Change of bar size

[Rob74]

Hi guys I know I've not been around for a few months but I have a quick question about bar size.

 

I bought a Mitox cs41 (ok stop laughing) last November and after returning to the shop 3 or 4 times due to it being c@#p they fitted a new carburettor but it was still rubbish so I chucked it on shelf and left it & bought a husqavana 135.

Fast forward to now and the Mrs said "can't you put a smaller bar and chain on it?"

 

So that's my question, can I put a 12/14" bar on it?

I asked mitox who said it's designed specifically for a 16". Now my husky says 12-16" bar so I would have thought the mitox would be similar.

 

If it's a stupid question tell me to sod off and I will leave it on the shelf but if I can drop a size I feel it could make the saw usable again.

Small bar is not a problem. It will cut better as well.

Thanks that was my way of thinking, do I just search the code on the bar but just look for a 12" bar & chain? Or am I missing something important

You could call your local dealer . Or skyland equipment will be able to sort you out. One of the site sponsors. You will need to keep the same size chain unless you swap the drive sprocket.

Just go onto any of the chain/bar selling websites and put in your make and model of saw.

and all the relevant bars/chains will be listed for you.

I think you have a choice of 13" 15" and 18" bars for that saw.

Sorry. I thought he wanted to change his bar on the 135.

Try the 14" Husqvarna bar and chain on the Mitox I bet it's the same fitting Husqvarna small factor.
