Will a Poulan bar from a 2775 Woodsman fit a Echo CS 510 ?

Tom,
Looking at the Oregon selector guide -both saws use a
Pro-lite 160GLGK041 bar or a bar and chain combo
160GLGK041/33SL 066G.That is 16" bar .325 pitch .050
gauge.Here is the Oregon selector site http://www.oregonchain.com/selguide.htm

Thanks for the info , but was asking about the factory Poulan bar.
I picked up a junk Poulan saw and am waiting for my new Echo.
The Poulan saw had a new blade and chain so i grab it. I know the chain fits but I think the bar is differant.

Both saws use the same style bar mount
The K041 oregon style is used on both machines
The factory poulan bar will fit the echo

Boy, you guys must have different books than I have.

I don't believe they are interchangeable. The Poulan listing calls for an A041 pattern, and the Echo a D176. (The bar adjust dog holes are much further apart on the Echo pattern)

There are 2 different Echo's called the CS-510
The current production CS-510 which uses the K041 bars
Then there was the old CS-510EVL which used the D176 bars
Since he stated " waiting for my new Echo"
I assumed he was referring to current production
K041 bars would be for .325 chain A041 bars are for 3/8 lo pro
The mounting is the same pattern with the K041 having a wider heel
But i of course could be reading it totally wrong
