How awkward is the blower attachment and how well does it stack up against a hand held blower. Is it strong enough to blow leaves from the lawn?

Thanks to all for the feedback, very much needed, as my only experience with Echo has been a PB250 hand held blower that the coil crapped out on and the price of a new coil was a shocker. For $40 more than the asking price of the coil I could buy a new blower. So, been shy of Echo ever since. I...

I have a question for those of you experienced with pole saws. I picked up a brand new Echo PAS-266 with string-line trimmer attachment from a fellow off of CL for $125 on Christmas Eve. It was a gift for Christmas but he already had a Stihl trimmer. I am in the market for a pole saw. Would I...

No disagreement here, that's why my hairy berries were the size of bb's the whole time I was on the ladder. even though I worked 8 years, alternating between utilizing either a ladder or gaffs climbing poles, I wasn't thrilled about using a ladder. Tree surgeons here are not returning calls...

With no recommendations, I decided to drop the limb this afternoon. Pretty much played out like I feared. Lacking experience working with hollow trees and cutting from a ladder didn't help matters either. Playing it safe, I cut 1/3 way through the limb, climbed down and removed ladder from the...

I have a hollow water oak that lighting struck and took out the upper half of the tree. I need to drop a limb before dropping the rest of the tree. The limb is rather long and overhangs across the roadway. Seeking recommendations for the best way to drop this limb safely See pics attached

Sorry for slow response, changed my social status and haven;t been online in a long time. Thanks for your generous offer and sharing your experience and knowledge pertaining to aftermarket parts. I'll probably get the itch again to fix the 260 once the weather cools again. No problem going...

Picked up this 2002 MS260 off CL dirt cheap, advertised as parts saw. Cosmetically, it looked as if it had never been cleaned, it appeared to be covered in wet saw dust and soil that had dried on the exterior and chain and recoil cover was packed full of debris. Wipe down revealed nicely...

Never mind, I found website to order from....
