One of the main features of the Poulan 180241 is its powerful 18-inch bar and chain, which provide enough length to tackle medium-sized trees and larger branches with precision.

This engine is specifically designed to provide high RPMs, enabling users to make quick work of their cutting tasks.

The Poulan 180241 incorporates advanced technology aimed at enhancing user experience and safety.
