Overview

Key specifications
- Bar length: 6”
Compatibility
This replacement chain works with Remington 111409-01. Always confirm your saw’s model number and bar length before ordering to ensure proper fit.
Installation notes
Disconnect the battery or unplug the pole saw before beginning any chain work. Remove the bar cover, take off the spent chain, and lay the new one into the bar groove with teeth oriented in the correct cutting direction. After reattaching the cover, set the chain tension so there is slight play but no sag under the bar. Run the saw briefly and recheck tension after the chain seats itself.
Common questions
Q: Will this 6 inch pole saw chain fit my Remington 111409-01, or do I need to match anything else besides the bar length?
Yes, this chain is intended for the Remington 111409-01 with a 6-inch bar. Bar length is the first thing to confirm, but you should also make sure your existing setup is the original 6-inch bar and sprocket arrangement for that model so the chain tracks and tensions correctly.
Q: I’m replacing the chain on my Remington 111409-01. Do I need to sharpen this chain first, or is it ready to install and use?
A replacement chain like this is typically ready to install and use right away, so no pre-sharpening should be needed. After installation, set the chain tension so it sits snug on the 6-inch bar, add bar and chain oil, and recheck tension after the first few minutes of cutting since new chains can stretch slightly.
Q: My current 6 inch chain on the Remington 111409-01 keeps loosening during use. Is that a sign the chain is wrong, or just normal maintenance?
Some loosening during the first few uses can be normal, especially with a new chain as it seats into the bar and drive system. If it keeps happening, inspect the bar, tensioner, and drive sprocket for wear, and make sure the chain is installed in the correct cutting direction and adjusted so the drive links stay engaged in the bar groove.
