I build stuff from milled slabs
But has anyone used an 880 with the HD2 filter?
Borrowed these pics from another thread.
So they look cool but do they actually work better. I wonder what the dealer wants for them?

They are made of the same material as the MS261 filter and they appear to work well...
Haven't run an 880, but supposedly the filter is the same as the 066. Weak point is indeed the seal, but only because the filter nut bottoms out on the stud before the seal is tight.Do they seal better than the regular filters. I always thought the weak point is where they touch the carb mount.

If you are using a hard plastic inner baffle, it can also bottom out on the baffle before the seal is tight.
Use the foam baffle rather than hard plastic. If you are still getting fines past the filter, then the nut is probably bottoming out on the stud. May have to take a raker file to the stud shoulder so you can give the nut another turn. Doesn't take much.
I don't know what all the fuss is about. I've never had any problem with Stihl HD or max flows pulling in fines. I run max flow 90% of the time, but I don't prefer one over the other.
Hey betterBuilt give me a shout if your arms get tired from cutting firewood with that beast. I would be glad to drive out and give you a hand with it. I have never seen and 880 in person.....

The 3120 the tree service here runs can't keep from having crap get past the filter. I'd rather have a Stihl HD/HD2 filter myself. I just picked up my first HD2 filter Friday. I'll be trying it out this next week. My main beef with the 3120 is the unadjustable carb. There's not room for a H needle with the filter base either.
Yeah i bet your right. what length bar are you gonna get on it?
I have a 20,25,36,42,56 and probably a few I didn't list, so I didn't get a bar.

lol yeah it looks like you have that aspect covered. I called on a 088 in syracuse a few weeks ago but the person never picks up and doesnt have a voice mail.
I might have one for sale if it's a big piece of poo. I don't have room for anymore saws that can't put in a day's work.
