TECHNICAL DATA
Recommended original and replacement bar and chain combinations
Following is a list of recommended cutting equipment for the Husqvarna chain saw model 455 Rancher. The combinations of power head, 
bar and chain have been tested and found to be in accordance with the kickback and vibration requirements of ANSI B 175.1–2000.
The guide bar nose radius is determined by either the maximum number of teeth in the nose sprocket or the corresponding 
maximum nose radius of a solid bar.
The following list is the chain saw manufacturers recommendations. There may be other combinations available, which will also 
achieve kickback reduction.
As we are listing the maximum guide bar nose radius, you may use a guide bar with smaller nose radius than in our list. For guide 
bars of the same length, all sprocket-nose guide bars of the same pitch and having the same number of sprocket teeth may be 
considered to have equivalent kickback energy. A hard nose bar having the same length and nose radius as a sprocket-nose bar 
may be considered to have equivalent or less kickback energy than the sprocket-nose bar.
Bar and chain combinations
Chain saw model Husqvarna 455 Rancher met the kickback performance requirements of ANSI B 175.1-2000 when tested with 
the combinations of bars and saw chains listed below. The saw chains Husqvarna H30, H80 and H81 are also classified as a low 
kickback saw chain since it met the requirements for low kickback saw chain outlined in ANSI B 175.1-2000. We recommend to 
use only the listed combinations of bars and chains for chain saw model Husqvarna 455 Rancher. Other chain saw models may 
not meet the kickback requirements when equipped with the listed bar and chain combinations.
