Well my woodsmanpro ripping chain just arrived from Baileys, very nice. But I offer it up to the bar, and it's too short. So I double checked everything - 36" bar (large mount stihl), everywhere says 114 DL (3/8). The chain says 114 dl (3/8), and I count just to make sure. All checks out fine. And I'd say it's about 4-5 links too short at least. I measure the bar just in case, it's pretty much bang on 36" from the saw to tip.
So I'm assuming the old style narrow tip stihl bar has a different DL requirement (that's what this is). Does anyone know what this is? It's not really worth send the chain back to the US as it cost about £10, maybe I can trade it in for a new one at the local dealer?
I just can't understand what went wrong - it can't be any longer, and it seems narrower...
Can somewhat point out an error (maybe it's an obvious one...)?
