That is incorrect information. Echo and shindy are 2 companies owned and merged by yamabiko. Oops , I didn't see your other post.
My bad, I thought most of them had the primer bulb. My Echo backpack blower does, but so does my Stihl BR600.
I don’t know why one starts easier than another, but I appreciate saws that start easy. I mostly use Stihls and think the 462 may be the easiest starting saw I’ve ever used. Other notable mentions are 044 and 460. The worst I ever used is a 441.
