I don't cut off stumps, I grind them.

You have to stump them before you grind them DA.

You cant grind this. You need to stump it first.

48" across.

Once stumped then you grind them.

I almost picked up a 661C with a 36” bar last week. Sent money and found it was a scam or an idiot. Luckily I was able to get money back.
Back to lookin…..

I had one of those dolmar 90cc 9000 9010. Like said parts really tough to find. I wouldnt stump with it unless willing to write it off.

Mine was early one that had to be updated with 9010 fly and coil.

Had the dual bar mount option. Dont know if they did that later on or not.

A couple real easy mods will make it run even better. Get rid of the top baffle on the muff but keep the USDA spark arrestor screen and pull the limiter caps and tune it a bit and then replace the caps. Echo from the factory sets them a tad rich.

My experience with several Echo saws, over many years now, is that they're set lean from the factory. I have yet to come across one set rich.

All mine and ones that come in that started to score were all set lean from echo too.

Dealer friend he has seen lately some are rich though. So maybe their getting the feedback.

One guys 590 was so lean 6 months on it and was starting to score after buying it new. Epa caps were still on it too.
I took saw on trade and fixed it and sold it off.

Just buy a new one and get it over with. You can afford itm saws are chump cgabge compared to tractors, new pickup trucks and large implements.

The longer you procrastniate the more expensive they become.

Both my Timber bear and the 620 came jetted rich, not lean. Not a big deal, easy to adust. Big improvement with an Echo is relieving the back pressure in the can.
