Description
The ECHO CS‑362TES top-handle chainsaw is a lightweight (3.6 kg) professional saw with a 35.8 cm³ engine, ES‑Start®, G‑Force pre-cleaner, and ergonomic design—ideal for climbing arborists.
ECHO CS‑362TES Top‑Handle Petrol Chainsaw
The ECHO CS‑362TES is a lightweight, high-performance top-handle chainsaw designed for professional arborists and climb work. With its tapered ergonomic handle and robust 35.8 cm³ engine, it delivers powerful cutting capability in wet or dry canopies.
Effortless Power and Featherweight Design
Powered by a 35.8 cm³ ECHO engine, this saw produces 1.50 kW (≈ 2.04 hp) of reliable output. Weighing only 3.6 kg (dry, without bar/chain), it offers exceptional ease of handling even on extended climbs in confined spaces.
Ergonomic Balance for Climbing Professionals
The tapered handle is angled at 18° for improved grip and control, and the adjustable palm rest accommodates two hand sizes to reduce operator fatigue. A swing-out belt hook allows safely attaching the chainsaw to a harness while ascending or working overhead.
Fast-Start & Low Maintenance Features
Engine starts with minimal effort thanks to ECHO’s ES‑Start® system and automatic fast-idle choke. Maintenance is simplified with side-mounted tool-free chain tensioning and a flat, glove-accessible air filter cover.
Cleaner Running and Comfortable Use
The G‑Force™ pre-cleaner expels large particles before they reach the main filter, reducing servicing intervals. Vibration is kept low at approximately 3.8 m/s² (front) and 4.2 m/s² (rear), providing smoother operation during long shifts.
Built for Durability and Safety
This saw features a dual-post inertia chain brake for fast and reliable shutdown. It also includes a retained bar nut to avoid loss of components at height and a chrome-plated cylinder for increased durability.
