I've been sawing for decades but age is taking it's toll on my ability to start saws. Argh! I lift weights in the gym but now am struggling to pull hard and fast enough on my Stihl 290 and 261. Really sucks.
The hacks I'm considering are manually priming the saw, putting in an Ergo or Elastostart rope, and bumping down to saw that has a primer bulb. I cut some 2 foot stuff so need a bigger saw for felling and bucking. Anyone already go through this? Ideas for us aging sawyers?
