96042012600, 85-50 specifications

The Poulan 96042012600, often referred to as the 85-50, is a powerful and versatile chainsaw designed to meet the needs of both professionals and avid DIYers. Renowned for its performance and reliability, the 85-50 is suitable for a wide range of cutting tasks, including tree felling, pruning, and firewood preparation.

One of the standout features of the Poulan 85-50 is its robust engine. Powered by a 50cc two-stroke engine, it delivers impressive cutting power while maintaining a relatively lightweight design. This balance between power and weight translates into ease of use, allowing users to operate the chainsaw for extended periods without excessive fatigue. The engine is engineered for efficient fuel usage, contributing to reduced emissions and making it an environmentally friendly choice.

The chainsaw features a 20-inch bar and chain, providing a significant cutting capacity ideal for tackling both small and large trees. The longer bar allows for deeper cuts, making it easier to handle more substantial timber. Additionally, the chain is designed for high performance, ensuring smooth and efficient cuts.

Another key technology in the Poulan 85-50 is its automatic oiler system, which delivers a consistent flow of chain oil to keep the bar and chain lubricated during operation. This feature not only enhances the cutting efficiency but also prolongs the lifespan of the chainsaw by reducing wear and tear on the chain and bar.

Safety is a priority with the Poulan 85-50, which is equipped with a chain brake that can instantly stop the chain in the event of kickback. The design also includes a throttle lock, preventing accidental acceleration and ensuring safe operation. Its anti-vibration technology further reduces operator fatigue, allowing for more control and precision while cutting.

Ergonomics play a significant role in the design of the Poulan 96042012600. The handle is designed to provide a comfortable grip, allowing for better maneuverability, whether you're cutting at ground level or overhead. Additionally, the chainsaw features an easily accessible air filter, simplifying maintenance and ensuring the machine operates at peak efficiency.

In conclusion, the Poulan 96042012600, 85-50, stands out for its combination of power, efficiency, and safety features. With its lightweight design, advanced technology, and ergonomic considerations, it is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a reliable chainsaw for various cutting tasks, making it a valuable tool for both residential and professional use.
