Stihl c model saw bar comparability

[moose207]

I just got a ms270c in a trade, i now know you have to mount the gear on the bar for the tooless tensioner. Does this mean i need special bars or will ms270 bars have provisions to mount the gear?
Just courius can i convert this saw to the normal side cover and tensioner?

No it uses a standard bar, the tensioner is held on bar with a single screw. Yes you can convert it just buy the normal tensioner.
