how do you change the chain on a 440E? thanks

Changing the chain is similar to any other two nut chainsaw, there is a crank handle instead of two lock nuts. Loosen the crank and remove it. Then loosen the chain tension a bit, and wiggle the cover off. Slide the bar in and remove it, the chain can now be removed. Putting the saw back together is easy as well, the chain brake and chain tension system are inside the metal side cover which is very easy to clean. The tool free chain tension works great, but rarely need to adjust it, so I guess never needing to adjust the chain I really didn't the tool free option of the e series. But do like it.

There is one bolt on the chain guard that you unscrew. The cover comes off and you switch out the chain. Replace the cover and screw the bolt on finger tight and then tighten the chain. After the chain is tight use the provided tool and tighten the bolt the rest of the way and your good to go.

Losen the tension on the thumb wheel then in screw the black knob with lever

Go to page 18 of your operator's manual and follow the instructions for the 440e under "Fitting the bar and chain! or at www.husqvarna.com

Electrician installer told me that you pull descending chain to change speeds. They set at medium speed and it's fine.

I actually just did a 1x10 conversion with 32 tooth up front and a 42 tooth in back. Still works flawlessly. Definitely start with a new chain though,narrow wide chain ring up front and One Up extended cog in back with the special mad 16 tooth cog that replaces your 15 and 17 tooth cog.

Yes. There are special instructions for "Changing to a Top/ceiling Mount". You need to remove the bracket covers and turn the clutch 90 degrees. This is similar to what you do when changing from a right-hand chain to left-hand. Be careful when you slide the covers off as the parts can come out if not held in.

You will need to extend/replace chain and cord which is very easy. a swag kit is what you need from any hardware/amazon store.

This can REPLACE the 42t that you have but will only protect to 34t. The 104mm is a chainring measurement. See this link if you would like a more detailed explanation: http://www.wolftoothcycling.com/pages/how-to-measure-bolt-circle-diameter-bcd.

Have you taken off the metal bracket? You should watch YouTube videos on how to change angel eyes on an E90. That's how I figured out how to do it �

Well Mike, you ask a question, but don't go into to much detail. So I am going to guess you want to remove the chain and replace it with some kind of belt. The drive gear on the motor is made to accept the chain, but may be jerry rigged to accept a pulley of some kind. Now the question of the guide bar? Will this be part of the modification, because I really don't know what it will work in your modification? If its removed, also the structure of the plastic will be a problem. I'm interested to see what your attempting to do, as a kid I would enjoy repairing things and seeing how to make something do something other then it was made for, so good luck and the words that any modification will void the warranty. Good luck.

Put it in its highest gear front and back. Flip the bike upside down and unhook the cable. Adjust H (high limit) screw until the the chain comes off the derailer in perfect alignment with the sprocket. Turn crank slowly and look closely through the chain link as if meets the chain. Pull the cable snug by hand without moving the derailer and tighten. Test ride it through the gears. If it doesn't want to go to 7 put it back in high and see if cable is tight. If so screw the barrel adjuster on derailer in. If it isn't tight adjust the high limit screw again. If doesn't want to shift to first simply screw the barrel adjuster out ward. Once you get them all working keep it all clean and lubed as well as tweak and adjust as needed.

As pipernoter wrote, get manual PDF from worx website. Unscrew locking knob to take tension off chain. Remove locking plate and remove loose chain from sprocket; you're just doing manual assembly instructions in reverse order. Then follow instructions in original order to reassemble with new chain.

Mine came with the mounting bracket with spacers for different diameter frames. Yes you have to take apart the chain to get the old one off and new one on. It sound like it just needs to be adjusted to go out further or the deraileur is mounted to low. I hope I was able to help.

I have used mine Several Times and only had the chain come off once, you need to open the plastic cover, place the chain in the groove, and then tighten the chain,

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

Do not assume that the chain was put on correctly at the factory, mine wasn't and it took me a while to figure out that it was put on backwards - so much for quality control. I would take the chain and bar off and reassemble it. Check to make sure the bar extender pin is in the hole in the bar. Good luck

On the one side you have to slightly loosen the to nuts and there is a silver screw driver slot you turn. once you have the chain to the tightness you want tighten the two bolts again. Good luck. I would say if the chainsaw is under with extended warranty return it while you still can. It is junk and echo will not honor its own warrenty

Thanks.. I've done that.. I hope I get an answer.. I've been unable to find a chain that fits my bike.. I hope they can help me.

Yes Patrick but to be on the safe, here's a trick I learned that's fool proof. All you do is count the small cutting blades on your old chain and that would be the chain number you need, ie: S49, S50, S52. I tell you this because I have a Poulan Pro and I was told that I needed a S52 but it turned out too long and I ended up going through all the trouble of returning it. So I went to the local hardware store and a very helpful employee just counted the links on my old one and it came out to 49 so he said I needed an S49 and voila! it worked perfectly. I hope this info helps but of course if you don't have the old chain available then we would have to assume that the 52 stands for 52 cutting links.
