T27 Bolts Echo 620P

[jcquade]

Finally decided to do a muffler mod on my 620P. Watched a ton of videos. Grabbed my T27 wrench and boy those bolts a tight. I put a quit a bit of pressure on it, but it did not break loose. Saw is a year old. Do I just keep torquing away at it till it breaks loose. I am sure it came from the factory like this. I guess I do not want to do any damage to it which I can't imagine what damage I would cause. I thought I would check on this forum before going further with the project. Surely the muffler is meant to come off.

Thank you!!

Take reasonable size hammer and give bolt head a couple of hits. Force level somewhere like hitting 2“ nail to pinewood.

I'd try bringing the saw up to operating temp then keep trying removal as it cools. The heat cycle can help loosen things up.
