SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibrations through prolonged use of gasoline powered hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of people prone to circulation disorders or ab- normal swelling. Prolonged use in cold weather has been linked to blood vessel dam- age in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms occur such as numbness, pain, loss of strength, change in skin color or texture, or loss of feeling in the fingers, hands, or joints, discontinue the use of this tool and seek medical attention. An anti vibration system does not guarantee the avoidance of these problems. Users who operate power tools on a continual and regular basis must monitor closely their physical condition and the condi- tion of this tool.

SPECIAL NOTICE: This unit is equipped with a temperature limiting muffler and spark arresting screen which meets the require- ments of California Codes 4442 and 4443. All U.S. forest land and the states of California, Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, Ore- gon, and Washington require by law that many internal combustion engines be equipped with a spark arresting screen. If you operate in a locale where such regulations ex- ist, you are legally responsible for maintaining the operating condition of these parts. Failure to do so is a violation of the law. For normal homeowner use, the muffler and spark arrest- ing screen will not require any service. After 50 hours of use, we recommend that your muffler be serviced or replaced by an autho- rized service dealer.

GHT 195, GHT 225 specifications

The Poulan GHT 225 and GHT 195 are versatile, high-performance gas-powered hedge trimmers designed for homeowners and professional landscapers alike. Known for their durability, efficiency, and ease of use, these models are perfect for various trimming tasks, from shaping hedges to maintaining the aesthetic appeal of gardens.

One of the standout features of the GHT 225 and GHT 195 is their robust engines. The GHT 225 is equipped with a powerful 22cc engine, while the GHT 195 boasts a slightly smaller yet efficient 19cc engine. Both engines facilitate a combination of power and fuel efficiency, ensuring longer run times without sacrificing performance. This balance allows users to tackle larger areas without frequent stops for refueling.

In terms of cutting capability, both the GHT 225 and GHT 195 offer dual-action blades that significantly reduce vibration during operation. This technology not only enhances user comfort but also provides a cleaner cut, making it easier to maintain precise shapes and lines. The blade length varies between the two models, with the GHT 225 featuring a longer blade for broader applications, while the GHT 195's blade is ideal for smaller, more detailed work.

Another characteristic worth noting is the lightweight design of both trimmers. Weighing in at only a few pounds, these hedge trimmers minimize user fatigue, enabling longer periods of use without compromising comfort or effectiveness. The ergonomic handle design allows for fluctuations in grip positions, catering to various cutting angles and providing added maneuverability in tight spaces.

Safety features are also a vital aspect of the Poulan GHT series. Both models come with a built-in safety switch that prevents accidental starts. Additionally, the protective blade guard shields users from debris during operation, promoting a safer trimming experience.

Maintenance is straightforward with the Poulan GHT lineup. The easy-access air filter and spark plug enable users to perform routine maintenance without the need for specialized tools. This user-friendly approach ensures that the trimmers remain in peak working condition for years to come.

In conclusion, the Poulan GHT 225 and GHT 195 hedge trimmers are excellent choices for anyone looking to enhance their landscaping capabilities. With powerful engines, efficient cutting technology, lightweight design, and added safety features, these models stand out in the market for their reliability and performance, making them an ideal addition to any gardening toolkit.
