1100 & 298 auto oiler only therefore 36" bar max
2100 & 2101 auto and manual oiler  60" bar max

other, but minor differences

My 298XP 20" bar... is super hard to start/pull over, in spite of upgrade to later starter... but I have found it is NOT a healthy P&C I believe it is semi seized rings and has very high drag on the cylinder wall

My 2100CD 24" bar ...by comparison is quite easy to start and yet has good comp....
