    Efco 152 long term test

    I would say go with the saw that has the best dealer/parts support. I own the efco and 2 makita all good saws. No wrong choice here...

    New SpeedPro Kinetic Log Splitter from TSC...

    The Future of SpeedPro I have to ask...are they done for good or will they release an improved model in the near future? :angry: The DR is getting my attention but the ability to tow the SpeedPro is making me wait.

    Efco 152 Chain Conversion?

    Hi all I want to convert an Efco 152 from 3/8 drive to .325 to match my CubCadet CS5018 and cut down on bar and chain variations. What exactly do I need and where can I order it from? Thanks Rob

    Efco 152 long term test

    Yep no factory manuals. Between the cub,deere and efco owners I thought someone would have it. I worked on the efco yesterday. Running 100% better oiling decent and just a slight bog just needs a bit more tweaking. On the downside the guy I bought it from didn't submit the warranty...

    Efco 152 long term test

    Oh yeah they don't do much and the one on the Cub is damaged yeah most likely by me:) Looks like the Cub will function??? The efco I don't want to run it the way it's tuned, seems lean on the top end. Bogs out load or no load. On another note I contacted efco RE a service manual they won't...

    Efco 152 long term test

    Contacted efco waiting on a response. The Cub was a bit gunked up cleaned it and it oils somewhat. Counter clock wise increases flow right? It has a plastic oiler the one on the efco is metal. Adjustment screw partially stripped??? Flushed it with diesel which seemed to help. Id like to buy...

    Efco 152 long term test

    If I didn't buy it from Ebay I would have a place to bring it. He is an Efco dealer but on the wrong coast! Okay I can see that part in the IPL of course if I knew more about saws or had a service manual it would make things easier I like doing the work myself. Thanks again slipknot!

    The Beg for Manuals Thread

    Efco 152, Cub Cadet CS5018 Looking for a Service and IPL manual for EFCO 152 or CubCadet CS5018, JD sold the same saw as well. I did search nothing listed for these saws. Thanks Rob

    Efco 152 long term test

    Great I thought the 1/2 was for the bar oil thanks for confirming that on the Cub I am running one of Baileys bars but don't think it is the cause of the problem?. I did pull the side cover and get a small amount of oil flow with no chain. That is on the Cub. The Cub is the same saw as the Efco...

    Efco 152 long term test

    Great to find this thread. Noticed several comments RE oiling issues and both my Cub and Efco do not supply enough oil. Yes I am a total newbie but what hole are you opening up on the bar? There are 2 that go threw and one 1/2 way. The Cub ran and oiled fine the first couple years but now fails...

    Makita 401 Clutch nut Problem.

    Love the saw but the clutch nut was loose when I bought it brand new of Ebay. How do I get this tight enough so it doesn't back off every time the blade gets pinched. Yeah I know I should avoid that but all it takes is a little extra load on the blade to cause this problem.I don't want to damage...

    Cubcadet CS5018 Carb Adj Problem

    Wow!! Running great now, fresh fuel some minor tweaks to the L and H now this was how it should have run from the beginning. On another note my Makita DCS401 should be here very soon!!

    Cubcadet CS5018 Carb Adj Problem

    Thanks for the link, it was a NOS saw,I only ran 2 tanks tops on this saw and the high was never correct, it would just fall flat, you could feel it come off the low speed circuit which in itself was borderline at best. Hopefully I can get this dialed in. The adjustment range is fairly limited...

    Auction ending need advice! Echo CS400.

    Thanks for the input, the Echo is 250 shipped and so is the Makita. Guess I will go for the Makita.
