Two new chainsaws from Echo

12 February 2008

ECHO are pleased to announce the launch of two new chainsaws, the CS-351WES and the CS-450.

Aimed at landscapers and commercial users, the new CS-351WES is equipped with the ECHO 35.8cc two stroke engine, and a 35cm bar.  With a weight of just 3.6kg, this model is lightweight yet powerful, and provides the operator with easy access controls, on a superbly balanced saw.  The CS-351WES benefits from the ECHO Easy-Start system, which makes the starting procedure almost effortless.  The CS-351WES has a SRP of  £279 + Vat.

The larger CS-450 runs on a powerful 45cc two stroke engine, and is fitted with a 40cm bar.  The CS-450 has been built to perform to the most exacting standards, and provides the user with outstanding reliability.  An SRP of £439 + Vat makes the CS-450 extremely good value for the power and performance provided by this model.

In addition to many anti-vibration improvements, both new models have the new ECHO automatic lubrication feature, where the oil pump for the bar and chain is attached to the clutch. This means that the automatic lubrication of the chain ceases when the chain is not turning, therefore when the saw is idling, there is no oil being pumped to the bar and chain, resulting in zero oil leaks, and less oil is used.

Both the ECHO CS-351WES and CS-450 have the innovative feature of automatic chain oiling, which is adjustable by the operator to suit different timbers of varied density and hardness.  This versatile lubrication results in smoother cutting and prolongs the working life of the bar and chain.

ECHO Chainsaws are distributed in the UK by Countax Ltd, and are available from authorised ECHO dealers.
