10-inch replacement chain fitment for Toro 51870 / 51870T pole saws

This Opuladuo 2PC 10 Inch Pole Saw Chain is intended for Toro 51870 and 51870T pole chain saw models. If you have one of those saws and it uses a 10-inch bar, this replacement set is designed as a convenient way to keep a fresh chain ready to install.
The package includes 2 pieces of 10-inch chain, which is useful if you want one chain in service and one sharpened spare on hand.
Will this chain fit your saw?

Start with the simplest check: your saw should be a Toro 51870 or Toro 51870T Pole Chain Saw, and it should use a 10 in. bar. That is the primary fitment given for this product.
To confirm chain fit more carefully, compare the chain specifications shown on your current bar, chain, or in your saw’s manual. The key items to match are:
- Bar length: 10 in.
- Pitch
- Gauge
- Drive-link count
All four need to match your saw’s setup for proper fit and safe operation. Bar length alone is not enough, because multiple 10-inch chains can exist with different pitch, gauge, or drive-link counts.

If your current chain is missing, too worn to read, or you are unsure about pitch, gauge, or drive-link count, the safest approach is to verify those specs from the bar markings or the owner’s manual before ordering.
Replacing the chain
Replacing a pole saw chain is usually straightforward, but always work carefully.
- Power the saw off completely and disconnect it from its power source before touching the chain or bar.
- Loosen the side cover and remove the bar/chain cover so you can take off the old chain.
- Lift the old chain off the sprocket and bar, then clean sawdust and debris from the bar groove and cover area.
- Install the new 10-inch chain onto the bar and around the drive sprocket, making sure the cutting edges face the correct direction along the top of the bar.
- Reinstall the cover, then adjust chain tension so the chain sits snugly on the bar but can still be pulled around by hand with a gloved hand.
- Tighten everything securely and recheck tension after a short test run, since a new chain can seat in and loosen slightly.
A chain that is too loose can derail. A chain that is too tight can wear the bar, sprocket, and motor more quickly.
Keeping it sharp

A sharp chain makes a pole saw cut faster, safer, and with less strain on the saw.
- Touch up the cutters regularly instead of waiting until the chain is very dull. If the saw starts making fine dust instead of chips, it is usually time to sharpen.
- Keep the chain properly tensioned. An overly loose chain cuts poorly and can wear unevenly.
- Avoid contacting dirt, rocks, or fencing with the chain tip, since that can dull a sharp edge very quickly.
If you rotate between the two included chains, you can keep one sharpened and ready while using the other.
FAQ
Does this fit every 10-inch pole saw?
No. This chain is listed for Toro 51870 / 51870T Pole Chain Saw models. Even among 10-inch saws, pitch, gauge, and drive-link count must match.
How many chains are included?
The package includes 2 pieces of 10-inch chain.
Do I only need to match the bar length?
No. You should also confirm pitch, gauge, and drive-link count. A 10-inch chain can still be wrong for your saw if those other specs do not match.
When should I replace the chain instead of sharpening it?
Replace the chain when it is damaged, excessively worn, no longer holds an edge well, or has stretched beyond proper adjustment range. Keeping a spare from the 2-piece pack makes routine maintenance easier.
