Bar And Chain Combinations; Saw Chain Filing And File Gauges - Husqvarna EPA III Operator's Manual

Recommended cutting equipment for Canada
Following is a list of recommended cutting equipment for the Husqvarna chain saw models 435, 435e and 440e. The
combinations of powerhead, bar and chain meet all requirements outlined in the CSA Z62.1-03 Chainsaws and Z62.3-
04 Chainsaw Kickback standards.
The guide bar nose radius is determined by either the maximum number of teeth in the nose sprocket or the
corresponding maximum nose radius of a solid bar.
As we are listing the maximum guide bar nose radius, you may use a guide bar with smaller nose radius than in our list.
For guide bars of the same length, all sprocket-nose guide bars of the same pitch and having the same number of
sprocket teeth may be considered to have equivalent kickback energy.
A hard nose bar having the same length and nose radius as a sprocket-nose bar may be considered to have equivalent
or less kickback energy than the sprocket-nose bar.
We recommend that you as replacement use the listed bars and chains or "Type C Low-Kickback Saw Chains" which
are available at your dealer.

Bar and chain combinations

Chain saw models Husqvarna 435, 435e and 440e met the kickback performance requirements of ANSI B 175.1-2000
when tested with the combinations of bars and saw chains listed below. The saw chain Husqvarna H30 is also classified
as a low kickback saw chain since it met the requirements for low kickback saw chain outlined in ANSI B 175.1-2000.
We recommend to use only the listed combinations of bars and chains for chain saw models Husqvarna 435, 435e and
440e. Other chain saw models may not meet the kickback requirements when equipped with the listed bar and chain
combinations.
