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.

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.
