ECHO CS-2511TES Ultra-Light Top Handle Chainsaw – 10" Bar

Experience the absolute pinnacle of lightweight climbing technology with the ECHO CS-2511TES 10-Inch Top Handle Chainsaw. Widely revered by industry professionals as having one of the best power-to-weight ratios on the global market, this ultra-compact petrol arborist saw is purpose-built for tree surgeons, precision carvers, and foresters. Weighing a truly astonishing 2.3 kg (dry weight), it holds the title as the lightest chainsaw in the entire ECHO range. This near-weightless design drastically reduces operator fatigue, allowing for extended use, precise control, and extreme maneuverability high in the canopy.

Do not let its micro-sized chassis fool you; the CS-2511TES houses a highly aggressive 25.0cc commercial-grade engine. It delivers an impressive 1.11 kW of output, ensuring blazing fast, impeccably clean cuts during delicate pruning, climbing, and detailed woodwork. Designed with the professional's daily workflow in mind, it is fully equipped with ECHO’s patented ES-Start system for effortless one-pull ignition in the air, an inertia chain brake, and a highly accessible side chain tensioner. Supplied with a standard 10-inch (25cm) guide bar, this ultra-lightweight pruning chainsaw is the definitive tool for professionals who demand extreme power without the burden of weight.

Just how light is 2.3 kg for a chainsaw?

It is incredibly light. At 2.3 kg (dry weight), the CS-2511TES is the lightest petrol chainsaw in ECHO's entire global lineup. It is so light that arborists often say they forget it is even hanging off their climbing harness.

Is a 25cc engine powerful enough for professional pruning?

Absolutely. Despite its micro size, the commercial-grade 25.0cc engine is highly aggressive, generating rapid chain speeds that slice cleanly through hardwood branches without bogging down.

What is the difference between this and the CS-280TES?

The CS-2511TES is the newer, ultra-lightweight flagship model. It is significantly lighter (2.3 kg vs 3.0 kg) and features a more compact, streamlined body design, making it the absolute premium choice for professional climbers.

Can I use an 8-inch bar on this chainsaw?

Yes. While it comes standard with a 10-inch (25cm) guide bar, it is fully compatible with a tiny 8-inch (20cm) bar, which is highly sought after by professional wood carvers for extreme detailing.

What is the ES-Start system?

Because arborists must start the saw while hanging in a tree, the ES-Start system uses an internal spring to absorb the pulling force. This makes the starter cord incredibly smooth and easy to pull, guaranteeing effortless ignition.

Is this saw suitable for cutting firewood on the ground?

No. Top handle saws are highly specialized, ultra-compact tools designed strictly for off-ground climbing and pruning. For bucking firewood on the ground, a standard 'rear handle' saw provides the correct ergonomics and safety.

What fuel ratio does the CS-2511TES require?

It requires a strict 50:1 mixture of fresh, premium unleaded petrol (minimum 89 octane, non-ethanol) and high-quality 2-stroke engine oil.

Does it have a safety chain brake?

Yes, despite its tiny size, it is fully equipped with a heavy-duty inertia-activated chain brake that instantly stops the chain in the event of a kickback, ensuring maximum operator safety.

Where is the chain tensioner located?

It features a highly accessible side-access chain tensioner on the clutch cover, allowing you to make fast, precise chain adjustments without battling awkward front-facing screws.

Is it manufactured in Japan?

Yes, this premium arborist saw is 100% manufactured in Japan, ensuring the highest standards of precision engineering and commercial-grade durability.

Does it have an automatic oiler?

Yes, it features a reliable, clutch-driven automatic chain oiler that perfectly lubricates the bar and chain while cutting, but stops pumping when the saw is idling to save oil.

Do you offer trade discounts for professional tree surgeons?

Yes, Freshway Supplies offers highly competitive volume pricing and trade accounts for professional arborists, tree care companies, and commercial wood carvers. Contact us to establish your trade account.
