Overview
Designed as a drop-in replacement for EGO CS1400 / CS1401 / CS1403 Chain Saw models, this chain restores your saw’s cutting ability to like-new condition. Comes in a convenient 3-pack, giving you a ready spare. Running a dull chain forces the motor to work harder and shortens the life of your bar, making periodic replacement essential.
Key specifications
- Bar length: 14”
- Quantity: 3 chains per pack
Compatibility
Engineered for direct compatibility with EGO CS1400 / CS1401 / CS1403 Chain Saw. Cross-reference your saw’s model number with the product listing to confirm compatibility.
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 14-inch replacement chain fit my EGO CS1401, or is it only for the CS1400?
Yes, this 3-piece 14-inch chainsaw chain set is made to fit the EGO CS1400, CS1401, and CS1403 models. If your saw uses the stock 14-inch bar, these chains are the correct fit for those specific EGO chainsaws.
Q: Do I need any special tools to install one of these chains on my EGO CS1403?
No special tools are usually needed beyond what you normally use to loosen the side cover and adjust chain tension on your CS1403. Just make sure the chain is seated correctly in the bar groove and around the drive sprocket, then tension it so it snaps back lightly but still moves freely by hand.
Q: How often should I sharpen or replace these 14-inch chains on an EGO CS1400?
That depends on what you’re cutting, but if the saw starts throwing fine dust instead of chips or you need to force it through the wood, it’s time to sharpen the chain. Replace the chain if the cutters are heavily worn, the chain stretches excessively, or you see damaged drive links or cracked cutters.
