- I am getting ready to purchase a Stihl chain saw. There are two offerings at the same power/bar level. One is a regular start, tool adjusted chain tension, the other is an "easy start" with a tool fr

- I have used both and for light, occasional use you will do just fine adjusting the chain the old fashioned way. I applaud your choice of saws. I've used a bunch of Stihl saws and have loved them all

- Stihl saws are the way to go. After all the different home depot and such saws.... I finally stepped up to the Stihl and wished I had never spent $ on lesser engineered units. Suffice it to say it wi

- The easy start system is no mere compression release. It's a method where the rope pull winds up a coil spring and the coil spring spins the engine. The claim is that is is far easier to do, requirin

- I have two Stihl saws, one with the quick adjust (018, my "camping saw") the other with regular adjust (260, my "firewood saw"). Really, either adjusting system works well and I wouldn't consider tha
