You’re a lucky man mister!!! Your wife appears to be not only an absolute sweetheart to put up with your crazy butt but she’s just as cute as can be…and she’s helping with the wood cleaning up work!!! What a lovely lady!!! You two kids are adorable together!!! ❤️👍😁. An absolute angel !!!! Again… Hoping that y’all’s Thanksgiving is just a wonderful day and hopefully you’ll get to love on those Grandyoungen’z !!! Just don’t get any better!!! Much Love & God Bless!!!
Hey! Actual useful tip for ya: Milk crate!!! When you're picking up all the little pieces and nubbins. The 'flats' that certain sizes of soda bottles come in at a gas station are great too if you can find a sympathetic employee.
Just took apart my CS-501 to port it. It has 3 tanks of gas through it and the rings hadnt even completely seated. They had even wear through the center 3rd of the ring, still has a little ways to go i guess. Thanks for all the tech info you put out on your channel!
So, I get that this saw is excellent. I don't blame you a bit for loving it. I wish they'd bring them stateside as I'd own one. Curious how it would compare to a husky 543xp or the discontinued Stihl ms241. (I know how much you love stihls)
I really love my 501p so far.. and I've loved my 3510 for a long ass time. I bet this would be one of those "sweet spot" saws. Echo does medium/big saws well.. but they do the light nimble saws REALLY well.
I have a 501p and it's OK but I was hoping for a little more than OK. Kind of inconsistent, sometimes rich, sort of lack luster. My 620p and my 3510 impress me but not the 501. I'll spend some time with it to make sure it's not a tuning issue. I realize that the Stihl 261c is much more expensive but wow that saw rips. There not even in the same league which I say begrudgingly. I keep the 501 because when I drag a log over a chainsaw I would rather it be a carburetored saw that I'm better at fixing. I've lived this reality and may never recover from the site of my beloved 620p under a 20" oak. Was the perfect storm and I'm happy to report its back in the wood again.
@@markw2266 Have you worked on it any? I opened up the round port in the muffler with a step bit until I got close to the welded nuts, ditched the insert tube, and swapped out the outside deflector plate with a (modified) one off a shinny 452. That REALLLY helped it breathe. The muffler work made a hige difference. Pulled the base gasket too but the squish number is still large. Probably going to get it ported just so I can get the jug decked and the compression up. I like a saw that fights me a little 😂 I really wanted the 501 for the weight. With a narrow kerf bar it's so nimble. It has about the same power as my husky 51 but handles way better. I was putting a LOT of miles on my 3510 and wanted to save it for my hike-in fenceline areas, atv/horse trail work, and some at home climbing jobs.
@@mattfleming86 thanks for the suggestions I'll give that a try. I just finished up a rehab of my dad's husky 51. Have not put it wood yet. It was so encased in bar oil and sawdust the whole saw would smoke once it made a few cuts. My dad's maintenance routine was add gas and oil which is technically important to the fuction of the saw. I was going tomsell it but it's now part of the collection.
@@markw2266 If you want to do reversible mods for warranty reasons or etc, get the Shindiawa/echo part number A313001460 deflector (super cheap), and modify it by opening up the furthest forward baffle (i just removed the front of it completely, easy with a 1" belt sander or dremel) and remove the drinking-straw tube. Then you still have both factory parts should you want to return it to stock, and can do so with 2 screws in about 30 seconds. The 501 seems intended for bucket truck use or ground crew use. The "choked up" nature has a big benefit in that it is SUPER quiet. One of the quietest saws I habe ever ran in factory setup. I keep my "drinking straw" in my truck just in case I need to be in a lower noise environment. Takes a few seconds and a quick re-tune The detriment of that is the substantial loss of power. But for people working in close quarters or in a fiberglass echo chamber bucket truck that may be just the ticket.
I have a feeling this is a rebadged Husqvarna 543xp. Which is a rebadged Zenoah Japanese saw. I’m getting the RedMax version. What do u think Boedy ?? Is it the same saw ??
That’s a little firecracker of a limber! The way that you are tossing it around I can tell it’s just light as a feather.., 40cc or something like that!!! It’s a cute little saw! You gotta Gmomma a pikeroon or log togs so she’s not having to been down all the way to grab the piece’s that’s a lot of low back working and stretching.., as long as she doesn’t get soar after it’s okay but you want to watch out for her low back there …, you didn’t introduce Mrs’s Bo-dog… what’s her name???
This weekend I'm gonna take one of my chineez 62 cc saws, the 150 homelite, super XL,and one of my 610's. I'm going to run at least a tank of gas apiece through them.
Good video, informative and fun to watch, Question, is the material behind the clutch drum / behind where the chain runs magnesium or plastic, not counting the bar plate which is stainless.
@@novicelumberjack Just turn the oiler down. Is the chain getting hot at all? I know my cs400 will drain the oil tank before the gas is empty if I got the oiler open 100%. It DRENCHES a 18” bar. Literally see it dripping down from the top bar rail
I hope they bring that saw here state side. I am curious as to why you @Novice Lumberjack feel the need to dog in and rotate on anything under 12". Multiple times you'd stop the chain even in what looks 4" wood. Just an observation. Never seen anyone do that unless the wood is larger.
I like it. Nothing more really. I like the way it feels. I guess...now that I think about it, this saw is running an Oregon semi-chisle, low kickback chain. It's freshly sharpened, but I try to always run full chisel and I was probably desiring the feel of a more aggressive chain. I might have been dogging in because the chain wasn't cutting like I wanted. Who knows. It's a really fun saw to use. Very lightweight, and decent power.
@@novicelumberjack I may have to source one. Dyno Joe has one he had sent here. I can ask him next time I see him to find out how he got it. I definitely prefer full chisel as well.
At what time in the video do you hear it? Surprisingly, I ran out of oil long before I ran out of FUEL! I've always had oiling issues with this saw. I just sent echo an email about it and will do a video about it soon. It pours oil out close to the case and the bar isn't being lubed properly. Gotta fix that!
Love echo saws have a cs 490 and a cs620 pw can't beat them for the money my next saw is either a cs 7310 or the husky 545 . I rarely cut anything bigger then 24" and 16" to 20" being most of what I deal with .I think I would get more use out of 50cc saw plus I would like to try an auto tune saw.I live in Alaska and the temperature in the winter time can be anywhere from 30 above to 20 below 0 or even colder.

The clean up crew is the best!
Just bought a 4910. I like it. Wouldn't mind buying that 4310sx if they ever bring em over. Your wife's a hard worker.
I absolutely love the fact. That you got yourself a new truck and your ALREADY putting it to work hauling wood
Just took apart my CS-501 to port it. It has 3 tanks of gas through it and the rings hadnt even completely seated. They had even wear through the center 3rd of the ring, still has a little ways to go i guess. Thanks for all the tech info you put out on your channel!
Great saw and some nice firewood for next year as well. Great teamwork with the pair of you as well.
Good job guys. I've got some of that to do when it warms up a bit here. Got two trees down that I need to get limbed and bucked.
Always fun getting to actually feel a 2 stroke breaking in!
Sucks about the oiling problems with that Echo. Have they got back to you?
That saw is running strong! Just picked up two Echo's last week John deere version of a Echo 70v and a 602vl.
Great team effort. You two make a good team
Great teamwork, makes the job go quicker.
I can definitely tell she's picking up rpms. That's a pretty slick saw bud, runs very nice.
Morning 🌄 a great way to start my day with the sound of a saw doing work 💪😎
Your saw is on the way. Sent it Friday.
@@novicelumberjack I can't thank you enough my man I can't wait to do a video when it arrives
Pretty cool little saw. Looks cool, too.
So hard to resist buying one of these

Time for a Husqvarna 543xp, echo CS4310, Dolmar PS420 and Stihl MS241 wackoff....
Not going to lie you might need two of those echos to outwork Irene. She's a machine as well! 💯 Damn nice saw though
I have a feeling this is a rebadged Husqvarna 543xp. Which is a rebadged Zenoah Japanese saw. I’m getting the RedMax version. What do u think Boedy ?? Is it the same saw ??
Good morning... nice video brother 👍
Been trying hard to find one of these saws can’t believe there not people selling them on eBay that can actually get them

It is absolutely a metal case saw. This is a professional saw not available in the US marketplace.
@@novicelumberjack thanks for answering, one more if you have time, has this saw spring dampers or rubber, or a mix of both.
@iamhere3417 I am pretty sure it's springs. Not 100% though, and it is already boxed up and sent out to Charles Brisco. He wanted to port it up.
Europe gets all the toys before we do. Would love to try out the 4310sx.
Nice little saw
Sure is
Still having oiler problems though. It ran out of oil before it finished a single tank of fuel! I'll make a video about it.

The only 4310 in North America! I wish Echo would just bring it over...
Good job y'all
You can tell that it's running a whole lot better than on your felling video.
I didn't get my fix this weekend. Now I'm jonesing.
I'm your pusher man.
I hope they bring that saw here state side.

@@MrJeepfreak1972 These appear to be rather expensive in Europe when you can find them. Looks like a nice saw though.
Good morning brother. A nice early morning rip to start the day. Man you can really hear that chain rotating!?

I heard it just as you started your zoom out about mid way down your first limb.
Just went back watched right at 2 minutes. You can really hear it sliding on the bar.
@@novicelumberjack any response from echo? Or fixed problem?
How far y'all from Columbus.

If you're going for the husky then get the G model with heated grips.
@@modarkthemauler and it also comes with a snow shield to protect the cooling fan. Just bought the 592xpg and it came with the shield
@@fibreguy1971 The non g models come with the starter shield as well. My non G 560xp also had it.
@@modarkthemauler That's interesting I don't think they do here in UK. Never bothered fit it as barely get snow but it is nice to have warm hands.
@@modarkthemauler I will look in two it thanks
Tune dat!
👍Awesome!
