Bailey's - STIHL 20" CHAIN LOOP 33RSC 72 DL
About 2x what I most recently paid for the same loop, but still. Never though I'd see the day.
Seems a little shady saying their OEM parts come from "various sources". I can only suspect the Russians in this.
They're clearly straying away from posting a Stihl logo, etc.
Have to wonder where a shipping container of stihl chain went missing...

Paging through the instruction manual for the 560xp from husky which is now even on the US website, there is an instruction about subjecting the autotune to some vigorous upfront use on setup. Spike, got your logs ready?
adjustment of the carburettor’s H and L needles and the Tscrew
no longer applies. Both needles and the T-screw
have been removed. AutoTune is a function that adjusts
the carburettor electronically, always resulting in optimal
adjustment.
Function
• The carburetor governs the engine’s speed via the
throttle control. Air and fuel are mixed in the
carburetor. The air/fuel mixture is adjustable.
• The automatic adjustment of the carburettor means
that the engine is adapted to local conditions, e.g. the
climate, altitude, petrol and the type of 2-stroke oil.
This function is controlled by AutoTune.
Engine adjustment
The following steps should be taken when the chain saw
is started for the first time or when outside circumstances
change (fuel, altitude, air filter etc.): Start the engine.
Accelerate the engine to full throttle and saw a number of
cuts in a thick log (3-5 min.).
The chain saw must be run (8,000 - 12,000 rpm) the entire
time so that the carburettor can adjust itself.
