TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE

CAUTION: It is important to prevent gum de- posits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or fuel tank during storage. Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to fuel mixture separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the engine.

PP4620AVHD specifications

The Poulan PP4620AVHD is a robust chainsaw engineered for homeowners and occasional users seeking a blend of performance, efficiency, and ease of use. This model is particularly well-suited for tackling medium to heavy-duty cutting tasks, such as tree trimming, firewood cutting, and storm cleanup.

One of the standout features of the PP4620AVHD is its powerful 46cc, 2-cycle engine. This engine delivers a strong performance and ensures efficient cutting through a variety of materials. With a top speed of approximately 9,000 RPM, users can expect swift cuts, making short work of logs and branches.

The ease of starting is a crucial aspect of the PP4620AVHD. It incorporates an advanced starting system with a spring-assist mechanism, reducing the effort needed to start the chainsaw. This feature is particularly appreciated during cold starts, allowing the user to spend less time struggling and more time cutting.

The chainsaw is equipped with an 18-inch bar and chain which strikes a balance between maneuverability and cutting capacity. This size is ideal for tackling larger logs while still being manageable for less experienced users. The chain is designed for quick and easy adjustments, ensuring that the user can maintain optimal tension without the need for additional tools.

Safety is a priority in any power tool, and the PP4620AVHD includes multiple safety features. It has a front hand guard to protect the user's hands from flying debris, and a chain brake that engages automatically during kickback situations. These features help ensure a safer cutting experience.

An additional characteristic of the PP4620AVHD is its AV technology (Anti-Vibration). This reduces vibrations felt by the user, which is crucial for extended use, minimizing fatigue and promoting comfort during operation.

For maintenance, the chainsaw has an easy-access air filter and fuel cap, allowing for straightforward cleaning and refueling. Regular maintenance is vital to prolong the life of any chainsaw, and Poulan's design supports user-friendliness in this regard.

The Poulan PP4620AVHD stands out as a capable and versatile chainsaw, perfect for those who need reliable performance without the complexity of professional-grade equipment. It combines power, safety, and comfort, making it a smart choice for both novice and seasoned users looking for an effective cutting tool.
