Stihl 038 AV Magnum 2 manual

Hi,

I am new to this site and have lurked in the background reading for a few weeks. Lots of good stuff here.

I have an old Stihl 038 AV Magnum II. Bought it new when I was younger and have cut tons of firewood with it. The muffer finally blew out and a few of the AV mounts need replaced. I was wanting to get a shop manual before tearing too deep into the saw.

Any advice on where to find a manual. Also good places for parts.

Looking at making it my backup saw and buying a new Stihl 440. (Heard the 441 had a few problems) The 440 is still available on order. Might try to find a used one since I only cut for fun anymore. Lots of beetle kill in the Medicine Bow.

I like to have some power and always run a 24 inch bar so I don't bend over much.

Might cross over to the dark side and look at Husky. Heard good things, but always owned Stihls.
