No. 72LPX70CQ, Includes Chain, Bar, Operators Manual ' Review: 5 year unbiased review / Echo cs-590 - 5 year review: my echo CS:590 is still going strong. I have been clearing fence line on our property, and bucking the larger logs for firewood. Currently clearing large honey locust trees which are the devil. I broke the chain tensioner on the saw, and ordered a replacement online (easy fix). The CS-590 always starts for me on the 3rd pull. I place the saw choke on, pull once or twice till I hear the saw hit (audible noise that the saw fires in the combustion chamber), turn choke off, pull again, and saw fires up. I normally don’t use the decompression button. Also, I always use ethanol free gas and drain the saw when storing for several months. I read another reviewer who had issues with the echo warranty due to purchasing this saw off desertcart; I never had to use the warranty, but if that is true, I would not recommend buying this saw off desertcart. While up in the brush I accidentally ran the saw over with my fourwheeler and didn’t manage to damage it. I take care of my saw, but I also work the ever living crap out of it! Again, I love this SAW. I’ll post some more picks this week of work I’ve been doing with the saw. 2 year review; Best bang for your buck in my opinion, I have had this saw for almost 2 years now. I am not a professional logger by any means, however I have cut my fair share of trees, used all the big name saws. I have cut close to 20 chords of wood with this saw sense ownership. Using original oil filter, gas filter, air filter, spark plug, and have had absolutely no issues. Starts on 2nd or 3rd pull every time, and does not bog at all. I will purchase the tune up kit this year. I do use compressed air in order to blow the saw and air filter out after every use. Also, I use extreme care when filling fuel and oil reservoirs on the saw in order to prevent clogging filters. Translucent fuel tank, so you can see the fuel level with out taking cap off. I wish the bar oil reservoir also had a way to view the level, however I always check the bar oil every time I refill on fuel.( I had to list at least one thing that could be improved on the saw). Saw has little vibration and lots of power combined with the timberline chain shaperner, have not found anything this saw won’t chew through like butter. Egernomics are also great, saw feels good in my hands and weight is balanced out. Saw started right out the box on third pull without any carb adjustment (minor carb adjustment made after initial break in). I keep Oregon chains on the saw, 2 of which I rotate on a normal basis. Registered saw through the echo warranty website after purchase. The little things mean a lot, having a saw that’s correctly adjusted right out of the box and still going strong after two years is amazing. You can not go wrong with purchasing the cs-590 echo chainsaw. If any issues are encountered in the future, I will update the review. My next purchase will be the echo Cs-355T. Ive cut oak, hickory, elm, walnut, and sycamore with this saw.

Bar, 59.8cc - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61b5DwfgliL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can anyone recommend a high quality replacement chain for the cs-590 20inch?** A: I just bought the D70 also. The stock chain was a beast. I unfortunately hit barb wire in the Center core of a tree. I'll let you know how she goes. Based on my research Oregon is a must have and the D70 full pitch is the smoothest fastest cutting saw. 60cc CS590 can handle the full pitch AGRESSIVE chains **Q: will this saw run on ethanol blended gas?** A: I personally never use gas with ethanol in any of the small engines. Ethanol being an alcohol attracts water and the gas rottens much quicker that ethanol free gas especially if you do not use the small engine for extended periods of time. However 10% ethanol gas it will work fine, just make sure you add fuel stabilizer at all times. This is a great chain saw for sure, I highly recommend it. **Q: Would this run ok with an 18" bar?** A: Yes, if the bar's bolt pattern, oil hole and general shape are designed to work on the Echo CS-590 saw. Here is a link to Oregon's bar and chain selector http://tinyurl.com/OregonBarSelector Its results show that Oregon makes a number of 18 inch bars to fit the Echo CS-590 chainsaw. **Q: Quiero el carburador y el cloche** A: Hes asking for part #'s for a replacement carb and clutch ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 year unbiased review / Echo cs-590 *by B***N on November 6, 2017* 5 year review: my echo CS:590 is still going strong.

From time to time, I do a limited amount of select timber cutting and logging. I also have a large older radial sawmill on our farm to occasionally saw our own lumber and custom sawing for other nearby farms, neighbors, and woodworkers. Granted we don't cut wood everyday, nevertheless I have to have a dependable saw for all that. We have had a variety of low-end and professional chainsaws to come and go over the years, and I was thinking about buying a professional grade saw. But after shopping around, this saw is the by far the best bang I have ever picked up for the buck--it is a beast of a cutting machine for the cost. After seeing that I could buy 2 of these saws for the price of 1 professional grade saw, I decided why not just try it. I took it out of the box, assembled it, filled it up, started it per the directions, and immediately sunk it in a 30" very rough oak log I had sat aside to block up for firewood. It's speed and torque were crazy and extremely impressive! I am excited to see what's it like once I get it broken in well. I give it 3 stars on durability as I don't think the cheap bar cover and plastic handle will withstand much of the normal wear and tear a saw receives on our place--but I might be surprised. ## Frequently Bought Together - Chain Saw, Gas, 20 in.
