Spark arrestor 550xp

Hi all, removed the above mentioned yesterday and pleasantly surprised how it livened it a little more and sounds great. Picks up quicker too. Just thought I'd share this. I was hesitant at removing it at first tbh but to anyone considering it, just :Ddo it.

Standard practice for me . If it has one , take it out from day one

Keep the fixing screw out as well.

The woodland groups I sometimes work with, always state the saws must have their spark arresters in place. Even in the dead of winter, when the ground is soggy or snow covered. So although I'm inclined to remove it/them, I guess it/they will have to stay in place.

Left screw out. Have them kept anyway just in case even though I'm only a part timer. The sound is ear piercing though so muffs are advisable. I have tinnitus already from construction work and don't want it any worse . Must invest in comfortable plugs

What if the saw doesn't have a spark mesh?

Then it will have a different type of exhaust out let , probably a tube type with more internal baffeling ... and of course if it does not have one you cant take one out !

Yes, yes, I'm aware of that, but what if he has a saw with no spark mesh? Does that mean he couldn't use a 372-3120 or an ms880 on site? Or would he have to order USA mufflers? Or would they overlook them?
