Bob Wright here with my love for the Orange headed Echo saws. I have 20 some of them (lost count) with 13 being my fav the CS-60S. It was made for more than 40 years with very little changes (labels and some screws) . I have a 1969 Kyoritsu Noki version of it. I bought a little CS-315 in 1977 with my first paycheck and i still use it. I them bought a CS-60S in 1980 and i still have it also. I always wanted a CS-1001VL and i finally found one from rupedoggy. It needed the typ fuel and oil lines and also a new carb body because the holes were all egg shaped. So i found a donor carb on ebay and went to work making it all interchange. Now its a screamer...Bob

 I've only got one Echo saw .Can't remember the number but it was used by a tree service ,around 2 cubic inch give or take ..All things considered it probabley did them good considering the time period .The thing had a snarled up starter rope but that was all that was wrong with it .

Also I own an Echo weed wacker that has been a dandy, can't complain one bit about it .
