Decomp button when starting

[wood spliter]

I have a small Husky and they don't have one. When I use big saw that do have one I always do.

The only saw I own with the decompression valve is my MS440 Magnum. Interestingly enough, I rarely use the deco valve on this monster when starting it--it's always been a very smooth starter.....the saw has excellent compression and is a strong runner, it just starts easy which I'm grateful for!!

My 272 has it and I use it every time. The 266 needs it and I wished it had it, so I could use it. So you know how I voted.

I can't pull my husky 394 without it. really hurts if you forget and try to start it without. on my other smaller saws there is no need for decmp.

026pro -yes
it's just habit


only time I might not is warmer weather it doesn't like to idle too long, then I might just pull start it quick and rev it up

How many here use their decompression buttons when starting your saws?

Personally, I do not. I reckon if I can't get 'er to pop, I'm probably too fatigued to be running the saw safely anyhow.

I always use it, makes starting easier.
