Stihl light 04 bar
« on: February 24, 2023, 02:55:16 PM »
So I went to pick up a bar today and the guy told me the light 04 is supposed to be replacing the rollomatic.  Said the o lay difference is the graphics.  Anyone know if this is true?  Anyways I have a 034 super and was wondering if it will be fine running this new bar on my saw.  Can’t find much online about it.  The next nearest shop is hour away should I keep shopping for rollomatic or try this new bar.  I know 034 isn’t listed on bar package.

Your 034 has the 03 bar mount, so it should be fine. 
Just make sure the L04 bar you get is the 3003 serialnumber barmount, I noticed a smaller L04 bar here in Norway now, with the 3005 smaller saw mount. Might be the same in your neck of the woods.

What chain are you using?]

Is the Light 04 not a narrow kerf bar that came out with their new 325 narrow kerf chain 23RSPro?

I have a 3005 mount Light 04 that I use on my MS241 with the above chain.  It measures 0.15 wide.  The old bars for use with 23RS measured if I recall 0.16.  Otherwise, same bar with a fancy paint job.

Could the '04' = 4 rivet nose?

There is a light 06 also, it has 6 rivets.  For 3/8 standard chain?
And I see a light P01 that has 1 rivet.

They claim the core is fiber reinforced polymer??  Therefore the 'light'

Stihl is very confusing.
