Echo ground saw opinions.

[Matt GT]

My opinion is that they are the best option right now for ground saws and climbing saws. 

My only gripe is no heated handles. 

Someone said spares are problem above but that is just not true! Phone Echo tool uk and you will have your spare next day!

Can anyone tell me exactly what tuning tool I need for a 620SX?  The plastic bag that comes with the saw contains a small slot screwdriver that may just fit the T screw but the H & L screws are so small and so far down the tunnels that I can't see what their tops are ?

 

Cheers,

Not yet but hoping to have my 620 done early 2018. The saw as standard is a cracking machine, as has been said, it's not as fast as the likes of the 560xp but bog it in at full bar length and watch it pull!

Did you get that saw ported yet?

This kit worked for.my 2511

Or a kit that looked similar

Thanks but the tuning screw heads for the 2511 and the 620 are different!  The 2511 has a single D head but we think the 620's are tiny hex heads!

Yes I can buy the whole set of tuning thingies and only use two of them but was hoping to be a bit more specific.  If not then your suggestion will fit the bill so to speak ?

 

Cheers.

The kit was cheaper than the tuning screw driver from echo which was about 20quid or something ridiculous. My local echo man also said he wasn't supposed to sell it. Really I don't know what echo are thinking!

[nepia]

Fair point; I know the real thing from Echo is silly money.

 

Thanks again.

2mm flat blade screwdriver according to the Echo Carb Adjustment Manual, although it is fitted with limiter caps by the look of it.

Hmmm... possibly; the H & L screws are so darned small you need a 10-year old's eyes to see.  But at just 2mm it may be the right answer.  A flat blade is certainly OK for the T screw but probably 4mm is best for that.

 

Thanks.
