Even my ms180 takes about 4 pulls from cold and 1 when hot.

 

I should imagine it has elastostart and a decomp though?

Classic saw, like the 036 and MS360 were/are... Unbreakable in my experience. If I was only allowed one saw this would be it.

I bought mine on a garden fair years ago when it first came out. I got a bargain deal on it as it was the demo one... I decided to buy it as I at the time couldnt afford a 260 and a 660. I bought it as a compromise some 6 or 7 years ago (?) I have used it with 2 bars for felling and ringing up trunks. Not as fast as a 660 of course but never failed to do the job. I no longer run a company of my own, but still does the odd job on the side. Best saw I ever had!

The best allrounder in my opinion!!!

It's a beast with a 20" sword....
