    I think that the fitment for the 400i is the same as the usual 3003 series for those size saws, if so the part number is 3003 000 9413. I have one here which I use on the 361. It goes OK but I use the 18 and 20" bars more as they are just better in terms of reach down when you are standing. Having said that, chain speed is wicked haha.

    This is the manual snip for bar size so I think they are the same bars. Whether you can get one in NZ at the mo...?

    I am not sure what they sell them with, I just buy the powerhead and use sugihara bar's. I have a 16" on mine.

    I rate the 400 over the 462 because of how light and well balanced it is, as well as how torqey the engine is. The 462 is a great saw but dosnt fit well between the 400 and the 500i in my experiance.
