Picked up a clean used 590 today. started 1st pull runs & strong. oiler issue, tear down reveled worn gear shroud melted into oiler and worn sprocket teeth. My guess it was run w/o chain oil as it came w/new bar and chain. $60.00 in parts ordered, should be up and running next week. $220.00 all in including new parts, very pleased after watching your review.

One of the most detailed video's of this kind out there. Thanks mate

Your voice sounds alot like hugh laurie's from House. Those cs590s have a loyal following on youtube. I've the stihl counterpart which is the ms310. It's about 15 years old and I'm waiting on a carburetor rebuild kit and new fuel to come in. Hopefully I can get a few more miles out of it until I need a new saw.

A buddy of mine has a 590 and a 620 and hasn't cleaned the filter in-well-he hasn't ever cleaned the filter and the bloody saws still run!

At 97 pulls why didn’t you hold the throttle…love my echo products. Never an issue with any of them. All of them are one pull with choke, it pops, and second pull it fires. All of them are cold blooded till they warm though and die exactly like it was in the video. They all take atleast 5 tanks to start breaking in

I use it myself sometimes, and I agree with the ease of use. The hardest thing for me is choosing what to use on a project. I have so many options.

Great idea, but dump that “music” and add a little description of what you’re doing. Thanks!

Did you like the Odies? Or would you rather use a different product next time?

What you did is a real piece of art. So beautiful. REMARK: Your fingers were much much too close to your blade--please think about that so you can keep making much more beatiful things for us to watch.

Why get your hands so close to the blade when you had the sled handy? Serious question, not trying to be a jerk

That tutorial saved me hours of frustration on my future jewelry box build.

Great work on your project 👏👏

Wow, look at the grain on that thing! And you got a gorgeous finish on it. It looks silky smooth.

Considering these are also rebranded as Mccullochs and how notoriously hard these things are to start, a part of me wants them to re introduce a factory electric start option like Mcculloch had in the mid 60s, i know its not the same company anymore but i can dream lol.

Great video really great editing, question if you don't mind me asking where do you get your b roll music I've heard that song befor and id love to use it

I just started my new 590 for the first time today. It only took 5 pulls with the choke lever out then three more pulls with the choke lever in. Just one question. Did you accidentally leave the stop switch in the stop position?

I came across this because I'm planning on a sliding bookcase on a smaller scale so I won't be motorizing it, but I just wanted to say what a fantastic build this was. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing how you put it all together.

Anyone that knows how to fix a welding machine is smarter then the average bear. That ruck would be great if 4x4..........

Not so secret when there is a .5 to 1 inch gap between the bookcase and the perpandicular wall it butts up to

The first time I ever fired it up brand new took a little bit as well ever since then fires up in 3 pulls even if it sits for months.

I just poured a little gas down the carb and it started on the third pull!

Exhaust melting plastic 97 pulls not me

I wish I had the patience that you seem to have. You are definitely NOT a quitter. When the saw seized after the first rebuild, I probably would have smacked it against the nearest tree and went home with a grin, like I showed it. lol I'm impressed by your determination. Good job!

I have a Stihl MS361 and I agree with you about the cover design. It's a real pain to get to the spark plug. I've ripped up 2 spark plug boots already.

All those problems with a brand new saw ? Yikes

WOULD YOU BUY A SAW THAT TOOK 97 PULLS TO START ? And have to buy parts so the air filter doesn't clog carb ? Duh ?

It is a deck you are making yourself, I would have made 2 x 7 inch boards.

Bought my stihl 361 exactly 18 years ago today. It has never let me down, not once. Now after 18 years Im starting to look into having the saw O/H'd with New carb membranes, oil/gas filters etc. It hasnt seen extreme heavy use - but "stihl" after 18 years, thats impressive.

Nice video. I have had a CS-590 for several years and like it very much. My only complaint is that the rear handle loop is NOT large enough to get my foot in there to secure the saw during starting.

Operating a drill press with gloves on......

Just the other day mine fired right up after few pulls. Had the decompression valve pushed in and choke out about 5 pulls it fired, then pushed the choke back in the saw fired up within 2 more pulls. That’s when the saws been sitting for long time after the initial start it’s goes easier rest of the time.

Two fun things about these saws the first start is always a B####. Second thing is after your 2nd full tank of fuel in a day your rpms and power goes up

thanks

what jack stands are you using? beefy

Save yourself time and a headache by using a ratcheting adapter for a break over bar and a drill adapter for sockets. You can use it on multiple engine set ups because it is reversible.

Great video! You've earned a loyal subscriber! I also have the CS-590. Mine starts easily unless it's really cold outside. I'm going to be doing a review video on my channel of it very soon.

Mine starts very easy. Don’t use the decomp and push the choke in after 3 pulls regardless if you hear the pop or not. If flooded have to pull with throttle wide open. Never have had any problems with mine, solid saws especially for the price.

Just bought one new for $389.99 (regularly $449.99)from a dealer who set it up and started it before I left the store. I've started it cold 4-5 pulls and 1-2 hot. I don't use the decompression button. I always had Stihl but they are much more expensive and when I asked the dealer about starting problems, he said they have had more problems with the newer Stihls.

Nice job. Well engineered install.

It appeared many of those starting pills were repeats. Good editing Uncle Mike. But why portray what it pretty universally known as about the easiest starting brand as something other? The only thing I trust about this guy is his OBS.

Good job...but did you reinforce the c- channel of frame..i didnt see it...just a thought not a criticism.

I like the video and found a used complete flat bed I can put on my 2011 Silverado 3500HD. I think If I can load 3 yards of dirt that will be awesome, I believe the Gross weight posted was 13,000. I made a flat bed with skirts and well might try to get some money out of it now.

I bought a 590 in December. After some experimentation I found it will consistantly fire with following method. Stone cold. Choke button pulled out, decompression activated, pull it once. It dosen't evan cough, perfect. Push choke button in, pull it once more and it is running, EVERY time. After 20 seconds or more warm up, do nothing but pull the cord once and it is running, EVERY time. Outstanding working saw!

Ain't got no gase innit.

Very interesting...really appreciated the filming and commentary. Thoroughly convinced me I probably shouldn't tackle this job. Lol. Is that a Hobart 140?

Your saw is too lean on the bottom. Pull the limiters, trim the tabs off and reinstall. Give yourself a 1/4 more turn rich. (Counter Clockwise). Get yourself a set of West Coast Dogs, much longer. Gearhead makes a better exhaust deflector available at Saw Salvage. To be really cool, install the coil from the 620..it will raise the rev limit and give you 6° of advance..

That is a great saw! Looks like you do a fair amount of cutting. I just bought four new Echo saws in the last two months. The 800p, 620p, 4910 and a 355t they all started up really easy. Don’t remember any of them to taking very many pulls for the first start or any start after that. It looks like your bar is getting excessively hot. Just wondering if you adjusted the manual oiler adjustment screw on the bottom of the saw to full open? Good video and thanks for sharing.

Amazing!

I just pulled my new 590 las week and it popped after 5 pulls. That was odd.

lmao 97 pulls??? I'm wondering if there's something wrong with the fuel delivery. I bought a timbywuff from homedepot, gassed it up in the parking lot and she popped off after 11-13 pulls or so.
