I love it! :thumbsup:

Here is an updated picture of all my Echo equipment....and in a month I will be adding an Echo edger! :thumbsup:

My Echo equipment:

• 2012 SRM-225 trimmer
• 2012 PB-255LN blower
• 2012 PE-225 edger
• late 1980's GT-2100 trimmer

Hello guys,

Sorry no pix yet. I just purchased the 2013 Echo 225PAS with trimmer and cultivator attachments about a month ago. I'm pretty happy overall with the performance I'm getting, though I think the cultivator is a bit overpriced. They do back them up with a hardy five year warranty.

The Echo PAS-225 is very nice and I'm glad you like it! Hopefully we can see some pictures once you take them! :smile:

Nice Echo equipment!! Welcome to the forum.

Hi, I was an Echo Tech for 12 years. Not now though. I own about 6 Echo products. Right now I'm trying to tackle this "small D" carb adjustment prob.

My two. SRM-2100 and SRM-2400

Nice Snapper! Still have the Grays and looking in great shape looks like. I need to get some pics of my stuff. I have 2 saws that are the original orange (B4 they went to gray). Even have 1 saw that was made for John Deere. All still run great. My pride and joy tho is my CS8000.

Agreed, love the old stuff. The 2100 I bought new in '98, the 2400 I just picked up a few months ago. I remember orange echo, pre-gray.

Dont look like that 2400 has an external check valve on the fuel line so it must have had the updated carb put on it at some time.

I'm not sure about it's history, it does appear to be the same zama carb like on the 2100...which I just replaced a couple months ago along with the fuel lines on both. The 2400 does run great so if the carb wasn't changed it's been well taken care of. I haven't look up specs but the 2400 feels lighter than the 2100 but has noticeably more power or torque or something.

Dont remeber for sure, but me thinks the 2100 was the solid shaft and 2400 and above has the flex shaft (more torque for the power).

Interesting, I'll have to look into that. If I'm not careful I'll become an echo freak also!

When did Echo start going grey? Because I have a GT-2100 trimmer from 1987 that is orange. Is that prior to the change to grey?

I believe they started going gray in the early to mid '90s.

Only thing orange on mine are the fuel caps

Hi,
My name is Marshall Haire. I have an older Weed Eater model 599 String Trimmer that I'm restoring. I don't have a picture but wanted to introduce myself and why I came to this forum.
Thanks again for being a resource to help me on any engine questions I may have.

Hello Folks!
I have an Echo SRM 1500 trimmer. It is well used perhaps even vintage at this point, but it has been the most dependable trimmer I have ever used.

PB-250 Power Blower

I'm CharlieH. I'm retired. I have been doing small repairs on my own lawn equipment and for my neighbors. I always found forums to be a good source of information when I was working as a machinist. I am new to small engine repair so I am easily stumped. The Echo PB413T is my neighbor's and I am stumped.

Howdy I'm new here as of today and already i like this forum, lots of brand topics to talk about I have tons of echo equipment some ive like and some i didn't but as a whole its a pretty good company

Hello,
New guy from Virginia.

I have the following
SRM-335
SRM-410u
PB-580t
and an older Gray shred and vac.

I have a echo srm-2100. Got it free as it wasnt running. Spark plug was loose. Other than a few primer bulb replacements, been an awesome trimmer.

Hello, Norm LFP (N Sea) WA. I hate gasoline engines of all types. I'd like to blame it on that my dad didn't have a lot of tools and certainly not any high quality Auto Mechanics type tools. So most repairs I tried were Micky Mouse like trying to remove a lawn mower flywheel with a hammer or hacksawing shock absorbers off a Chevelle because they were completely rusted and I had no clue how to remove them properly. But probably more due to my lack of patience and knowledge. All that has changed now due to the internet! ha ha........

Current Problems:
Shindaiwa T242 (6 years old?) Line trimmer. DOA because of bad ethenol. Need to learn exact steps to follow in order to not repeat mistakes on the Toro I am still working on!
Toro 22" Recycler 20374 (2017?) Elec. Start Pers. Pace Mower. Mostly runs but waiting for more grass or leaves then will test it after doing a 2nd valve lash adj. that Bert recommended.
Other Equipment.
Honda HRX217HYA bought used recently. Awesome so far!
Old (Maybe 20 years) Used Honda 21". Still starts 1-2 pulls and works very well but I need the roto stop since emptying bag 20-30 times and pulling cord is killing back as I get older.
Last Not Least: ECHO SRM225 Line Trimmer (1 Year) Grabbed it at H Depot last spring to shut the neighbor up on other side of fence ragging about "weed seeds". Works as good as the T242 Used to when it ran.

Hello all! I have a lot of different power equipment of several makes & types, I am also the family & friend "Repair Mechanic" everyone runs to when they have problems with THEIR equipment. Having said that, I am here today, looking for some manuals and/or sketches for the repair & maintenance of my son's ECHO SRM-225 String Trimmer. It has been spewing gasoline & stalling when he uses it. I put it on my bench & cleaned it up, and have found several problems with his fuel lines at the Tank Grommet where the lines pass thru from the tank to the carb.
