The CS-600 weighs in at 13lb’s claimed by Echo. I have always liked their trimmers but wonder why they choose not to advertise horse power. Are they afraid of lower numbers than the competition?
13lb’s for 59.8 cc CS-600 vs. 13.6lb’s for Dolmars 79cc PS-7900
All I can say is Echo’s CS-600 better be one heck of a saw when its only 9.6 ounces less than the 7900 Dolmar.
Back to the numbers BS, when someone can explain why a Stihl MS260 is 3.2 hp and a MS290 (every one I've run has been a dog, maybe they all had 3/8 chain) is 3.8 hp I might believe published numbers a little. Stihl or husky doesn't have a saw that compares to the 7900 either, just Solo. Steve
