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.

One of the standout features of the Poulan 85-50 is its robust engine. Powered by a 50cc two-stroke engine, it delivers impressive cutting power while maintaining a relatively lightweight design.

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. Additionally, the chainsaw features an easily accessible air filter, simplifying maintenance and ensuring the machine operates at peak efficiency.
