Echo launched its new ProXtreme Series 2620, which includes a standard trimmer (SRM-2620), a high-torque trimmer (SRM-2620T), a brush cutter (SRM-2620U) and an edger (PE-2620).

The ProXtreme Series 2620 power head is made with military-grade magnesium and features a 25.4-cc, professional-grade, two-stroke engine that delivers 1.35 horsepower.

Better air filtration is provided by using a two-stage air filtration system, the company said. An insulator plate and flexible bellow-style fuel transfer system reduces heat. That system—combined with a remote fuel tank air vent versus an integrated fuel cap vent—prevents clogging and reduces restart issues, the company said.

The SRM-2620 and SRM-2620T trimmers both feature a solid shaft for lighter weight and quick acceleration. The SRM-2620 uses a 1.62:1 gear reduction, while the SRM-2620T features a 2:1 gear reduction. The units also cut 17-inch swaths and use the Speed-Feed 400 head.

The SRM-2620U brush cutter also features a solid shaft and uses a 1.62:1 gear reduction. The toolless, adjustable U handle has an integrated throttle lever and can fold parallel for storing and transport. It comes with an additional shield for blade use and shoulder harness. The blade is an optional purchase.

The PE-2620 edger uses a flex cable drive, which enables a curved shaft design for better sight lines and more ergonomic tool positioning when in use, Echo said.

The ProXtreme Series 2620 products carry the standard five-year consumer/two-year commercial warranty.
