You're seemingly asking 3 questions in one! I hope however the following will help.
1. An online illustrated parts list is available at http://www.repairclinic.com/Shop-For-Parts/a30b354d1044145/Model-MS290-Stihl-Chainsaw-Parts. (Look at the left.)
2. For the "difficult to pull" problem, see http://www.repairclinic.com/RepairHelp/Chainsaw-Repair/30-354-1044145-/Stihl-Chainsaw-MS290-Troubleshooting. The links most likely to solve are listed third and fourth.
3. I can't find a link to to the service manual. Service manuals are typically not offered to the public. If you're willing to pay, you may be able to get one from Stihl: use the contact information here--https://www.contacthelp.com/stihl/customer-service.
