Does the saw have a compression button for easy starts?

If you follow the instructions for hot and cold starts it never fails within 2 pulls. This is an awesome saw I have used it to cut 4.5 cords of wood with no start up issues. Its the best... dont know this answer thou.

I have. It had any trouble starting this saw. Starts right away on cold starts. Highly recommend this saw

No. Chainsaw has a button to push then you hold down the trigger. Weed trimmer just has trigger. Trust me you don't want these. Very cheap and will break the first day...

No, but it has the tool attached to the saw and it is very easy to tighten,

Not that I am aware of, no. You have to physically start it. That would be a great idea though! But, unlike Tim who thinks they're junk, I really liked mine! It did exactly what I wanted it to! It wasn't perfect by any means, but for the price and what I needed it to do, worth it.

sorry I can't help you with this. I don't use the saw much and this problem has not happened to me.

The handle for the pole has a on/off trigger. It also has a safety switch by the thumb, that needs to be depressed to turn on the saw, but can be released once the saw has started.

Yes. That's pretty much all i make. Just make a gentle sawing motion. Quick and easy.

No air compressor needed. This is an electric stapler which is what I was looking for.

Yes it does. Highly recommend this handy little saw! It's sharp, lightweight, and easy to fold up and store.

NOPE! It's a push button, probably like your previous chain saw. However, it does work very well.

Mine did not. But the price is right and this is a totally great saw! The first one I had (basically the same thing) lasted for more than twenty years. I don't think Makita has ever made a bad tool.....I have a bunch of them and have never had a real complaint. Don't worry about add-ons- just buy yourself a good saw.....and this is it.

No. There is a noticeable torque twist when you engage the trigger. The saw is well designed and self corrects almost immediately

No. No need to either. This thing runs like a champ! Just follow the starting instructions and you won't have any problems with this saw!

It has a trigger button. I suppose you can squeeze it not as hard to make it come out slower....

Hi, yes there is a safety switch, you have to push in a button and hold it in for the trigger to function the saw, but it's pretty ergonomic and easy to use...This is a great saw and works very well just like a regular chain saw...I have cut limbs of 6 inches in diameter with no problem at all, just watch where you stand so the limb doesn't fall on you when it comes down...lol

Yes, the saw in the CDK49L2 has a saw with alternate blade settings. However, as neat a feature as that is, I find it isn't something I use very often. The saw without it has served me very well in many situations.

no this saw has worked very good and it is powerfull. easy to operate, I would give it a 9.5 out of 10 points only because there is no brake on the blade and it takes a few seconds to stop. best buy for the money.
