Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly You should have 120 PSI or greater compression. There is a ported compression release so you may see as little as 110 PSI but it is best to see 120 or greater.

The Owners manual is here:
http://www.northerntool.com/downloads/manuals/195946.pdf

carb basic settings are on page 29 of the manual.

The saw has a Zama C3-EL18 carb.
The manual for the carb is here:
http://www.zamacarb.com/pdfs/TechGuide_2007.pdf (Click and wait 2.50 mb)
Your carb is the C3

The workshop manual for the saw is here:

Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly

Hi have a Husqvarna 410 2000 got spark fuel back fires but wont start checked flywheel is on right valves rock at top dead centre ... ?? but wont start ? kick start only tho ?

If the valves "rock" at TDC, the piston is at TDC EXHAUST, not TDC COMPRESSION. Chances are the engine is flooded. Install a fresh spark plug and go easy on twisting the throttle when starting the bike. Be sure the battery is in good condition. Push the kick lever to just past TDC compression then give a strong kick. Don't try to kick start with the piston going upward on the compression stroke. Be sure the air cleaner is not dirty and you have good gas. Please rate my answer. Thanks!

Husqvarna chain saw not starting. Seems to have lost compression. What should the compression be?

If its lost compression i would remove the two/three screws holding the muffler, take a look through the exhaust port at the piston, if there is any sign of scuffing or damage it is going to be cylinder off.
