To start the Poulan Pro ES350WT Chainsaw, ensure the chain brake is engaged, set the choke to full, pull the starter handle until the engine fires, then set the choke to half and pull again until the engine starts.
To maintain proper chain tension, loosen the bar nuts slightly, adjust the tensioning screw until the chain fits snugly against the bar without sagging, then retighten the bar nuts.
Clean the air filter after every 5 hours of use, or more frequently if operating in dusty conditions. Remove the filter, wash it in soapy water, rinse, and allow to dry completely before reinstalling.
Use a gasoline and two-stroke oil mix at a ratio of 40:1. Ensure the gasoline is unleaded and has an octane rating of 89 or higher. Always use fresh fuel.
Stalling may be caused by a clogged air filter, incorrect fuel mixture, or a dirty carburetor. Clean or replace the air filter, ensure the fuel mixture is correct, and clean the carburetor if necessary.
Secure the chainsaw, engage the chain brake, and use a round file with the correct diameter. File each cutter tooth at a consistent angle and depth, then file the depth gauges with a flat file.
If the chain is not cutting properly, check for dull cutters, incorrect tension, or a clogged bar groove. Sharpen the chain, adjust tension, and clean the bar groove to ensure proper cutting performance.
Check fuel level, inspect spark plug for fouling, ensure choke and throttle settings are correct, and examine the fuel filter for clogs. Replace or clean components as needed.
Use high-quality bar and chain oil to ensure optimal lubrication. In cold conditions, use a thinner oil to maintain flow, while in warmer conditions, opt for a thicker oil.
Ensure the air filter is clean, maintain proper chain tension, use the correct fuel mixture, and check for adequate oiling of the chain and bar to prevent overheating.
