Echo HV-110XG manual Industry Firsts, who cannot achieve similar ratings

Ask any landscape pro or arborist, “Who makes the most powerful and dependable outdoor power equipment?” and they’ll say, “ECHO” and “ECHO Bear Cat”.

ECHO Incorporated was founded in Northbrook, IL, in 1972 as Kioritz Corporation of America and established under its present name in 1978, moving to Lake Zurich, IL in 1985. ECHO

originally imported high-performance 2-stroke engines and 2-stroke, engine-powered handheld products for Kioritz Corporation of Japan. Over time, ECHO developed engineering and manu- facturing techniques that became the impetus for the company’s advancement.

Today, ECHO continues to manufacture high performance, handheld outdoor power equipment for industry professionals and discerning homeowners and is the technological innovator in the industry. ECHO is the only 2-stroke engine-producing company that possesses all

manufacturing capability in-house. Using only commercial-grade components, ECHO equipment is certified to the EPA’s highest engine emission durability rating available - 300 hours. That means the ECHO products in your tool trailer or garage will last and last, well beyond those of competitive brands

who cannot achieve similar ratings.

And with the acquisition of Bear Cat Chippers and Chipper/Shredders, ECHO and ECHO Bear Cat are the industry’s most reliable source for the best in tree care equipment. Through unparalleled engineering standards and patented manu- facturing techniques, ECHO and ECHO Bear Cat will remain the industry leaders… just ask any pro!
