Hey guys, I have an older 028 wood boss AV. This has been my main saw for years. It has been great to me. One constant battle I have always had is the air filter clogging up rapidly. I do have the fleece filters. The old cork or whatever it was filter was tossed many years ago. This saw has pretty much been retired, But I was wondering if any of you old pro's out there had any secrets or tip's on if any thing can be done about this problem. The best solution I have come up with is to have a few filters on hand. Then split them and blow them out at the end of the weekend so they are ready to go for the next round. This saw just really pulls the chips in by the filter. I do not have any filter problems with my 260 pro or my 290. Any suggestions or tips are most welcome. Thanks, Shawn
