Do you know how to replace the red plastic "chain shortening hooks"? I contacted Thule and they stated I need to buy new chains!

I had the same problem and found out I had the wrong size chains. I needed them immediately so I had to buy from a local dealer. Amazon was great and took back the ones that did not fit. I followed the sizing instructions on Amazon website and they were still to small for my tires.

OMG..!! really !!!! I no have problems with my chains and now I don't have to see this red part and gave one idea ... but maybe you can use something metalic or you can use the long tail in plastic to tide any cable too look more nice you know ? what I am talking about ? well if yes used the more strong .... good luck

I would try a lowes or home depot, local hardware store for a high strength carabener , may need two , im sure they could hook you up with something, take the chains with you also. I had to lengthen the chain that completesthe triangle on the outside of the tire. Good Luck!

It is an 8 inch chain, couldn't find a part number for it even on the www.snowjoe.com site, but a generic 8 inch chain might work. You can call Snow Joe at 1-866-766-9563

I used an an (I-hook) and whatever length of light chain you may need and a quick link to hook the chain to the (I-hook) and chair ask about these things at a hardware store if your not familer with them. I hope this helped.

I would call the company, they are readily available by phone. Go to the WEB for their number. Also, I did tie each corner down with the supplied hooks and that made all the difference in its stabilty. We love ours!

You could always bolt longer bars to the current ones. Make your own bars out of wood or metal. In most cases still cheaper than the Thule version.

Nope. I hope you have better luck than I did. I did order an extra bar and chain as they were pretty cheap. I sent it all back and it was accepted. Never used the new bar or chain.

I used the existing long chain but had to shorten it by removing one link. The kit comes with the short chain and that works fine. You'll love it.

I used a 3/16" round file (I think they are called rat tail). The instructions show the angles that you need to maintain in order to get each surface as sharp as possible. In all honesty, I feel that the chain is inferior and needs a new one, but you may have better luck.

Take it apart, put the chain back on and tighten it up. Should work just fine.

I'm not able to verify this at the moment, but it seems I recall reading about replacement chains for the 20312 chainsaw in the product literature that came with the chainsaw. I don't see this literature online, or I would link it for you. I describes the low kickback type of chain, and the specs. But I don't think it was specific to Greenworks chainsaws. I would guess the same is true for the 20672 polesaw, but I don't own that one.

Carlie, you know, I'm not sure. I had to return mine as they didn't fit what I found out where Thule bars on my Soul. If I were you, I'd order them. Go to a Roof Rack place and see what bars they fit on, then return them if they don't. I know it's a hassle--but a good process of elimination. And besides, if you're protecting (like I was ) well over 6-digits in bicycles, I didn't want to chance them not fitting well.

If you need to replace the pnuematic arms in this system i suggest calling Thule as all their products have life time warranty. they will ask for the serial# on the unit and ask for a picture showing the problem with the unit. asfter that they will mail you a new set. ive done this and their customer support is very helpful.

Sharpen them, and learn how to do it. It is much easier than changing a chain. I use my dremel with the correct sharpening bit. Ask at hardware store.

Home depot or Lowe's will have it. Look for 10" replacement chain. They're standard.

I'm pretty sure it won't fit. I just removed my chains and didn't replace them with anything.
