Frequently asked questions
Who is the Echo CS-2511T made for?
The Echo CS-2511T is listed for professional arborist use. It is a top-handle saw, meant to be handled one-handed by a climber working aloft on rope and harness, with a 25 cc engine and a dry weight of 2.36 kg. Anyone cutting from the ground is better served by a rear-handle saw.
How much does the Echo CS-2511T weigh, and why does that matter?
The Echo CS-2511T weighs 2.36 kg without bar and chain, and that low figure is the whole point of a top-handle saw: a climber holds it out at arm's length while suspended. Add the 30.48 cm bar, the chain, 0.189 litres of fuel and 0.139 litres of oil and the working weight climbs.
What bar length does the Echo CS-2511T take?
Echo recommends a 30.48 cm bar on the CS-2511T and allows a maximum of 35.56 cm. The 30.48 cm setup keeps the saw compact and quick to move between branches aloft, while the 35.56 cm maximum buys reach on thicker limbs at the cost of balance on a 25 cc machine.
How long can the Echo CS-2511T run on a tank?
The Echo CS-2511T carries 0.189 litres of fuel and 0.139 litres of chain oil. Echo does not publish a run time, but tanks that small are sized for a climbing saw used in short bursts. The ratio between the two means both empty at a similar rate, so refill them together.
What fuel does the Echo CS-2511T use?
The Echo CS-2511T runs on 2-stroke gasoline, meaning petrol premixed with two-stroke oil rather than straight pump fuel. Its 25 cc engine draws from a 0.189 litre tank, so a can of mix goes a long way. Echo does not publish the mix ratio here, so follow the machine and its manual.
