufficiently?
Thanks, best palbin
