Here is Stihl's answer: The pitch of the Picco chain on your 021 is a 3/8”P. Unfortunately, the 2-N-1 file guide you purchased will not work with either of the chains on your MS 310 or the 021. The 2-N-1 files are designed for a specific pitch. Therefore, the round files in them are not...

Awesome, thanks. I've attached the relevant section. The way I view it, I have to order a whole new 2N1 kit for each pitch, and they don't sell replacement files for the 2N1. OR, I just buy their "regular files" from p213. But, then, on p213, I don't see any Picco files listed. Further, is...

I just submitted the following question to stihlusa.com, and I figured some of y'all may want to see it and maybe take a stab. I will post their official response when I get it. --- I have about seven Stihl saws, 441C, a 310 and an 021 among others. My question is about my 310 and 021. My...

Given the above conversation regarding me unintentionally converting my Stihl 310 to 3/8 pitch clutch sprocket, which of these Oregon combos do y'all recommend as my next bar+chain a. Part 580123 which is an 050 bar with a standard chain (not low kickback) or b. Part 580122 whichis an 063 bar...

Thank y'all for your answers. I now understand that Picca on a Stihl bar means a 3/8 pitch but a Picca chain. Questions: 1. Does that mean I can use a Stihl 3/8 2n1 sharpener on this Picca chain just like a "regular 3/8"? 2. Can I run a regular 3/8 chain in the right length on this Stihl bar...

An 021

I feel like I know most of them, but I do not know what my pitch is from reading these markings Can y’all help

Do you know if those Stihl sharpeners allow for you to swap out 3/8 and .325 guides and files?

Ugh, so stupid of me. I guess the ideal thing - assuming I just have two saws - is to have matching pitch on both saws so I can use just one sharpener!

Oh, yeah, Oregon told me that, for my 3/8 pitch drum sprocket on my 310, I need either a. Part 580123 which is an 050 bar with a standard chain (not low kickback) or b. Part 580122 whichis an 063 bar with a standard chain (not low kickback) I realize there are better bars, but I want to get...

Man, chainsaws are so much more complicated than I thought. I bought a Stihl 310 a while back. I have no clue what bar, chain, or sprockets were on it. I recently replaced the clutch sprocket with this...

Man, y'all all helped me alot, and, holeycow, you nailed what I did: 1. I ran the chain tight because I thought I was supposed to do that. 2. My oiler was plugged because I didn't know the mechanism by which a bar got oiled. Never underestimate my ignorance!!!

Dang, y'all respond fast. OK, I need a new bar for my stock 310. I have only ever bought Stihl chains, and I have a few. So, I plan on buying a bar that works with those chains. If you ask me specs on the chains, I will say, "I don't know. I bought what the guy handed me, and they have fit...

Man those were great responses. I don't get the inside joke about MAGNUM stickers, but oh well. Thanks particularly to ericm979 and BangBang77. Here's what I decided based on what y'all said. 1. Selling one saw to focus on another is not an option but understandable 2. Keeping the 20" and...

Two questions 1. I have a Stihl MS 441C with a 20" bar. I'd like to upgrade it pretty substantially. From my reading here, it seems like the best things to do are a. Drill muffler b. Re-tune carb c. Add high flow oiler or else mod oiler to flow better d. Upgrade dogs e. Buy a 25 or 28" bar...

Yup, yup - I looked for that and missed it the first time, thank you. Reposting now.
