Hi everyone!
I have an Echo CS590 with a Oregon 24" guide bar and chain. Problem is the 2 studs that clamp the bar and chain bar are a little loose. The studs are 8mm and the guide bar slit is 12.5 mm. So the bar tip can move 6" or more before the studs are tightened.
I'm no professional but I'm wondering if thats acceptable and perhaps unsafe? Comments are gratefully welcome. I thought the Oregon bar would work as well and be cheaper than the Echo.
