Questions people ask
What size chain does an Efco 181 take?
The Efco 181 with a 20" bar takes 3/8" pitch, .050" gauge chain with 72 drive links (Oregon D72).
What bar fits an Efco 181?
A bar with the D009 or D024 mount, in one of these lengths: 20".
Can I use a chain with the same length but different pitch?
No. Pitch and gauge have to match the bar and sprocket, and the drive link count has to match the bar. A chain that is off on any of the three will not fit or run safely.
