Compatibility
This chain is designed to fit Greenworks 40V 20262 20292 Chainsaw. Verify your specific model number and existing chain dimensions before purchasing.
Installation notes
Power down the saw and disconnect the battery or spark plug lead. Remove the side cover and release bar tension. Take the old chain off the bar and sprocket, then thread the new chain into the bar groove, confirming the cutting edges face forward on the top rail. Set the tension so the chain pulls freely without sagging away from the bar, and do a brief test run to verify everything tracks correctly.
Common questions
Q: Will this 2-pack 12-inch chain fit my Greenworks 40V 20262, and is it also correct for the 20292 model?
Yes, this chain is made to fit Greenworks 40V models 20262 and 20292 that use a 12-inch bar and a 3/8 pitch chain. As long as your saw still has the original 12-inch setup, this is the correct replacement option for both models.
Q: Do I need to do anything special when installing this chain on my Greenworks 20292?
Make sure the cutting teeth on the top of the bar face forward before tightening the side cover. After installation, adjust the tension so the chain sits snugly against the bar but can still be pulled around by hand, then recheck tension after the first few cuts since new chains can stretch slightly.
Q: How should I maintain these 12-inch chains so they last longer on my Greenworks 40V chainsaw?
Keep the chain properly tensioned and make sure the bar oil reservoir is filled so the chain stays lubricated during use. It also helps to clean sawdust from the bar groove and sharpen the cutters when you notice slower cutting or the saw starting to throw fine dust instead of chips.
