I picked up a customers saw this afternoon for repair...
Echo CS-520, 20" bar
He said it would start, but wouldnt move the chain.
Got it back here, and pulled the bar cover off...The Chain brake band was cooked so bad it was broken in 2, the Bar had clearly gotten VERY hot, as the rails were discolored the whole length, the sprocket was worn to nothing, and was seized tight. The ends were worn into the bar alot.
The chain Drive links were shot, all rough and beaten on.
The Drive spool on the clutch looked decent, beleive it or not...
Ive never priced these parts for these saws..about what do they cost retail?
20" Bar
20" Oregon Chain
Brake Band
2 Bar nuts
Clutch spool
The saw cranks on the 1st pull, and runs like a champ. Purrs at idle, and screams up top.
I like the saw myself, it is quite slight, and nearly 0 Vibration, and so quiet!
