Box store saw. Barf.
I just bought my second Dolmar. This time I bought a trim size saw. I got the medium grade and it was $250 through the dealer. My big 111 is probably 10 years old and has hundreds of hours on it. It has never been in the shop. I realized yesterday it still has the same spark plug the Germans put in it when they put it together. I have several other saws but the Dolmar has the least vibration for my hands. I think Stihls are hard to start, but that would be a better choice, too. The 180 is a consumer grade but they hold up really well. They are about as pricey as the Dolmar. I looked at Echo, too. They have a five year warranty. About the same money.
Take that thing back and go buy a saw that will run for you. We are all getting too old to mess with a machine that wears us out before we ever get to use it.

Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
