ECHO’s CS-280TES Reaches New Heights

ECHO’s CS-280TES top handle chainsaw is built for professionals. It has been ergonomically designed to provide operators with control and manoeuvrability whilst maintaining a high degree of comfort – even when used in a difficult working environment.

Unlike other saws on the market, the CS-280TES features a unique ‘wrap-around’ handle which is sloped back towards the operator’s body. This design provides the operator with a higher-degree of control.

The weight of the saw has not been compromised to accommodate this new feature. It has near-perfect weight distribution which provides excellent balance and it is light enough to be used through-out the day without causing excessive fatigue for the operator.

It has a new stage-2 emission compliant 26.9cc engine. With an output of 1.04kW the CS-280TES is 20% more powerful than its predecessor (CS-260TES).

The chainsaw’s air filter is positioned away from dirt and debris. This provides better filtration and ultimately improves engine performance. Access to the filter is easy and tool-free, even when the operator is wearing gloves.

All ECHO power tools come with a two year warranty for professional use (registration of ECHO products and servicing are necessary to validate the warranty).

The ECHO CS-280TES top handle chainsaw is £340.83 (ex- VAT) and is available for trained operators only.
