What this is
Two replacement chains for Greenworks’ 40V 12” chainsaws — the 20262 and the models built on the same saw: 20292, 20202, 2000219 and 20082. Greenworks’ own chain for these saws is 2905002. This pack is cut to the same size: 12”, 3/8” low-profile pitch, .050” gauge, 45 drive links.
Two Greenworks 40V 12-inch saws, two gauges
Greenworks has sold more than one “40V 12-inch chainsaw”, and the chains are not interchangeable:
| Greenworks chain | Gauge | Saws |
|---|---|---|
| 2905002 | .050” | 20262, 20292, 20202, 2000219 — this chain |
| 2997802 | .043” | CS40B210 / CS40B00, and the 24V CS24L410 / CS24L00 |
Both chains are 12”, 3/8” low-profile with 45 drive links, so the gauge is the only difference. A .050” chain won’t seat in a .043” bar groove, and a .043” chain is loose in a .050” groove. Check the model number on the saw’s label, or the gauge stamped on the bar, before you order.
Fitting it
Greenworks’ manuals for these saws label a chain tension knob and a chain cover knob, but the 20262 manual’s adjustment steps also have you turn the chain tensioning bolt with the hexagon ring spanner supplied with the saw. Follow the manual that came with your saw. The manual also says to use only manufacturer-specified replacement bars and chains.
