ECHO LAUNCHES
NEW LOW EMISSION
CHAINSAW
CHO has launched the
E CS-621SX heavy-duty rear
handle chainsaw. The new
saw is a reduced emissions version
of their best-selling CS-620SX,
yet it retains all the power and
dependability of its predecessor.
This is a chainsaw built for arborists
and landscaping professionals who
use this type of saw daily for felling
large trees.
The CS-621SX boasts a new 59.8cc
low emission, professional-grade
2-stroke ECHO engine, designed
and manufactured in Japan. It is
the latest chainsaw in the ECHO
X-series of ‘Best in Class’ products
which aim to be industry-leading in
terms of power and performance.
The saw is packed with advanced
features to help the commercial
operator power through their
work. For a heavy-duty saw, it is
surprisingly lightweight at only
6.3kg (dry weight) but that doesn’t
take anything away from its cutting
performance, which exceeds that of
many higher capacity machines. Its
balance and ergonomic design offer
manoeuvrability and precision, with
dual bumper spikes enabling better
control when sawing through stumps
and thicker branches.
The CS-621SX is a superior saw
in every respect, say ECHO, with
its range of additional features
designed to make the working
day easier and more productive.
There’s a decompression button for
easy starting, a side-access chain
tensioner and drop prevention
nuts which can’t be lost during
maintenance. A rotating plastic
chain catcher is designed to help
protect the user from potential
injury while also preventing chain
damage.
The heavy-duty aluminum handle
has a secure rubber grip and reduces
vibration in the hand. Fuel and oil
caps are made larger for easier filling
and the fuel tank is translucent to
show the fuel level. The ‘G-FORCE’ air
cleaner system features a large air
filter to keep out debris.
It all adds up to a powerful,
durable and heavy-duty chainsaw
built to ECHO’s usual exacting
specifications, which is borne out by
a two-year professional or five-year
domestic warranty.
