Just another junk chainsaw

[xyz123]

Another load of parts came in. Only 1 more part in route, if I guessed right in my mind parts needed.

I traded that 4910 I just got in for a 2511PN with Egan pipe.

CS-2511PN X Series Rear-Handle Chainsaw | ECHO

Hoping brown santa shows up with it today.

I am looking forward to seeing your comparison between a real 2511 and a clone. I love my 2511 with the Egan pipe, it's a flippin mouse that thinks it's a grizzly bear.

IMO with that Egan pipe on there alone, which is better then some of the ported muffer modded ones I have seen the dyno runs on.

It shouldnt be a contest. Closed port OEM too. Now if it had a stock muffler that is clogged up it maybe closer. Just because the open port clones have a open muffler with tiny pipe.

OEM has that 12" narrow kerf 325 043. Clone I got 1/4" mini micro 043
So should be good clean smooth pruning cuts I bet with 325 too.

Snow over ice here still so nothing happening.

Someone put my little echo inside a stihl box so it wouldn’t get stolen on way here.

All in jest guys.

Echo 2511 rear handle PHO weight dry 2511PN

Echo 2511 rear handle PHO weight both tanks full

Echo 2511 rear handle both tanks full. 12" 325 043 narrow kerf chain weight as used

Egan pipe was already installed for these weights.

Finally got rid of the cheap plastic feeling vibrating handle. Went ahead and put the rubber coated rear piece too.

That echo 490 used.

Put new 501 set on.

On 490 all fasteners needed to be cut shorter.

Plastic fasteners longer due to plastic.

If the open port clone had the 325 043 or the 3/8LP 050 set up with Egan pipe I think it would be real close.
I run the 1/4" 043 mini micro for smooth pruning cuts. Watching the sides of cuts the 325 043 narrow kerf is going to do this too.
Not all chattering like 3/8LP does.

Plus gave me a chance to cut some apple wood for the smoker.

I also cut on the bigger wood their setting on too.

Guy I traded 4910 to said 4910 fastener same length as 501 used for handle.

So didn’t need shorten like 490 did.
