Hello,
I've been using a Stihl 046 magnum for milling with a 36" bar and ripping chain. I've been getting into some bigger hardwood logs and want to upgrade. I was using the maxflow filter on the 046 because the stock filter was terrible and would let in tons of debris to the carb. My question is should I use the maxflow on the 881 or is the stock filter good for milling? Any other tips for milling with this saw? I've read a lot of different opinions on it online but don't want to risk a $2300 saw.
Thanks,
Dan
