B. Other Safety Precautions

1.Do not operate a chain saw with one hand! Serious injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders, or any combination of these persons may result from one- handed operation.

A chain saw is intended for two-handed use.

2.Do not operate a chain saw when you are fatigued.

3.Use safety footwear, snug-fitting

clothing and protective gloves.

Wear eye, hearing, and head protection devices.

4.Use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at least 3 m (10 feet) from the fueling point before starting the engine.

5.Do not allow other persons to be near the chain saw when starting or cutting with the chain saw.

Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area.

6.Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.

7.Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is running.

8.Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw chain is not contacting anything.

9.Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body. When carrying a chain saw with the engine running, push the front hand guard forward to engage the chain brake.

10.Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.

11.Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw down.

12.Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.

13.When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring-back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is released.

14.Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture.

15.Operate the chain saw only in well ventilated areas.

16.Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have been specifically trained to do so.

17.All chain saw service, other than items listed in the Instruction manual maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent service personnel.

(For example, if improper tools are used to remove the flywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the flywheel could occur and could subsequently cause the flywheel to burst.)

18.When transporting your chain saw, use

the appropriate guide bar scabbard.

19.Spark arrestor mufflers approved to SAE Standard J335 are standard on ECHO chain saws to reduce the possibility of forest fires.

Do not operate the chain saw with a loose or defective muffler.

Do not remove the spark arrestor screen.

The Echo CS-620P is a robust and versatile chainsaw designed for professional users and serious enthusiasts alike. It is renowned for its powerful performance and user-friendly features, making it a popular choice among forestry workers, landscapers, and agricultural specialists.

At the heart of the Echo CS-620P lies a powerful 59.8cc professional-grade, 2-stroke engine. This engine is engineered for efficiency, offering ample power to tackle a variety of cutting tasks, from felling large trees to limbing and bucking. The engine is equipped with a PureFire technology, which ensures lower emissions and improved fuel efficiency. This means users can work longer with fewer refueling stops, contributing to both cost savings and environmental sustainability.

One of the standout features of the CS-620P is its lightweight design, weighing only 13.2 pounds. This allows for enhanced maneuverability, reducing operator fatigue during extended use. The chainsaw also incorporates an ergonomic handle that provides a comfortable grip and better control, ensuring precise cutting even in challenging positions.

The CS-620P features a 20-inch bar and chain, allowing for a wide cutting capacity that can handle various log sizes.

Additionally, the chainsaw includes a tool-less chain adjustment system, making it convenient to adjust the tension without needing additional tools.

Safety is a critical consideration in chainsaw design, and the CS-620P addresses this with features such as an inertia-type chain brake, which automatically stops the chain in the event of kickback. The chainsaw also includes a guide bar cover for protection and a rear hand guard that offers additional safety.

Maintenance is simplified thanks to the easy-access air filter and an automatic, adjustable oiler that ensures optimal lubrication of the chain and bar during operation. This prolongs the life of the equipment and enhances cutting performance.

Overall, the Echo CS-620P combines power, efficiency, and user-friendly design, making it an ideal choice for professionals who demand reliability and performance in their cutting equipment.
