    After a surgery, Christmas, and New Years I am finally able to try out my new Echo Cs590 Timberwolf. I am used to using my little Stihl MS180c. This Timberwolf is an absolute beast! I’m loving it!

    The stack for today ended up about 9’ long and ended up just shy of 6’ tall A91F43D3-D895-4782-A21B-C240877E83DC.jpeg

    Great saws for the money and a big upgrade from a 180!

    a little muff mod and pull the limiters and you'll notice a nice gain in power. I didnt go too crazy but it definitely impressed a few buddies that didnt think it could take down a 460 Rancher.

    Open the muffler up with an extra port & remove the catalytic converter if it has one. Remove the limiting caps on the H & L mixture screws & retune carb more fuel delivery will give a decent power gain in those saws. They're kinda corked up to meet EPA emission requirements.

    I’ll look into it. Will any of that void the warranty?

    I do my own work so i modded mine the day they arrived lol
    Yes it will void the warranty
    Wait until your 5 year's are up.
    They are a fine running saw stock
    I had 2 of them for over five year's
    Never even used the second one.
    No need the first one did everything
    And i did a lot of cutting.
    The only thing i did otherwise was put
    An o ring under the air filter
    It keeps all of the fine dust particles
    Out of the engine.
    Carb stayed clean after i did that.

    Hands down the best saw for the money in its size. I got mine in November and love it. And you can’t beat the 5 year warranty! 7617C6AB-4ACF-447F-8124-C8A4951FF94F.jpeg
