Howdy Agimos! Just a quick one to rack your brains and harvest your opinions please? I am contemplating adding a small, cheapish saw to my collection, specifically for pruning task, light tree work on my property and to bridge the gap between my ratchet loppers and my smallest other saw, a Makita / Dolmar DCS4301 at 43cc. Initially I fancied an Echo 2511WES for its diminutive size and low weight. Two things put me off slightly, the £400 cost, and reports on this forum of issues with the smoothness of the chain in wood. Setting my sights a little lower, and slashing the budget required in half left me looking at three ‘big name’ entry level beginner saws all under £200, as listed below: Stihl MS162 @ £155.00 Husqvarna 120 II @ £170 Echo CS-310 ES @ £199 and the ‘off brand’ wildcard, in the image of my initial choice, a smaller saw aimed it appears at CS-2511 WES buyers; Mitox 270 CSX @ £199 also. Your thoughts and experience with these saws would be greatly appreciated ladies and gentlemen.

Hi all, I'm having issues with a Cs 370 es, it's a slow cutter, I would either like to speed up the chain on the current set up and keep the 058 bar and chain or swap to 1.3 050 low profile bar, chain and sprocket. Both of which need a change of sprocket... What I'm looking for is someone with old school knowledge to be able to x things over. The saw is semi pro, kept on aspen only, on factory standard set up. It struggled to do a plunge cut on a 12" ash log on a razor sharp chain. Looking for help as I can't x reference the parts, echo doesn't shows two types of sprocket but only lists one that's 325 x 058 think 7 tooth factory standard. I'm hoping so one might be able to put me right or say I've got one in a shed kind of thing. Thanks in advance

Over the past 2 years I have bought an Echo CS362tes top handle saw, CS2511tes and a CS621SX ground saw, to replace there Husky equivalents and been really impressed with there design and performance. Dick Leigh Chainsaws in Barrow has kindly lent us an Echo CS-7310SX to demo for when the time comes to replace a 70cc saw. We have held on to the saw for about 3 months, enough time to put several tanks of fuel through it, bed in the piston and ring, and wear out 1 chain. I think this is a good saw that could have a long lifespan. If you are going to visit Dick Leighs for a 70cc saw this is well worth considering and should definitely be on your short list. If the choice is between maximum performance or longevity the Echo is likely to win on build and reliability, and with a little tuning it could be a game changer for Echo.

So I got my hands on a echo 360tes for £50 ! Nothing wrong with it apart from a training company had no use for it due to changing fuels to Aspen. Right place right time Obviously it has seen use. I own a 201t as my main saw but want to use the echo for sub contracting and save my 201t for my own jobs and bigger trees. I would like to change the bar and chain to more well known products for ease of replacement but finding replacements to start with seems very hard, help!! I am also thinking of changing filters and running gear as I would like it to run well and hopefully last a year or two without problems. What would you guys change/ replace? Also where can I get parts from ?!!! Any internet sites I find are American or strange looking. Little recap: What aftermarket bar and chain ? 12" What parts would you service/ change/ replace ? Where do I get parts from? Thanks guys !! James
