As a long-time user of the Husqvarna K760 Power Cutter, I was interested in seeing how the ECHO CSG-7410 Cut-Off Saw compared.
In this video, put it through its paces and share what I do and don’t like about it.
So, my takeaways from the ECHO CSG-7410 after using it on a commercial project with a bunch of asphalt?
Pros:
Compact and lightweight, which I like
The water system for wet cutting is cool
The big arbor bolt is good for easily swapping blades out
The killswitch works perfectly
A 4-stage air cleaner on the filter
The sight feature is cool
The shield release is easy to use (when you pull it the right way!)
Cons:
The choke feels kinda flimsy
While the sight feature is cool, it’s not fixed, so it will wiggle around in use
The shield isn’t loose all the time, so it can be hard to adapt to different cutting needs
The fuel tank seems a bit small for it, and leads to more refueling
I wish it had a place to store your repair tools on it, like the Husqvarna does
The chassis is a little shorter than I’m used to, but that’s just me
Overall, the ECHO CSG-7410 cut-off saw is a good saw, without jumping out the box as being great. For their first attempt at this kind of product, though, ECHO have done a pretty good job.
