easy, uncomplicated answer: Yes, you must use the powersharp bar and chain together (they both come in this kit)

It comes with its own bar and chain. The chain is SPECIFICALLY designed to work with this sharpening system. It will NOT sharpen other types of chains. The PowerSharp chain will cut any size tree in accordance with the size specifications of the chainsaw and bar size. It is absolutely stunning how this simple device improves your ability to cut, since you can sharpen at will.

You need to do some research on you Stihl M351 and see if it is a roller combination? If so sprocket at engine may need to be changed? Also, need to know bar length? Oregon bar and chain is the way to go. You just need to contact Oregon with your model number and year to get the right set up. Hope I helped! Dan

First, loosen the two bolts holding the chain bar in place. Then locate the screw at the base of the chain bar. Turn thisscrew until the chain is tight, but still rides easily along the bar. I've found that this saw operates best with a fairly tightchain compared to other models. I tighten my chain until I can only pull the chain away from the bar about a quarter ofan inch from the midpoint of the chain bar. Be sure to securely tighten the two bolts holding the bar when you have thechain tightened.

I looked at the male end that has the battery end and took off the middle part where the two ends meet to the chainsaw and shorted it to one long part of female to male ends and you have a 4foot range to the chainsaw. But there noway to take the chainsaw , to make it work like that. like a normal chainsaw would. the exstra 4foot is better on your back anyway.

Count the links on your existing chain. The links are the funny looking things that go into the bar. Get a chain with the same count. This listing if for a 52 link chain. The manual for your chainsaw calls for a Craftman part # 51192 Looking that up they substituted 91PX045G which shows a 45 link chain http://www.amazon.com/Oregon-91PX045G-Chamfer-Chisel-Kickback/dp/B006DDGDHC Again count the links to be sure. Good luck

No. If you're replacing a big chainring, you can use the existing bolts. If you're adding the Guard to a 2x setup, you may need to get longer bolts to accomidate the guard's extra width.

We used a very heavy duty chain. We bought enough length to loop around limb and hang down to where we wanted the chair to hang. We allowed extra length around the limb to allow it to grow without the chain growing in to the tree. The chain had to be very heavy duty for the s hook on the chair to fit through it. I think it was like a 1400 lb capacity chain. The first one we bought wasn't big enough for the s clamp. The chair rotates a little when you first sit in it but then stops. You may have to select a link up or down if it faces a way in a direction 90 degrees from where you want to face. Hope that helps.

The only problem I see that when you add extension you may have to support the rail in the middle otherwise it may sag or deflect in the middle that may cause the chain sag too. Make sure when you add support it has to be attached on the top of the rail to clear the chain interference. This is 3/4hp opener will do the job. Good luck.ss

Yes you have to play around a little as i did. I switch out the sprockets on mine. That`s just that my chain is two links short, but it should work well. Remember i used my old sprockets, just clean and grease them.

I'm not able to verify this at the moment, but it seems I recall reading about replacement chains for the 20312 chainsaw in the product literature that came with the chainsaw. I don't see this literature online, or I would link it for you. I describes the low kickback type of chain, and the specs. But I don't think it was specific to Greenworks chainsaws. I would guess the same is true for the 20672 polesaw, but I don't own that one.

you should take the original bar and chain combo to get a suitable match. don't trust generic replacements.

My girlfriend weighs 100lbs and she didn't have any issues with the kickback cutting some trees in the back, honestly I can't think of any reason to go with a low kick back chain if you need any serious cutting done. My saw came with a low kickback and I couldn't get anything done. Replaced it with one of these and cut through several trees in the same time it took to do one with the low kickback and I did it with less effort because you are holding the saw a lot longer per cut with a low kick back chain. Low kickback chains make the work exhausting, I hate em. If you're elderly or a small child, maybe low kickback is the way to go, but then why are you using a chainsaw lol.

I used an an (I-hook) and whatever length of light chain you may need and a quick link to hook the chain to the (I-hook) and chair ask about these things at a hardware store if your not familer with them. I hope this helped.

I see you've been waiting for an answer for a long time. I have the very same question. It looks like on all the units I've seen that you have to thread the chain through them, which would be easy for chains on geared bikes. I'm gonna guess that it would be a problem using one of these which would be a shame.

When the chain is new it tends to stretch as it gets hot. This will require you to adjust the tightness afterabout 15 minutes of use. Make sure you tighten the chain according to the instruction manual, so that youcan only pull it away from the bar no more than the width of the chain. Every chain saw I've owned requires thissame adjustment on a new chain.

Even if it does, you don't want it. The rakers are huge making it nearly impossible to sharpen. This chain is for people that don't trust themselves with an aggressive chain. If you have a 460 I'm assuming you can handle the machine. Go to your local dealer and get a real chain.

Yeah more then likely, i'm having a bit of an issue because my chain saw is electricyour gas McCullah should fit just fine , with the special places for an extra chain, sharpener, instruction book, bottle of oil and safty glasses heck you got room for the lether gloves too. the bar guard isn't fixed permantly into the housing, but you can slide it into the slots so it is or let it be loose. i`m really pleased with it. it keeps the shelf clean and oil free no greesey saw dust ile and the saw stays nice over the winter. i only need the saw about 3 times a year, but when ya do need it it`s all together.
