Compatibility
Fits EGO MPS1001 plus additional models with matching bar-mount specs. Cross-reference your chainsaw’s model and serial number with the compatibility table to confirm correct fitment before installing.
Installation notes
Remove the clutch cover and take off the spent bar and chain. Wipe down the bar pad and blow out the oiler port. Position the new bar, thread the chain onto the sprocket and around the bar groove making sure the cutters face forward on top. Use the tension screw to take up slack until the tie straps just lift off the bar rail, then secure the cover firmly.
Common questions
Q: Will this 3PCS 10 inch chainsaw chain and guide bar combo fit my EGO MPS1001 pole saw, or is it only for standard handheld chainsaws?
Yes, this combo is made for the EGO MPS1001 and matches the 10-inch bar length with a 3/8 pitch chain setup used on that attachment. As long as your saw is the MPS1001 and uses the original 10-inch bar configuration, this replacement should fit correctly.
Q: Do I need to replace both the guide bar and chain at the same time, or can I just install one of the included 10 inch chains on my current bar?
You can install just a new chain if your current bar is still straight, the groove is not worn wide, and the nose sprocket turns freely. If the bar shows uneven rail wear, pinching, or poor chain tracking, replacing both together usually gives better cutting performance and helps the new 3/8 pitch chain last longer.
Q: What’s the correct way to tension and maintain these chains on the EGO MPS1001 after installation?
After installing the chain on the 10-inch guide bar, tighten it so the chain sits snugly against the bar but can still be pulled around by hand with gloves. Recheck tension after the first few cuts since a new chain can stretch slightly, and keep the bar oil topped off and the bar groove clean to reduce heat and premature wear.
