Additional Information

Chainsaw bar 795-00542 helps maintain cutting precision and stability by securely holding the cutting chain in place. This 16-inch bar provides a solid guide path for the chain, allowing clean, consistent cuts when trimming limbs or sawing logs. A worn bar can cause uneven cuts or increase the risk of the chain jumping off track.

If your chainsaw shows signs of cutting irregularities or difficulty maintaining chain tension, replacing the bar can restore smooth performance. Before starting installation, let the engine cool and disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental startup. Wear work gloves to protect your hands and use a screwdriver and wrench to remove the old bar and attach the new one. Be sure to set proper chain tension after installation.

Check the bar regularly for signs of wear and replace it as needed to keep your chainsaw cutting efficiently and safely. Chainsaw bar 795-00542 replaces part number 795-00502.
