No chain tesion adjustmen older (yellow) Remington EL.1 chain saw

Take your chainsaw to a saw shop that repairs chainsaws. They should be able to make one for you or look one up and order it for you. I have found shops in the yellow pages looking under saws.

I bought this chain without first examining the "count" of my old chain. I found this new chain had 39 drive-links while my OLD chain had 40 links. My 10" Remington saw had enough chain-tensioning adjustment to compensate for that missing link and this new 39-link chain runs fine... cuts very well. Happy.

Hi jvaltha,

Here is a website that carries the chain for your EL-1 saw: http://shoppingcart.msservicecompany.com/default.aspx?ext=true&itemid=091374S&size=small The part number is a replacement for the original chain, which Remington must not offer any more.

That same site also carries a chain for your LNT 8 saw, but there are different subcategores, LNT1, LNT2, and 8A and B. I'll paste the address for the page where you have to choose your option: http://www.desaparts.com/remington-chainsaw.html

FYI, You don't need to buy a remington chain to fit your saws. Just buy a chain that is the right length and matches the rest of the specs on your chain, the pitch etc. .050,.025, and so many teeth per inch and so forth. Then you can buy locally.

Hope this helps. If it does, I'd appreciate a 4 thumbs up...keeps me working. Thanks,

Handie Andie

Look up Oregon saw on the web for bars and chains to fit nearly every saw made. Good luck!

PartsFor.com has them for $16.95 plus shipping. I'm sure you found one before this.

50 drive links; 3/8 pitch; and 0.050 gauge if an original 14" bar your, choose your chain here:
Oregon Bar & Chain Selector
http://www.oregonchain.com/pro/lookups/selguide.aspx?BusId=OCS&SellReg=USA&LangId=ENG
Input "Remington; EL-1; 14"; All; All; All"
The one installed is probably green (low chance of kickback), all of them will work provided it is the original bar.

If you have more questions or need additional help please reply below and I will get back to you. HTH & Good Luck.

Thank You for using FixYa.

I input "Remington; EL-1; 14"; All; All; All" here:
Oregon Bar & Chain Selector
http://www.oregonchain.com/pro/lookups/selguide.aspx?BusId=OCS&SellReg=USA&LangId=ENG
It returned "91VG050G, 91VX050G or 91VXL050G". Please read the triangular warning placards. The original chain is most likely green.

Column 4 says a 14" chain has 50 drive links (the part in the bar groove". Please count them, if you get a different number try a different length bar. The Oregon part number can be ordered on line or if given to a local merchant fabricated in their facility.

Mitch if you attempted what is in the manual, and it is not working we would have to see and touch the saw to determine what has failed. If you loosened the bar bolts before trying the adjuster and it did not work, I suggest a trip to a local saw shop.
