I replaced mine on the 600 at about 7000 miles (when I bought it the chain had been neglected and was shagged).
I got a DID Heavy duty gold kit including sprocket. Thing is its clearly defective. I have now done 38 thousand miles and have adjusted it twice. Thats never normal. I use a scotoiler filled with chainsaw lube (1/4 price of scottoil but its not a pretty blue colour). I am a tight git but reckon chains are one area where being cheap is false economy
