If you’re a professional arborist, you already know the value of a good top-handle chainsaw. They’re light-weight, maneuverable, and perfect for in-tree cutting work. So we’re pretty sure you’ll want to know about ECHO’s new CS-2511T top-handle chainsaw. It’s the lightest gas-powered chainsaw in North America and the most powerful in its class. Keep reading to learn more about this new chainsaw.
Compact Maneuverability
The compact size of this saw makes it over 20 percent smaller than the leading competitor. To quote Joe Fahey, Vice President of ECHO Product Planning, “With a lighter product, end users have less operator fatigue which equals greater efficiency. A more compact saw gives users more maneuverability around tightly woven branches.”
Updated Oiler
ECHO didn’t just make this saw more compact than its predecessors. They also added some great new features. One of the more innovative is a top-mounted bar oiler. Instead of putting the bar oiler on the bottom of the chainsaw, they moved it to the top for easy-access by the operator. That also makes keeps the oiler adjustment screw from getting clogged by debris. Plus, this clutch-driven oiler only runs when the chain is moving and you can adjust the oiler to your working conditions.
Bar and Chain
This saw design includes a side-access chain tensioner for quick, easy chain adjustment. You can use either a 12- or 14-inch bar with the 91PXL chain. This chain features an extra long cutter for extended chain life.
Powerful Engine
The CS-2511T is powered by a 25 cc professional-grade, 2-stroke engine. This engine is designed to ensure you’re not sacrificing efficiency by choosing a compact chainsaw. And it works: the EPA 2017 Certification Data lists the new CS-2511T as the most powerful in its class.
Handy Features
A spring-assist starter makes it easy to start the engine, which is particularly handy when you’re working off the ground. This saw also features a captive bar nut so there’s no danger of the nut falling off when it’s loosened. A swing-out ring makes it easy to attack the saw to a lanyard.
Keeping Things Clean
To ensure long engine life, ECHO included features to keep debris out of the saw. The air filter is rear-mounted to keep it out of the way of debris. That filter also easy to clean because of the two-piece design. And this saw has a fine-grid starter cover to keep debris out of the engine. An optional palm debris guard is also available.
