I’ve been hearing that stihl has a new scanner to replace the mdg1. Wondering if this is true and if it is will the old scanner be obsolete on the 462/500 i?

Mdg1 works for the 500i cutoff saw, so i dont think stihl needs a newer one. And the mdg1 is updateable also.. the model dropdown menu allready has the ms500i and 462 models on it

They do it’s mentioned in the catalog

That’s great to hear! Sorry, living in Canada we have very little info on them so far. The fact that they released a limited amount of the 462’s here a short period ago but no full wrap or heat versions just had me thinking.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the quick response. To be honest I’ve never thought about looking at a catalog, I just usually check the stihl Canada website under chainsaws. I guess I should look a little harder lol

Thanks again!

I don’t suppose you have a link to download that from? Haven’t seen the new catalog at the dealer yet. Thanks !!


It’s a stolen pics from some member here. I can’t recall now who it was.

However with red letters it mentions the wrap handle which was the original question.

Merry Christmas ho ho ho

Thats where those vids came from. Europe.
Roger that.... Far more interested in how they handle in the woods than cutting cookies.

I saw the one vid with the cutting of spruce with 20” bars... maybe some feedback on bigger bars, more hours/bigger jobs...

I agree. The cookies are a good gauge when comparison cutting. But I don't think it will perform any differently than the vids.

I got some infos for about the MDG1.
Stihl has 2 different MDG1s they recalled the MDG1s from the german dealers and build a newer bluetooth module in it because the old one didn't have enough bandwith to transfer all the data from the Injection and Mtronic 3 saws.
The only Difference is a cap on one screw on the outside.
Old MDG1 = 2 black screw caps
New MDG1 = 1 black 1grey screw cap

20 & 25inch maybe 28inch (has to be a reason) is the common bar length here for tree felling.

Bigger bars for decades accompanied 088/880 in 404 with 90cm and above either milling or for certain trees like palms and some else I cannot translate at the moment.

It uncommon to walk around with 2miles long bar and claim you wanna cut a tree or firewood.

PS. However myself recently got a 90cm 3/8bar for felling and to tell truth ofcourse felt different but i m thinking that in certain trees i ve got the phenomenon of “fresh teeth follow through” instead of speeding dulled teeth. Maybe I think wrong but i ll try some tests.
