For the Craftsman gas chainsaw model 358356090, we look up the serial number by first finding it on the saw itself; it’s printed on the same ID area as the model number. On this model, the manual indicates the model number is under the handle with the serial number, so checking under the handle is the right starting point. See the 358356090 owner's manual for the exact ID label location and parts-ordering details.

On this Craftsman chainsaw, the serial number is typically on an ID label or stamping located under the handle (the same place the model number is shown). Clean the area first so the characters are readable.

• Turn the saw off and let it cool completely
• Engage the chain brake and remove the spark plug wire for safety
• Look under the top handle for an ID label or stamped numbers
• Wipe away oil and sawdust with a rag; use a soft brush if needed
• Write the serial number exactly as shown (include any letters)

The serial number helps identify production details, but for ordering repair parts we use the model number first and then match the correct part number/part ID.

Using the correct model and serial information prevents ordering the wrong chainsaw parts (fuel system, starter, bar adjuster hardware) and reduces downtime when you are troubleshooting issues like hard starting or fuel leaks.

After you locate the ID information, order parts from the parts list for model 358356090 on this page, or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect. If you are chasing a fuel leak or dry/cracked line, a common replacement is the fuel line 530069216.

The numbers stamped on a chainsaw chain identify the chain’s fit and cutting setup, mainly pitch, gauge, and drive link count. On your Craftsman 358356090 gas chainsaw, matching the chain’s gauge to the guide bar groove is critical for safe operation; confirm the exact specs in the 358356090 owner's manual.

Most chains show some combination of these identifiers:

• Pitch: the spacing of the chain’s rivets (must match the sprocket and bar tip sprocket).
• Gauge: the thickness of the drive links where they ride in the bar groove (must match the bar groove).
• Drive link count: the number of drive links (determines chain length for a specific bar).
• Cutter type/sequence: may indicate full-complement, semi-skip, or skip patterns.
• File size or sharpening system: sometimes shown on packaging; sharpening guidance is in the manual.

Use these checks before you buy or install a replacement chain:

• Read the numbers stamped on the guide bar (many bars list pitch, gauge, and drive links).
• Count the drive links if the old chain is available.
• Confirm the chain sits fully in the bar groove and moves freely by hand (engine off).
• Set correct chain tension before running; a loose chain can derail.
• If you install a new chain, follow the manual’s sharpening and setup guidance.

If pitch or gauge is wrong, the chain can bind, wear the bar and sprocket quickly, or derail. A properly matched chain cuts cleaner, reduces forcing the saw through the cut, and makes sharpening more effective (the manual notes to sharpen when chips become small and powdery).

For model 358356090, use the parts list for your exact bar and chain setup, then order by model number and part description. You can also search by model number on Sears PartsDirect if you are sourcing additional chain and bar-related items.
