If you are unsure or are not equipped with the necessary tools, you may want to take your unit to an Echo
Service Dealer for installation of this kit. To help you decide whether you want to DO-IT-YOURSELF or have an
Echo dealer install this kit, we have rated this procedure as a SKILL LEVEL 2, which means some mechanical
experience and basic knowledge in the use of hand tools is necessary.
The Echo I-Start system is a starter accessory that will make your Echo unit easier to start by reducing the
pulling force by 75%.
If after reading these instructions, you are not sure of your ability to safely complete the installation, Echo
recommends you return the unit to your Echo dealer for service.

nents.
