Gave up on fixing the 028 for now and the Jons630 was a bit heavy on the last load of wood IMG_0706.jpegso took the opportunity to treat myself to something “new”. Found a local 261 on FB marketplace, picked it up earlier today.

Came with a 20” .325 sprocket and bar but the guy had a 3/8 chain in it (at least I think so, wasn’t sitting tight on the nose… see pic). Changed it out with an 18” rollomatic bar and chain that I had on the 028 (3003 008 6617) and seems smooth now.

Question is - looking at a new chain for the bar on Baileys and it’s got a couple different semi chisel Woodland Pros: the 23SC74 and the 20SC74. Main diff in the specs is what chain it replaces…. But I have no idea what chain is on there now (it’s marked Stihl but can’t really see anything else).

Anyone know the difference?
