Hello i have a hard to find 036 QS its the same power head and same class as the 036 pro. The QS has a break that is operated by the handle trigger and/or the hand kick back break. When ya let off the trigger the break engages. Its a really safe saw if your in a bucket or climbing and use a bigger saw then its really hard to beat IMO. Or on the ground works great. Saw has maybe 30 hrs on it if that. I ran 3 compression test on it and with my gauge you just hold it in the plug hole it don't screw in. cant find my screw in gauge but the lowest i got was 153 which i wrote it on the case. i got 158 and 159. The saw fires right up and runs like a top. runs just like it did the day it was new. Oils like a charm its a very good saw that flat cuts. Its got a new 18in bar and chain. It has the normal scratches from use but the saw is not beat up and has not been abused in any way. I use quality oil mix and bar. I mix 40:1 i all ways run a little more oil then what they say. You can use the stihl 3/8 pro chain on it. Please ask any questions and i will answer them. the pic suck it don't do the saw justice at all. I'm going to take a few more pic in the day light plus a short video of it running and cutting. I'm asking 375.00 shipped i would do some trading as well. rifle,handgun,scope,AR Ace skeleton stock with buffer tube,spring,buffer. (The long stock)Good AR trigger. AR mags 10,20 or 30rd. Thats just some of the things i could use now or down the road. Let me know what ya got to trade. I will trade straight up or your trade and cash for the rest. I would like to move it as quick as i can.

The EPA regulations have ruined the newer saws. They run too lean and are not adjustable or have very limited adjustments! Good luck with your sale. If I were in the market for a saw, this one would be gone.
I seem to recall the 036 being very similar to the 361 in the pro lineup, both great heavy-duty saws that run hard and run well. I have a 361 that is simply a beast, but super reliable and easy to start. Seems like a great product at a good price. Good luck with the sale deerhunterj.
