As an employer I actually prefer that my guys use my saws and do not bring in their own. It's a liability thing if a saw gets broken.
If that was a rule round here I would straight up quit my job. Ain't no way I'm running company saws, would rather starve and be buried 6 foot under!
I see. Didn't know that for im am still learning. What do you have your guys running for limbing?
Lol yea I think I'd be the same cause I know my equipment and trust its operating correctly. Not only that the 2 echo saws I would take are less than a month old so I'd have 5 years of warranty to burn through before anything like that occurred even still I'd probably see if there was some kinda waver I could sign labeling the company not responsible for damage to personal equipment. I'm a motorcycle by trade and if I broke a tool on a pos atv I wouldn't make the shop buy me a new one because I'm the one in control of that tool and its use. Luckily most of my 72in snapon box drawers are full of lifetime warranty tools.
You better read the fine print on that warranty, I think it is 2 years if used professionally, home use maybe, but 5 years?
Need a better company who takes care of equipment...
Yeah, for a climber, but not for a groundie
Gotcha.
And echo CS 352 with a 16 inch lead or smaller it’s a great limb cutter fast and light Space upgrade with the Oregon lead and Oregon aggressive chain no substitutes for sharp chain nothing more dangerous than Dull chain.
I believe it is good. I started my tree work 30 hrs. ago and had several Echo limping models. They are in a storage tote waiting for my time to recondition and use again or sell. One of the best Echo 2-handle saws I have is a CS-5000 that I bought new. I also bought a new two-handled CS-440 but it was underpowered. Then I upgraded to STIHL saws about 2007. My STIHL MS200T was a great workhorse for about 11 seasons then it was put aside for aDeWalt 20V cordless DCC620P.
