Stihl and Echo Chainsaw Review- Which is Better?

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Following the Stihl test, the Echo Timberwolf CS-590 is used for its timed cut on the same log, with identical setup and timing procedures. The operator, wearing full safety gear (including chainsaw chaps, earmuffs, face shield, hard hat, and safety glasses), executes the cut. Notably, the Echo Timberwolf performs the cut smoothly without any noticeable hesitation or bogging down. The recorded time for this cut is 34 seconds. The presenter emphasizes that the Stihl required repositioning (walking around the log) due to its shorter bar, adding to its overall time, whereas the Echo's longer bar allowed a single continuous cut.

Goal: Measure the cutting speed and directly compare the Echo Timberwolf's performance to the Stihl.

really guy a minute four seconds a minute four seconds now we're gonna do the exact same cut with the timbrel aw okay but he did have to adjust before I had to walk around because that's a smaller bar so that takes time so that was like what four or five seconds maybe we got add so maybe around 40 so how did it feel though it didn't
