I like it that on Stihl's saws that almost every screw (bolt) takes
the same size tool.......So I used a couple of them on my
Maxx grinder. The new wheel guard screws don't fit down
into the recess. One for the wheel, 066 bottom muffler
screws (6mm) or cylinder screw works, I used a cylinder screw.

Now I don't need to find the metric allen wrench or mess
around with a flat blade screw driver to remove the guard
and wheel.

One more thing it seems to grind faster and smoother
with Stihl screws installed :D
