Default Stihl MS270 / Upgraded chain catcher?



I bought the upgraded chain catcher for my MS361 and love it! The extra dog on the sprocket cover is helpful to dig in for a better bite. Does anybody know if a similar arrangement is available for the MS270 and what the part number is? I can't find a shop manual for this saw on Wavapps site....

You may need to fab one up your self. I have seen a chain catcher added to a 290 inside dawg off a 440-460 PNW package.

Thanks Redneck, I'll have to see which ones fit the pre-drilled holes on the sprocket cover and go from there....
