I picked up the 026 today and got to finally see it in person. Looks great, starts great and runs great. Came with the case and brand new chain. Really happy with the saw, and happy to know that the 441 fits in the case.





The 026 isn't a pro, but it has the hi and low carb adjustments, I couldn't see if it had the oil adjustment though.
I thought white handled stihls were the pro grade ones then orange and black?

From what I understand both the 026 and the 026 Pro are professional grade saws, the "Pro" designated model came with two specific features that were never available on the non "Pro" models. First was a decompression valve, and second was an adjustable oiler. For me, the decompression valve is useless on a saw this small, I don't use the one I have on my 441 most times. I can see the benefit of the adjustable oiler, just having it not oil at idle would be nice, but it's a minor issue as far as I'm concerned.
