Tiny echo!

[Patlmc]

Tsumura bars on my CS310 and the Tiny CS2510. Both with Oregon chain and both cut superbly. Have thought about the Stihl bar for the Tiny but to be honest I am finding the standard set up to be perfect for me, the Oregon sharpens beautifully and is as cheap as chips, £12ish, to buy.

 

According to the Echo bumpf on the CS390ESX it is fitted with the Sugihara bar and I will get one next month when my wife is at the hairdressers!

Don't know Joe. The dealer told me that they are Sugihara bars with echo name on.

I don't give a sh!t so long as it cuts well.

I've never heard of Tsumara bars. What's the difference?

Nothing they're just made by sugi but don't run 0.43 chain

[wicklamulla]

Fitted the optional 'spiked bumper' (felling dog) to my 2510, the part number is in the supplied owners handbook.

It is confusing!

 

Sugihara is one company that makes guidebars in Japan (although their actual factory name is Diatop) and Sugihara is the brand name for their bars.

 

Tsumura is another totally seperate company in Japan that also makes guide bars (their company is called Suehiro Seiko).

 

Both companies have a reputation for making an excellent product.

 

I think that some of the Echo 2510s now do come with 1/4" drive sprocket as standard running a Tsumura small tipped carving bar. Tsumura do not make a sprocket nose bar to run 1/4 .043 chain (nor do they have to tooling to do so at the moment).

 

If newer versions are running a 1/4 .043 sprocket nose bar these will be Sugihara bars - who do make a 1/4 .043 sprocket nose bar but it will not run the Stihl 1/4 .043 chain (it will run Sugihara's own version of the 1/4 .043 chain).

 

Tsumura seem to make the laminated bars on the smaller Echo saws while Sugihara make the larger pro solid bars on the larger Echos.
