Hi Fellas,
I'm after a new helmet and keen to learn what yous fellas wear and why please.
Welcome to the Dribble ,lots of good blokes here and infoG'day all first post here anyway I've only ever run 038's but want to add an 066 to my tool box preferably a Magnum. But since I'm not too familiar with the 066 series I was hoping someone could give me a rundown on the different versions.
Cheers in advance.

Long story short a MS 660 mag Aus delivered after 09' is the shot. Duel port muffler making it the magnum 5.2 vs 5.7 kW and this is when they picked up the HO oiler which can he identified by a small slot half way through the oil pump adjuster bolt at right angles to the main slot and also have the larger oil tank which changed while still the 066 but after it went to the 'round top' then renamed the MS660G'day all first post here anyway I've only ever run 038's but want to add an 066 to my tool box preferably a Magnum.

Stihl pro helmet because well I don't think I need to say why. The difference between the Std and pro helmet it the adjuster at the back; std has little locking buttons needs to be removed to be re tensioned vs the ratchet knob on the pro, 30 vs 32 dB ear muffs and terry towelling vs lambs wool brow guard/sweat band thing and all the bits can be bought as parts, visors, visor holder, earmuffs and earmuff pads and foamsHi Fellas,

either that or an eternity standing at the local stihl dealer's counter,listening to him say, "nah mate,saws not ready yet,had to order in all the parts,come back next month"stihl nogging buckets for me yes rachy adjust is good helps keep lid on my pin head. I dont use helmet fit clip on muffs as prefer the necklace butt plugs and glasses not mesh shield.. If climbing i have no expense spared Aldi bargain bin helmet,,, i kid you not it fits fine tho i not yet tested its impact force field i expect not to survive a fall hopin for peace full passing with all the hot chicks who knocked me back awaiting for me up there
I have pretty much shelved my 441 now I have the 661. I used to use my 026 16" 441 25" and 066 36". I usually just use either the 241 or 026 16" and 661 25" and 36". Great on fuel, good AV and heaps of grunt.If I have to work all day with the saw, I will go to a smaller saw every chance I get, dont use the 461 much for quote jobs but do need it for work I do of my own.
The 661 is one of the best saws I've used for large stuff.
Unfortunately quality varies. On another not found Stihl crank case pairs have come down in price heaps and come with bearings already fitted. Has any one here every had saw parts powder coated and at what sort of cost?either that or an eternity standing at the local stihl dealer's counter,listening to him say, "nah mate,saws not ready yet,had to order in all the parts,come back next month"
