    Niiiice saw!
    I hope you have more success with the kickstand on your log jack than I have seen with mine. I ended up removing the “Tee.”

    Love those saws! Had one of those log jacks myself, did not last long for me either, ended up with a Stihl branded peavey, love it.

    Congrats on the new saw!

    You'll be happy !! I'm sure I'll get some tails bushy but I think Echo's are the best made saw today.

    I removed mine too. Then ground the tab flat. Log jack is great in theory but doesn't ever seem to work all that well. I usually just want to roll the log to finish the cuts.

    I snapped the T off of my log jack. It was nice while it lasted though. Mine may have been a cheap POS though and hopefully yours passes on to many generations of woodwhores.

    Nice! I assume the 620 means 62cc. That’s a great size for firewood.

    I bought the stand when I got my logrite hook and I never found it useful but I did find it got in the way.

    Great new saw Chris! :thumbs: Best of luck with it. The T bar is detachable on my cant. I seldom use it but it can be handy. Like the others have said i use it mostly to roll logs.

    Im loving the big double sided dogs. I picked the echo because the more research i did on stihl and Husqvarna I personally wasnt a fan of how computerized they have gotten with their saws. Also have had several stores in my area drop Husqvarna for echo. My cousin is a mechanic and works for a big city. They just bought 5 stihl models And 3 were in and out of the shop multiple times for the Mtronic issues. I know stihls are awesome saws and i used them professionally for years this is just info i gathered to make my decision. I heard Husqvarna is giving big problems supporting there warranty’s, thats also why dealers are dropping them. Price and warranty were the big deciding factors. Also i can work on the echo without having to bring it into the shop to get hooked up to a computer. I cant wait to go play with it today.
