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.
