Stihl FS series clearing saw head compatability

[MW0CBC]

Whist i continue to try and sort out my FS400 (see earlier post!) I am contemplating buying something else, perhaps with a bit more power. Everything I've read suggests that the FS 490C-EM would be more than capable of doing what I need.

 

My question is then will the existing heads and blades etc. I use on the 400 fit the 490? What I've read on line suggests that there should be no issues but it would be very useful to know for sure if anyone can confirm (or indeed, deny!)

 

Cheers,
