Rob aka spike60 on updated air filter set ups.

    service bulletin on the 555/562 air filter update has been released. Pretty simple solution. New air filter holder and they are using the air filters from the 550M2. When all of these backordered saws start shipping, they should all have the new stuff. Changes began with serial number 20202600073 for the 562, and 20202700001 for the 555. (20203200001 on the 560 for you guys in other markets.)

    Good news is these parts will retro to the older saws. There will be kits available sometime in Nov. The new filter fits under the 562 cover, but all the low top saws will need a new top cover as they are all going to use the new set up.

    The important part is the filter holder, since the filters are already available. And I don't know what filter will be included with the kits, so probably better to buy the holder and then get whatever filter you prefer. Retail on the holder is only $20.
