Okay, anybody know the difference? I'm guessing epa 2011 compliance means cat muffler, not strato in this case.
Howdy All,
Well it looks like we've run Makita out of 6401's. The replacement is a DCS 6421. I looked it over and the only difference is that it has a Catalytic muffler. The only real bad news is pricing. We managed to get a couple of pallets of the 6421's at close to the 6401's cost but, once they're gone, it looks like we're going to add at least another Benjamin to the price.
We're hoping that what we secured will get us through the current sale but, time will tell.
Regards
Gregg
epa always has to screw things up. If it works leave it alone...why change it!!! cough ....cough ... like this site!
I hear saws run better without mufflers anyways.
i just modded my 6421, grind the seam, it is impossible to bend back the flap, the cat is a easily removed plate, no grinding, then grind out the baffle and open up the exit hole to 80%, tig the two back together (no filler material needed). easy mod.
Howdy,
The old one bolts rigtht on.

Gregg
