So I was one of the lucky few who purchased A new 2015 6421 Makita at Amazon for 439.00 with free shipping. I'm stoked about that but I have a few questions I can't find an answer for.
1. Do the newer 6421 have some sort of exhaust recirculation devise in the muffler?
2. Do these saws run better without the catalytic converter inside the muffler?
3. Does the catalytic converter create too much heat?
4. The bar appears to be somewhat cheap so what would be a good replacement?
5. Should I break in the saw before adjusting the carb? I live at 3200 feet and do most of my cutting above 5000 feet. Is this saw set to operate at sea level?
Thanks for any help it would be much appreciated!
