Stihl MS 200T burn marks

[morten]

Am I the only one who regularly gets burn marks from the Stil MS 200T exhaust on my forearms, when I move the saw, lifting it in the saw-strop, from my left to my right side? I also have partially melted spots on my favourite climbing jacket from the exhaust.

 

Ideally, I would like Stihl to provide a flange (or similar) in the plastics surrounding the exhaust of the MS 200T so direct skin/clothing contact becomes less of an issue.

 

Alternatively, Stihl should consider embossing a mirror-image STIHL logo in the exhaust, so the burn marks would be "cool" ;-)

I'm always careful of my ballistics. I wear chainsaw trousers to protect them

The burn marks ARE cool, your not a proper tree surgeon if you don't have a few to show off.

Maybe they did - but it melted.
