FT825 specifications

The Poulan FT825 is a robust and reliable tiller designed for homeowners and gardening enthusiasts who require a powerful tool for soil preparation. With a focus on durability and ease of use, the FT825 is engineered to make tilling tasks simpler and more efficient.

One of the main features of the Poulan FT825 is its 208cc four-stroke engine. This powerful engine delivers ample torque and performance, allowing for efficient tilling in various soil types. The four-stroke design ensures that the engine runs smoothly while maintaining lower emissions, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

The tiller features a durable steel frame that provides stability and support during operation. The frame is designed to withstand the rigors of heavy use, ensuring longevity and reliability over the years. Additionally, the FT825 comes with adjustable tilling width and depth settings, allowing users to customize their tilling experience based on specific gardening needs. The tilling width can be adjusted from 11 inches to 22 inches, making it versatile for different tasks.

Equipped with a set of rugged, spiral-tined tines, the FT825 can penetrate hard soil effortlessly, breaking up compacted earth for easier planting. These heavy-duty tines are designed to withstand tough conditions while providing exceptional soil mixing capabilities.

The Poulan FT825 also features ergonomic handles that are adjustable for user comfort. This design minimizes strain while tilling, enabling longer operation without discomfort. The integrated anti-vibration system further enhances user comfort by reducing the vibrations transmitted to the operator's hands.

Another notable technology is the easy-start system, which ensures that the engine starts with minimal effort. This is particularly beneficial for novice users who may struggle with traditional pull-start mechanisms.

For transport and storage, the FT825 is designed with foldable handlebars, which reduces its footprint and makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces. This feature also simplifies the storage process, ensuring that the tiller can be conveniently stored when not in use.

In summary, the Poulan FT825 is a feature-rich tiller that combines power, durability, and user-friendly designs. With its robust engine, adjustable settings, and thoughtful technologies, it is an ideal choice for anyone looking to cultivate their garden effectively.
