What modifications were needed?
I just layed the echo bar on the stihl and traced the holes. It didnt take much to open them up to fit. I did mine on a mill but a dremel would work just as well.

I can't speak for everyone but I took a 1/3 of the key away and opened the muffler pretty good and it definitely runs better. The carb tuning was kinda weird for me.
Woodruff key fixes the location of the fan.flywheel.magnet to the crankshaft. Sprocket or gear keyed to shaft. Key stock can also be a square rod of sortsWhat is a "key?"
Does anyone know when the echo 2511 WES will be available in the US?
Bit late on this reply, but if anyone is having trouble with the caps being tight, the recoil handle is actually designed to act as a wrench on the caps. I'd prefer smoother caps, but echo loves their flat rubber washers, and it's tough to think of a time when you wouldn't have the starter handle easily accessible when you need to refuel!I bought a 2511t for trail creation and maintenance. I take it in hiking or on my ATV. Love it. At age 65, light weight is probably the most important factor for me. The only cons for me... first, the fuel/oil caps are ridiculously hard to remove. Why! What's up with that! Not a problem to remove with a scrench but then I have to go get the scrench. You can use the recoil rope handle but I haven't quite mastered that yet. Last thing is that I have experienced the chain chatter some. I am thinking I will get it ported and hopped up when I can find someone who can do it. Which might include changing the bar and chain. Mine came with a 12" bar, I would like to go to 14" after it's hopped up. This will be my most used saw as long as I am doing trails.
Tried the 2511T on again today for size, along side the Husky T525 and the wrap handle on the Husky seems much more natural. The Husky handle extends straight out before taking a dive down where the ECHO seems to curve almost immediately. It seems like the Husky would afford more control from the second hand on the tool.
