To start the Poulan Pro PE3500 Trimmer, ensure the trimmer is on a flat surface. Set the choke lever to the start position, press the primer bulb 6 times, and hold the throttle trigger while pulling the starter rope briskly. Once the engine fires, move the choke to the run position.
Use a clean, fresh unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Mix it with a high-quality 2-cycle oil at a ratio of 40:1 for optimal performance.
First, ensure the trimmer is turned off and disconnected from the power source. Remove the spool cover, take out the old line, and wind the new line around the spool in the direction indicated. Reattach the spool cover securely.
A trimmer may stall due to clogged air filters, dirty spark plugs, or improper fuel mixture. Check and clean the air filter, inspect the spark plug and replace if necessary, and ensure the fuel mix is correct.
The air filter should be checked before each use and cleaned every 5 hours of operation. Replace it if it is damaged or excessively dirty.
Regular maintenance includes checking and cleaning the air filter, inspecting the spark plug, lubricating the flexible shaft, and ensuring the trimmer head is free of debris. Perform these checks every 10 hours of operation.
If the trimmer won't start, check the fuel level and quality, inspect the spark plug for wear, ensure the air filter is clean, and verify that the choke and throttle are in the correct positions.
Excessive vibration can be caused by an unbalanced trimmer head or loose parts. Check the trimmer head for damage and ensure all screws and bolts are tightened securely.
Yes, the Poulan Pro PE3500 Trimmer can be used for edging by tilting the trimmer head vertically along the edge you wish to trim. Make sure to maintain control and use proper protective gear.
Before storing, drain the fuel tank, clean the trimmer thoroughly, and inspect for any damage. Store it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
