jonsered chain tensioner

[Logrover]

i have a jonsered 2065 with 18" bar. I bought a 15" as im doing a felling course and thats the specified length....went to put it on and the tensioner bolt is too short, the pin has about an 3cmm further it can go back but its too short for the bar. Going to get a cheap bolt thats longer...anyone know the thread???

sounds like either you have the wrong bar or the wrong chain for the bar.

 

Edit: There is a possibility of you having bought a small mount bar when you need large or vice versa - my 2163 was small mount despite it bing a similar size to a husk 372 on big mount.

Ah i see il check tomorrow but if the oil holes all line up then il still just stick a longer bolt in! a have a jonsered chain 56 link and 56 link 15" bar large hole. Just need the tensioner pin a bit further back and since theres loads of room left............... cheaper fix.....

Just checked an online shop and matched the saw i have to the bar number and chain and its correct so the bolt is too short............
