@@nickroberts6964 my wife bought me the first baerskin as a present and paid 70 for it and after 6 weeks of waiting was so disappointed in it we complained at once and got a 40% refund and still felt we were done as I was not as advertised rain repellant or waterproof, windproof .and it was none of claimed things. Eventually was given a v2 hoodie for free and then a v3 . The quality has definitely improved but I honestly would not be happy if I paid the full retail price or there discount price .

@@Condor1970 I can't comment as I no longer own it. But as far as I know it is still running...and unless you stay I usa or China you won't get much help from neotec if you get problems...if you look after it and run it 40/1 it should be OK..is it the I version with the better carb , crank and cylinder.

@@richardsneddon2976 yes I've been watching since the 365/372 saga video I think. I've left a couple comments before but they were deleted for some reason.

Hi bud I have used a few farmertec cylinders now and the quality is mot bad at all . Like I said in the video though everything to get to me from there comes from China and for a kit saw I would be 200 quid or so then 100 for shipping and 100 for import tax ...last time I got some stuff from USA the items were 120 post was 25 so 145 in total but when it arrived here in the UK I had to go to the post depot and pick it up as I had to pay an extra 45 for import duty.....so that kit I buy at 200 would become near enough 400 ...that's why I am doing it this way ...all the parts are ordered now and I am 300 give or take ..so I save 100 ..

Also bud that 365 x torq that I rebuilt was fine when it was rebuilt ....not an air leak that caused the original issue ...it was after I rebuilt it and ran 3 tanks through it and I opened it back up to inspect the crank and see if it was a 372xp top end ..which it was ..I then put it back together and hey prseto an air leak..honestly I tried a new intake boot , a new flange and still it was there ..so I converted it to old school non x torq big bore , and it was gone ...I am very angry at myself for messing about with it again, I should never have opened it back up ...lesson learned...but its a beast now and a big difference from the x torq it was ...plenty of power ..

@@danwerkman hi bud just uploading another video today on yet more projects .

@@danwerkman I normally run everything 40 to 45 to 1 approx ....all the new saws or rebuilds I have done I have always put a little more into the saws tank for the 1st tank and let it idle and after the tank is done there is oil running down the muffler...yes probably too much ...I don't know if that is the right thing or not tbh ..this 365 was a full rebuild....I done the carb kit today and it's the same...I sprayed the intake with cleaner and found an intake air leak ..that's the problem bud ..I do generally run a new saw or cylinder with heavier oil for the 1st tank only then back to 40 to 1 ..

@@danwerkman I agree bud . Most of the time I use a 43cc or 50cc saw with a 15 or 16inch bar ..as they are light to work with but as you say if the wood gets bigger the so does the saw bud .

@@WillWood-oy7iz buy a tune carb tune kit from ebay for chainsaws and you will get one

I use 050 325 .. as its a narrower kerf on the cut and easier on the saw . The bar mount is k041 .. and it's echo sugihara bars as sugi branded bars I can only get laminate 050 but they are OK. If you have a look on the site chainsawbars.uk and use the search for echo cs 501sx you will get the bar numbers also there is a download able sugi catalogue on there

Sugi I don't think do 050 solid bars but when the 4310 came out in Europe echo started doing echo sugi 050 solid bars . Also if you struggling husqvarna 550xp bars are easily converted to fit . I run all the sx echo models and have more videos on them and explain the bar mount on there

Slight carb difference and the 621 is basically the European version

In the uk the older model was called the 620sx and had echo on the bar in red and I think the bar was tsumura and in the usa I think tha was called the 600p or 601p , the current model in the uk is the 621sx and has echo on the bar in black and is a sugihara and I think there is only a few other updates and that model in the usa is the 620p but there is meant to be a slight difference also in carbs

@@richardsneddon2976 Why is the 621 heavier by 0.1 kg and less power by 0.1 hp, lower maximum speed and lower consumption of 1.81 l/h instead of 2.05? I think the 621 is slightly strangled to meet European emissions standards. Most likely, screw H of the carburetor is slightly tightened and there is a catalyst in the muffler. In my country there are both models, and I realized that it is better to buy the 620sx, especially since it is 50% cheaper than the ms362, 562xp and 372xp and only 10% more expensive than the 501sx.

I can say you are probably right bud . But on the muffler there is definitely no difference between the American 620p and euro 621sx . Plus I have 5 echo saws 2 of the same model and only the 621sx has carb limiters my 501 , 4310 and 7310 don't have any just a small d tuning screw but in usa the 501p and 7310 both have carb limiters on them

@@richardsneddon2976 Thank you, I subscribed to your channel.

Any questions Dan don't hesitate bud

I see exactly what your saying about the 880...You are 100% correct. I use my 381 most the time with my topping saws. I have one 660 with a 32inch bar and I must say I only use that clearing fallen heavy trees. The rest I run with smaller bars so I can swing them around. Just something about the 880. Probably only use once or twice a year. Nice to add the collection. If you ever find one that's blown up or going cheap. I will take it for the parts and rebuild. Look forward to the next video

Hi bud I have an 880 here right now bud .

Yes the 038 clone is a good saw . . In fact I will put up a little vid of the 880 . If you were in the uk it's for sale at the moment same as well I have a lovely 365 husqvarna for sale as well

Right bud . Just about to upload a vid with my thoughts on this 880 . So check my channel later for it bud

I run 5 echo saws now 4310sx , 2 x 501sx , 621sx and I just bought the 7310sx . I have had stihls , husqvarnas now echos. The earlier stihls just before the m tronic saws were solid saws and probably some of the best saws ever made . The echos are like them I think and I honestly believe having had a ms240 a husqvarna 346xp and 550xp that the 501sx is one of if not the best 50cc saw ever made when you take into reliability, weight and the muffler mod is so easy to do then power as well. By far my favourite saw . I recently did a cylinder and piston on the second one I have , bought it really cheap and it had a lot of heavy use , the piston had some light scoring on it and it still ran well . The parts unfortunately is there only downfall as there is not an aftermarket parts selection like stihl and husqvarna other than that buy with confidence as long as it has a magnesium crankcase or an sx pro model and you will not be disappointed. Wait until you get 10 tanks of fuel through it then tune it up a little as out the box they are always pig rich

And yes around the same in the uk £650 to 700 pounds but sometimes there is deals available on Ebay and you can get them slightly cheaper. I wish we could get the same price as the usa as they can be had for around 500 or 350 for a 4910 which is pretty much the same saw

@@richardsneddon2976I own Dolmar 411,Makita AE43000 and Oleomac 650.I don't have saw in the class 50 cc. I will buy Echo 501sx. I love preparing firewood for my needs, 20 m for the heating season.

@@zoranradon9198 you won't go wrong bud, if you get the option on the bar make sure it's an 050 or 1.3mm gauge and not the 058 or 1.5mm as the saw performs way better . Makitas and dolmars are good saws as well bud and oleo mac is efco I have not had any experience with any of them but I have heard that makita are or have stopped 2 stroke power equipment bud

@@zoranradon9198 if you do buy one bud you need a 3mm and a 4mm T bar hex allen tools as nearly all bolts are 3 or 4 mm hex allen and a small d tuning key , no carb limiters on the 501sx either and heres some info you won't see anywhere or get told , the needle bearing on the sprocket can be greased with only taking the cover off as the crank shaft has a hole on the end and is cross drilled at the bearing so all you do is put your sprocket grease gun to it and give it a few pumps

I have the same air filter set up . There is nothing wrong with the saw only the air filter cover sits squint and I can assure you it's not the covers as I ordered different covers and they are the same. It must be the moulding of the actual tank handle that's out . But the saw runs fine. I just think that neotec should have noticed it and corrected it as it seems to be most of the 872i saws . And neotec were not interested they basically fobbed me off . But on the whole I am happy with the saw and I got it at a great price with delivery. If I had bought it direct from neotec it would nearly have been double the price. Be sure and go over the bolts to make sure they are tightened correctly

Every saw needs run in time not just echo saws . The 4310 or 501 are way better than the 4510 as its plastic. My 501 was used for nearly 4 years before I tuned it and it ran fine . Echo saws are held back a bit out of the box and the pro series ones I.e 4310sx , 501sx , 621sx are all pro saws with magnesium crankcase any one of those saws ran the way they come out the box are fine and they don't need to be tuned , only if you want the full potential of it that's all . Keeping them as they are with the proper fuel mix they will last for years . I have 4 echo saws and never had any issues with any of them . Top tip use echo power blend gold 2 stroke oil at 45"1 not 50'1

@richardsneddon2976 thanks Richard...nothing beats experience... see the local echo guys are lloyds farm machinery and their 510sx is around 670 with vat... only other thing is I saw another vid of yours where you thought the 18 inch bar was about pushing it too the max ... and you thought the 16 was a better choice... my current saw a stihl ms 260 just runs a 14 inch bar so either option would be longer .... you recommend the 16 over the 18...its just a general saw bit of firewood ... pointing odd straining posts n hedge laying ...bit of an all rounder 👍

@@alanyoung7655 I have other vids on it as well . I bought an old stihl 038 and done a lot of work on it and I had to buy a tachometer once I had refurbed it . After around 4 or 5 years of running the eco I put the tachometer on the echo and it was only sitting at 11500rpm out of a possible 13800rpm I turned it up a little to 12500 and the difference was incredible it was like a completely different saw . I then removed the restrictor from the exhaust which is very easy to do on that machine but wait for at least 10 tanks of fuel and re tuned it again to 12500rpm because when you remove the restrictor the rpm jumps up again. And again completely a different saw, better throttle response more torque, more power and getting the heat away quicker . I would now say it would run a 20 inch bar easily. But I still run 16 or 18 on it . The ms260 is also a great saw

Hi there you should watch my vids on my 501sx saws which I have 2 of them . I use 4 echo saws 4310sx 2 x 501sx and a 621sx . My favourite saw is my 501sx . A muffler mod on it take 5 minutes to do but you must tune it straight after as it will go lean , the 501 once modded will comfortably run a 20 inch bar as long as you use 50 gauge and Oregon speedcut chain. I had a 550xp for 5 years which I bought brand new and 2 weeks after I bought a 501sx nearly new . 5 years later the 550xp only had around 10 tanks on it and the 501sx had over 100 tanks on it . What does that tell you . The 4310 sx is a great little saw but max 18inch bar and that would be at a push and not all the time . I use a 13 inch bar on my one but it runs really well with a 15 inch . It is truly a great little saw but the 501sx is more powerful and a better all rounder .

Also as well bud have a look on KZbin at the amount of husqvarna 5 series saws with problems. They are great when running but when issues happen it can get very expensive. If you can get one cheap the echo 590 Timberwolf is also a great saw way better than the 460 rancher or stihl 291 . And both the 4310 and 501 don't have carb limiters and require a small d tune tool

@@richardsneddon2976 many thanks for your reply. I think it's a classic case of lured in by the orange casing opposed to actually thinking about what's better! Much appreciated. Best wishes .

@@andrewhughes8809 heres something to remember bud . It's not the current saws that got husqvarna and stihl there name. It's the older ones. Whatever you decide on make sure the one you get has a magnesium crankcase. If you can get one the shindaiwa 452s is a 45cc version of the echo 501sx . Echo 4910 is a budget 501sx but not available in Europe I think.

Hi there, thank you for your comment. The BÆRSkin Hoodie is reasonably weatherproof - that means you get protection from wind and damp weather. Hope to see you in our online store! Best,

Knockoff ?? Knockoff of what ? Did you actually watch this video . My wife bought it from the official baerskin web page , we complained and was given a 40% refund it even took nearly 8 weeks to arrive as for fleece hoodie not being waterproof or rain proof yes I know but if you seen the first ads for this around 2 years ago you would know they advertised it as that . I also have a few reviews on the v2 and v3 hoodie and they are much improved but the first was absolute rubbish

Thanks bud
