I cant find the time (or patience) to learn how to hand file....but I know I need to.

Like I tell Rattler, I can ground enough chains in an hour the file for a week lol Especially at my fathers place where most of the wood is skidded or dragged with a tractor and dirty, on the ground and just plain rough...

I'm playing catchup on this thread. I just finished reading all 20 pages and just wanted to give a big thank you to the OP. Very interesting and informative. You have taken a lot of time to bring some really good, unbiased information to all of us wood cutters.

I got my 620p at Christmas and I am absolutely loving it. Back in the winter, I made a comment that this machine would compete with Stihl's 362 and Huskies 562. I basically got laughed at. Echo's have always been a simple, reliable, quality built, and UNDERRATED machines. Times are changing and I'm glad Echo's are finally getting some well deserved love. Bottom line is this: Competition is a win win for us consumers. The minute any manufacturer rests on their past success is the minute they get clobbered by their competition. Over the next few years, I believe Echo will become a much bigger player. It will no longer only be about Stihl and Husky.

Got a new TTO tachometer/hour meter mounted to the 620PW with the 20" bar... max rpm shown can't wait until its broken in all the way!

Same here most of the wood I cut is not the cleanest and hard on chains

Exactly.

I just got done reading this whole thread. Nice saws and awesome videos! I have handled the 620pw, and the build quality seems to be excellent. the only thing that turns me off about Echo saws is the lack of aftermarket parts, or am I wrong. For example I don't see any replacement sprockets listed on Oregon's website. Excuse me if I'm wrong I don't know near as much about saws as most you guys do. I would just like to be able to get parts years from now if I need to. But the 620's look really impressive though.

For the 600 and 620 the large spline stihl sprockets are what you are looking for

You can get just about any part for any Echo ever made including sprockets:

Hahahaha. Echo could make a saw that would rev to 50,000, weigh 2 pounds, cut a 40" log in 10 seconds, and cost $125 and people like ST would still bad mouth them.

Yes thank you. Did about 4-5 chains on it today and really liked it, super easy to use.
