Homelite Super EZ Auto Help

[Spudcat]

I have a Super EZ that was given to me. It runs strong and originally came with a 16" chain setup but I think it has the power to turn an 18" chain. Does anyone know who makes an 18" guide bar that will fit this saw? Any info would help. Thanks

Welcome to AS. There are a lot of Homelite owners around here. Here is a link to your saw.

Here is the bar mount pattern.

18" bar is going to be pretty long for that saw, especially if you are still running the stock 3/8 chain. You will notice the reduction in cutting speed and 'power' if you go to 18".

The Super EZ, or at least my Super EZ, uses a small mount husky bar. Make sure the oil holes match up.

Nother EZ tip.


The much desirable 3 shoe clutch is the same one that is on the 150AO.



I learned this after buying one off of the bay (i have 3 150 parts saws), got a good deal though.

Thanks for the replies and the links...


retoocs555, would you suggest staying with the 16"? I figured there would be some power reduction. Will it be significant enough to warrant not going to the 18"? Thanks for the help all.
