    I'm really liking this echo chainsaw.

    I have a Echo CS 400 chainsaw and I understand your liking. All that was needed was elevation adjustment and the saw runs fine, minimal vibration and cuts well. :rocker:

    Screwdriver recommendations

    I own the latest Snap On & Matco screwdrivers. The Matco has the bet fit for Phillips screws. Snap on screwdrivers work well, but not as good at Matco. I have used Wilha before and was quite impressed with their fit, but their handles leave something to be desired. I have seen WERA screw...

    Pressure washer not pushing compressed water

    Ed, Thank you very much for the information. I own a similar Karcher pressure sprayer and every once in a while the sprayer will not pressurize water. As the other posting stated, I thought it was a bad pump. The owners manual does not have any preventive maintenance for this pump, just for...

    Kobalt Tools Change Manufacture.

    KOBALT tools were awesome when they were first introduced. The sockets looked very similar to Snap On sockets. The combo wrenches are very nice design, similar to the Bonney design.

    Dewalt vs IR air compressor

    The Dewalt compressor looks impressive. But it is a oil-less compressor that is prone to wear. Although folks swear by the product, I suspect that it will wear and have a short life. The IR compressor is also impressive, everything looks very durable and will provide years of service. I...

    mg725 question

    I had the same problem, the problem was resolved by pulling out the trigger after each use. However this should not be a issue that needs to be dealt with. Spoke to my Snap On dealer and he said the impact needed to sent out for repair (Las Vegas). The fix was having the impact rebuilt and...

    Hazet or SnapON?

    Snappy have the BLING. Folks wear large gold chains with diamonds for the BLING effect. You can make a necklace with Snappy tools and it will rival any jewelry. I have never seen Hazet tools, so I cannot attest to their products.
