Overview
This aftermarket 8-inch replacement chain is designed to fit select DeWalt pole saw models. Chains wear out through normal use — cutters dull, drive links thin, and the chain stretches beyond what the tensioner can compensate. This replacement matches factory specifications so you can swap it in and keep working without a trip to the service shop.
Key specifications
- Bar length: 8”
- Drive links: 34DL
- Type: Semi-chisel (aftermarket replacement)
Compatibility
Engineered to match the specifications of select DeWalt pole saw models, this chain drops in without modification. Before ordering, verify the three critical numbers — pitch, gauge, and drive-link count — against the stamp on your guide bar. A mismatch in any one dimension means the chain won’t fit safely.
Installation notes
Disconnect the battery or unplug the pole saw before handling the chain. Release the bar-cover nuts or tool-free knob, remove the cover, and slip the old chain off the bar nose and drive sprocket. Seat the new chain with the cutters facing forward on the top of the bar, reattach the cover, and adjust tension until the chain snaps back when pulled slightly from the bar. Run the saw briefly at idle to verify smooth tracking before making your first cut.
Common questions
Q: Will this Morocca 8” replacement chain fit my DeWalt DCPS620B pole saw, or is it only for the DCPS620M1 kit?
Yes, it fits the DeWalt DCPS620, DCPS620B, and DCPS620M1 as long as your saw uses the 8-inch bar and 34 drive link chain setup. The “B” and “M1” refer to tool-only versus kit versions, so the chain fitment is based on the bar and chain spec, not the battery package.
Q: This says 34DL and 8” bar length—how do I confirm that’s the right chain for my DeWalt 20V MAX XR pole saw before installing it?
Check the markings on your current chain or bar for the 8-inch size and 34 drive links, since those are the key match points for this replacement chain. If your saw is one of the listed DeWalt DCPS620-series models and still has the original bar, this chain is typically the correct fit.
Q: Do I need to sharpen or oil these chains before using them, and is there anything special to watch for during installation?
The chain should still be run with proper bar-and-chain oil every time you use it, because a dry chain will wear quickly and cut poorly. During installation, make sure the cutting teeth face the correct direction on the top of the bar, then tension the chain so it snaps back lightly but still moves freely by hand.
