LOL, thank you for proving my point. I can do all that in one motion becasue the choke and switch are one on the Stihl. Neither hand has to move once you pick the Stihl up, only the thumb for choke off the right hand and the thumb off the left hand for the compression release, one swift motion. Boy Woodie is really gonna be on you,
Yup...right thumb choke/ignition, left thumb decomp, right hand pull.
Right hand pull.
Right hand pull.
Right hand pull.

And the saw roars to life.

Aaaaaaaaand on that note, I'm hittin' the hay.
Tom I'm pleased to see you still able to stand. 'Course, all three judges scored it for Manual tonight, but ya kept on your feet, and that's a lot for a Stihl girl.
This half of the Jred Boys is going to sleep...I'll be back to beat-up on you tomorrow maybe.
Remember to dump Manual's spit bucket on your way out tonight...and lock-up tight.
Oh, and do me a favor...don't just stand there and bleed while I'm talkin' to yas...get a towel or something...
Night all.

Okie Dokie,,,,,
Woodie now ya done went and dumped in my Cheerios now ya big dummy!!!!! I can pick up most of my Stihl saws w/my right hand by the rear handle, be choking and tuning on the ignition without ever removing my right hand and I'm walking off with it starting it w/my left hand and when the carb is tuned right they pop on the first or second pull choke off (stihl havent removed right hand) and usually running by 3rd or fourth pull,,,, in fact one of my 066s is tuned so sweet that its firing on choke and actually many times stays running as soon as I switch to fast idle and I dont have to pull it again!!!! So whats the big deal????? :looser:

Tom almost had me.
The problem he had was not moving his hand fast enough on hs saw.
he just wanted to keep both hands on the handles.
He'll get faster moves now that he has a Husky

They don't have to deal with real world saws..... today I wrestled 2 x 200T, an 056, an 041, 2 x 044 and and 036-pro into submission... and the phone, and usual mass of dumb and dumber customers...
about 10 lbs of filth came off them (the saws), most of it on me.
Oh yes... and one dragged in an 088 with a 6 foot bar that "came off" while they were cutting...
Filth, oil, grease, gray hairs.. my life.. all while you were sucking up to the big boys...
Well Lake, I can tell you that I married my wife in VA Beach in 1973. It was a beautiful place then as was my wife. We moved back to VA Beach in 1977 and the Stihl factory was just off the ground...my wife was still the prettiest girl on the beach. Thall has some great pictures. I'm just kicking my but that I did'nt visit that new Stihl factory before all the trees grew up around it. I guess we'll have to go back for a visit. Late fall, winter or early spring is THE time to go....if you want to look at chainsaws that is.:biggrinbounce2: :biggrinbounce2:

I ain't postin' pics of my 575..If I take a picture of it and download it,then I'll have to see it every time I open up photobucket....It will just remind me of the 725 bucks I wasted on that POS...I gave it to a guy who works for me...Not to keep,but he needed a chainsaw so I let him use it,and I told him that I was in no hurry to have it back...I just got done modding my other 346....She flat HAULS!!!

Tell me Timber what all is wrong with the 575. Spike spoke of them being cold natured but other than that I really haven't heard much about them. So what the deal on your 575, how come you don't care much for it??
