Compatibility
This chain is designed to fit EGO Power+ CS1613 / CS1604 / CS1600 / CS1610 / CS1611 16-Inch 56V Chainsaw. Check your owner’s manual or the existing chain’s markings to verify pitch, gauge, and drive link count before ordering.
Installation notes
Begin by shutting off the saw and disconnecting the power source. Loosen the bar-mounting fasteners and remove the side cover to access the chain. Slide the worn chain off, seat the replacement around the sprocket and into the bar groove with cutters pointing in the direction of rotation. Tighten the tensioning screw until there is slight play but no droop, then secure the cover.
Common questions
Q: Will this 2-pack 16-inch chain fit my EGO Power+ CS1613, and does it also work on the CS1604 and CS1611?
Yes, this replacement chain is made for the EGO Power+ 16-inch models CS1613, CS1604, CS1600, CS1610, and CS1611. If your saw uses the stock 16-inch bar from one of those models, this chain should fit correctly.
Q: Do I need any special tools to install this chain on my EGO CS1600, and how tight should it be?
You typically just need the standard bar/side cover tool that came with your chainsaw to loosen the cover, mount the chain, and set tension. Adjust it so the chain sits snug against the 16-inch bar but can still be pulled around by hand while wearing gloves, then recheck tension after the first few cuts.
Q: How often should I sharpen or replace these chains on my EGO CS1610 or CS1604?
That depends on what you’re cutting, but if the saw starts producing fine dust instead of chips, pulls to one side, or needs extra pressure, the chain likely needs sharpening. Replace the chain if the cutters are heavily worn, damaged, or if repeated sharpening no longer restores good cutting performance.
