178249 specifications

The Poulan 178249 is a robust and versatile chainsaw designed for both professional and residential use. Renowned for its reliability and efficiency, this model stands out in the competitive market of outdoor power tools. One of the main features of the Poulan 178249 is its powerful 18-inch bar and chain, which allows users to tackle a wide range of cutting tasks, from firewood preparation to tree trimming.

Equipped with a 42cc 2-cycle engine, the Poulan 178249 provides ample power while maintaining a manageable weight, making it easier to handle for extended periods. The lightweight design is coupled with an ergonomic handle that offers comfort and control, reducing strain on the user’s hands and arms during operation. This makes the chainsaw particularly suitable for both seasoned professionals and occasional users.

One of the standout technologies in the Poulan 178249 is its Easy Start system, which significantly reduces the effort needed to start the engine. This feature is especially beneficial for those who may struggle with traditional pull-start mechanisms, allowing for a smoother experience right from the beginning of use. Additionally, the chainsaw comes with an integrated air filtration system that prolongs the life of the engine by ensuring cleaner airflow, which helps maintain optimal performance over time.

Another characteristic that sets the Poulan 178249 apart is its built-in chain brake safety feature. This critical component halts chain movement in the event of kickback, providing an added layer of protection for users. The adjustable chain tensioning system also allows for quick and easy adjustments on the go, ensuring that the chain remains properly tightened for efficient cutting.

Moreover, the Poulan 178249 has a translucent fuel tank that enables users to easily monitor fuel levels, reducing the risk of running out of fuel mid-task. This user-friendly design, along with the chainsaw’s durable construction, makes it suitable for various cutting applications in different environments.
