When to Replace

  • Binding or failure of the tensioner slide to move the guide bar.
  • Missing or damaged mounting hardware that prevents the bar from being held securely.

Installation Tips

  • Ensure the chainsaw is turned off and the spark plug wire is disconnected before servicing.
  • Clean the bar mounting area of wood chips and oil debris to ensure smooth slide movement.
  • Lightly lubricate the tensioner screw threads to reduce friction during adjustment.
  • Align the tensioner pin carefully with the hole in the guide bar before tightening the side cover nuts.
  • Do not overtighten, as this may damage the adjustment mechanism or lead to excessive chain wear.

This kit replaces OEM part number 1123 007 1000 (also written as 1123-007-1000 or 11230071000).
You likely need a new tensioner if you notice the chain repeatedly loosening during operation, if the tensioning screw feels stripped or spins without moving the bar, or if the tensioner pin has snapped off, preventing the bar from being held in place.
Installation is straightforward and typically takes about 10–15 minutes. You will need a screwdriver to remove the side cover and a small punch or needle-nose pliers to remove the retaining clip or pin holding the old tensioner in place. Ensure the bar is removed before attempting to swap the assembly.
Keep the area around the tensioner clean of wood chips and debris, as buildup can force the tensioner out of alignment. Additionally, avoid over-tightening the chain; the chain should be snug against the bottom of the bar but still able to be pulled around the bar by hand with moderate resistance.
