Echo CS-590 Petrol Chainsaw (50cm Guide Bar)

With its advanced ergonomics and seriously powerful 59.8cc engine developing a muscular 4.1kg, it’s no surprise this impressively well-equipped machine has become one of Echo’s most popular professional felling saws!

The engine itself incorporates a diaphragm-type carburettor, which ensures the ideal fuel/air mixture is maintained at all times for optimised performance; and it employs a premium automotive-style air filter that works to extend engine life, and which can be quickly accessed without using tools. The fuel-capacity is a generous 0.65 litres.

Also important when it comes to the engine is its decompression valve and digitial CDI; a combination that makes getting started a reliable, low-effort operation.

The Echo CS-590 Petrol Chainsaw features friction-minimising automatic chain lubrication, which can be manually overridden, thereby enabling you to reduce oil-consumption. The amount of oil that’s delivered to the cutting-gear can be adjusted to suit the type of wood you’re working with.

Despite its rock solid build-quality and high-performance power unit, the CS-590 weighs just 6kg. Its low-weight build works with its high-specification vibration reduction and sleek, compact design system to maximise control and manoeuvrability, and to ensure operator fatigue is kept at bay for as long as possible.

Capable of handling substantial trees, logs, timber and branches, this model benefits from an expansive 50cm guide bar.
