STIHL MS362 double felling dogs /spikes

[JMcf]

Like the dual dawgs on the 441, least keeps the muffler and saw from beating on the wood when sawing.

I've just bought a MS311(is not as good a saw as my old magnum but a really good end of financial year sale and a 40% instant tax write off for me) as a lighter firewood saw to back up my 038Magnum, I've had to put out two small fires in the first three hours of use due to the muffler sitting in bark as the standard dogs are shite and too small.

Looking for a bigger dog asap, the chain cover is cheap plastic without holes so can't fit an extra dog but one good inner one should be sufficient.

edit: do most stihl dogs fit all stihl saws?

No, most dogs do not fit most saws. They tend to be model specific with some crossover.

Fitted the small double dogs and roller on my 261, same size as original small stamped dog but the two makes for a more secure cut when dogged in, handy when chogging down stems, felling or just bucking

Think it was a 362 kit, easy, lift plastic trims, drill through recess in clutch cover, fit longer bolts. tried them on the 044 but one stuck out more

The outside dog for the 044 is not the same as a 362 or 046. The inside dogs will work.

No worries, I just got a standard roller set for a 46
