Tiny echo!

I’ve just bought another 2511. The bar is different to the bar that came with my first 2511.
This bar & chain will be going in the bin at lunch time too. Lol!

Obviously worth checking yours has the correct carb for these initial settings, you never know! And I'd echo the comments about them often being set up lean, all 3 of my Echo 2 strokes benefitted from fattening up.

 

Echo Carb Adjustment Table ~ EU spec. < There's a link in post #1that'll let you open or download the Echo specs and procedure for adjustment, then tweak to your preference. HTH

Are they the same for the 2511?

 

Mine is running on a bit.

I need to calm it down a bit without affecting the starting issue, which it still doesn't like to be honest.

Ignore me, they are slightly different.

It’s the Echo bar and chain that comes as standard.
I think the chain is sharpened with a rusty spanner and the bar is made of compressed eucalyptus leaves.

How are people getting on with these now they've had them a while? I'm looking at getting a nipper but really want it to be an echo. How do they compare to the 150 after these days?

Love mine, better than a standard 150, getting mine tweaked by spud soon, should be an absolute belter

I thought all 2511 came with a 10" Tsumura bar! Mine did and that is every bit as good if not better than sugi bars.

It has more grunt than a 150, needs the Stihl chain to be at its full potential tho! Sugi chain doesn’t cut as fast.
150 bogs down on bigger stuff.

how is it ergonomically compared to the 150 and any diff in weight.
