Have you ever had a saw apart? and don't sit there and tell anyone you don't run Echo saws down, I don't think you even know how to run a saw. Steve

You again.
You criticize Echo ALL the time, too dumb to know what you do. Steve
Lol
LOL . That's exactly what most think of you. Keep up your bs. Steve
Careful, you’ll force him to pull out the Brrrrrrr vs Brrraaap Brrraaap argument again.

Will aftermarket bars fit on a CS620 so that my standard 72 drive link chains will fit? The Echo bars call for 70 DL if I remember. Is this a small mount or large mount bar and will a husky large mount bar fit on a 620? I've got 30 new Stihl chains that are 72 DL that fit on Husky and Stihl and Dolmar and new large mount Tech Lite Husky bars ready to go.
Maybe some of you city slickers should come into the real bush and see how it goes for you.
Brrrr brrr braap braap.
Most real 2 strokies know exactly what that means.
Team Echo strikes again.
Cutting cookies, making firewood.
Not that I have anything against firewood..
Steve, you can’t possibly be as insecure as you show on here.
You guys try to chase anyone away who dares to challenge your propoganda.
Insecure. Lol.

Not at all insecure, just know 10 times more than you and honest about the way saws run and are built which you have no clue . (propaganda) you are taken in by Stihl bs big time .Steve
I don’t even own an Echo, yet, but I do see ‘you’ on every thread spouting your ‘wisdom’ about them. You are not a huge fan, we get that, but why should your input be any more valuable than anyone else’s? You live in the bush? Good for you. Doesn’t make you the end all expert on anything. Anything at all.
Yes, slide a 14mm maybe its 12mm round over the bar studs stihl bar will fit right on everything lines up pretty well.

Well said.
There are guys like that on every Forum no matter if it's cars, trucks, saws or embroidery. I fell into that trickery and got the hell away from that guy earlier in this thread.
I put up some good, accurate information early on and had to listen to the BS, with very clever words thrown in my direction as to not violate the rules of posting for "personal attacks", etc.
Still matters not, and I assure you that I cut more wood by accident that he had on purpose, but pounding my chest and raving about a certain brand of equipment isn't my style. I try LOTS of stuff, some makes the grade, others does not.
Far as the Echo CS-590/600/620 series go, they make the grade and excellent value for the money spent. If I can "prep" a CS-590 and hand it to a professional who runs a tree removal business and his crew can't kill it, and matter of fact they love it for a ground saw, and it's still getting it done every single day w/o the first issue one, that says something for the product.
I even added a CS-600 and CS-620 to my line-up, but still running the CS-590 as hard as I can just to see if I can kill it, or even find a "weak" spot someplace, which I did. The laminated lower end bar is now unserviceable, so it went in the scrap pile. Otherwise zero issues and I've cut a LOT of wood with that saw in the past year or so, probably close to a cord a week as I'm clearing 20 acres across the road that was recently timbered. I've been using the CS-590 almost exclusively on that project and aside from wearing out a couple of chains it's getting the job done and making the grade......FWIW......Cliff

My opinion is no more valid than any unbiased user. The problem is that the Echo salesmen show up on every thread that mentions Echo to protect their interest. Always. Every time. Like a mob. Dog piling in a frenzy. Hilarious and predictable. In my mind, their opinions are invalid due to this and this alone. I have come to not like them and write things to annoy them, which is really against my nature. But I know bullies when I see them. I learned long ago that some people protect their money unreasonably.
Then they (mostly Steve) try to discredit others with assumptions about their experience level or intentions with virtually no knowledge of same.
And Mr. Cliff, there are guys like yous on all the forums too. In fact, forums are dominated by guys selling stuff. Talk about BS. Team Echo tries way too hard and it is obvious to me, and others too, I`m sure.
Simply stating likes and dislikes on this site about any Echo saw brings them running. Heaven forbid there is a dislike...`
I don`t think I am the only one who has noticed this propensity
Cliff and Andyshine know more about saws and how to run them than you will ever. Your brand bashing opinion means absolutey nothing. How old are you , maybe 12. If you were smart you'd quit your bs but I don't think that will happen Steve

I'm not a salesman and have no stake in echo other than being a highly satisfied customer. I've own a CS-620 and bought a CS-590 for someone at church. He absolutely loves the saw and remarks how solid it feels compared to other saws he has borrowed. They both start easier than most of the stihls and Huskies that get brought to our church work days. Those guys laugh when we pull out the echos until ours start so much quicker.
Just a sample of two but....

Thank you.
This is an old thread but I'm going to revive it by updating my experience..
2015 I sold my Poulan Pro 380. People who remember back when PP 380 was a good 60cc saw will appreciate what I'm saying. The 380 was getting old, still ran great but I wanted an update. I bought the CS 590 echo. Around the same time my two younger brothers decided to buy new saws. We all own farm land and we're clearing land and cutting firewood. Baby brother bought Echo 620 other brother bought Sthil 391. These saws all seem solid and we all like these saws.
Brother with Sthil 391 and I were bucking a huge downed oak. My cs590 was fitted with a 24 inch bar his Sthil was wearing a 20 inch bar. Chains a similar. The cs590 cut right along with the Sthil391. The Echo cs 620 with 24 inch bar and the CS 590 cut about the same. We couldn't see much difference working that tree. We were not racing or stop watching cuts just working. The brother with the Sthil was blown away with the Echo saws. He sat his Sthil beside my cs590 and remarked how much plastic my saw has. Then he said it sure cuts good to be so much cheaper.
Recently I dropped a huge oak with the cs590. It's not a Sthil but it's a very good saw.

Besides the bar cover on the echo being plastic (assuming the stihls in mag) what else would the differences be? starter cover, filter cover, top cover, tank and front handle would be plastic on both of the saws.
IF the bar cover being plastic bothers someone they can change it for $35 with a Echo Mag bar cover.
