FAQs

What is the main advantage of the S35G chain?

The S35G chain's primary advantage is its combination of reduced kickback for safety, long-lasting sharpness, and high cutting efficiency, designed to improve user productivity and safety.

Which Husqvarna chainsaw models is this chain compatible with?

This S35G saw chain is specifically designed for Husqvarna models 550XP Mark II and 550XP G Mark II.

How often should I sharpen the S35G chain?

Sharpen the chain when you notice a decrease in cutting performance or when it starts producing fine sawdust instead of chips. The frequency depends on usage and the type of wood being cut.

What does 'reduced kickback' mean for safety?

Reduced kickback means the chain is designed to lessen the severity of a sudden, forceful upward and backward motion of the chainsaw, which is a common cause of serious injury.

Can I use this chain on older Husqvarna models?

No, the S35G chain is specifically engineered for the 550XP Mark II and 550XP G Mark II models. Using it on incompatible models is not recommended and may be unsafe.

How do I maintain the low stretch characteristic?

Proper chain tensioning and regular cleaning are key. Ensure the chain is correctly tensioned according to your chainsaw's manual and keep the bar groove clean of debris.

Is this chain suitable for occasional home use?

While designed for professionals, consumers performing demanding everyday tasks will also benefit from its durability and efficiency. However, ensure it is compatible with your saw.

Troubleshooting

Chain not cutting efficiently

Ensure the chain is properly sharpened and tensioned. Check for adequate bar and chain lubrication. Clear any debris from the bar groove.

Chain is too loose or too tight

Consult your chainsaw's manual for the correct chain tensioning procedure. Adjust the tension screw as needed. A properly tensioned chain should be snug but still movable by hand with gloves.

Chain stretches excessively

While designed for low stretch, some initial stretching is normal. Re-tension the chain as per the manual. If excessive stretching persists, inspect for damage or wear.

Chain appears damaged

Immediately stop use. Inspect the chain for bent or broken teeth, cracked links, or excessive wear. Replace the chain if any significant damage is observed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This S35G saw chain is specifically designed to fit Husqvarna models 550XP Mark II and 550XP G Mark II. Always verify your chainsaw model number to ensure compatibility before purchase. Using an incompatible chain can lead to poor performance, damage to the saw, and safety hazards.

Setup: For optimal performance and safety, ensure the chain is correctly tensioned. Refer to your chainsaw's owner's manual for the specific procedure. Typically, this involves adjusting the tension screw until the chain is snug against the guide bar but can still be pulled around by hand with gloves. A properly tensioned chain should have minimal sag.

Care: To maximize the lifespan and performance of your S35G chain:

  1. Lubrication: Ensure the bar and chain are adequately lubricated with quality chainsaw oil before and during use. Check the oil level regularly.
  2. Sharpening: Sharpen the chain when it begins to show signs of dullness (e.g., fine sawdust instead of coarse chips). Use a 7/32" file and follow the recommended angles for your chain pitch (usually 20-30 degrees).
  3. Cleaning: Clean the chain and bar groove periodically, especially after heavy use, to remove sawdust and debris that can impede performance and cause premature wear.
  4. Inspection: Regularly inspect the chain for any signs of damage, such as bent or broken teeth, or excessive wear.
