The future is echo, cho, oh, o.

It's all good fun until you get struck by lightning or hit an overhead power cable.

 

Give me tennis elbow over being burnt to a crisp any day!

I happy with echo after getting peeved with various Stihl products. I do need to fix a couple of bits on my Echo multitool - dead-mans trigger snapper and locking pin at attachment has snapped but i'm putting this down to typical employee abuse.

Only issue I have is that i have not found an online supplier of parts so have to go out of my way to a dealer.

I've got an Echo CS3000 top handle saw. Love it. After a couple of cheap Chinese copies of Zenoah type TH saws, it's a bit heavy - not so good to use one-handed. But it's rubust and powerful enough so I use it for a lot of groundwork and trimming up rather than firing up something bigger. It's a bit sensitive to carb adjustment, I find - if it's set so it's easy to start, it runs a bit rich when warm, and vive versa. It could maybe do with a proper ultrasound carbclean )I bought it secondhand so don't know its history). Otherwise, great little saw. This is all DIY use, incidentally - I'm not a pro.

Common sense can go along way. Using any equipment under adverse or dangerous conditions is just plain stupid:thumbdown:.

 

I believe your young enough to think you would rather have tennis elbow as apposed to being burnt to a crisp, however you may also believe you are invincible and your body will never wear out. In either case you actually know nothing of my product and how it truly has helped and protected many users and members of this site, much less thousands around the world:thumbup1:

Chap I worked with had a new echo top handle, the rear eye pulled out and they sent him a new saw direct from japan, no questions asked.

 

Quite fancy one of those 620 myself.

I've not long taken delivery of the 360 echo, a really cracking wee saw so far so good for the echo brand.

I bought the 360tes back in November last year after 2 months the exhaust broke, iv been waiting since for a replacement, apparently they haven't got them in America or Japan.

A decent dealer would take an exhaust off a new machine on the shelf and have you sorted immediately... poor show fobbing you off
