Poulan Pro PPB32SST Operator's Manual

To start the Poulan Pro PPB32SST Trimmer, ensure the trimmer is on a flat surface, switch it to the 'on' position, press the primer bulb 6 times, set the choke lever to the full choke position, pull the starter rope sharply until the engine attempts to run, then set choke to half choke and pull the rope again until it starts. Once started, move the choke to 'run'.
The Poulan Pro PPB32SST Trimmer requires a mixture of unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle oil at a 40:1 ratio. Use fresh fuel and mix it in a clean, approved container.
To replace the trimmer line on the Poulan Pro PPB32SST, remove the spool by pressing the tabs on the sides of the trimmer head. Cut two lengths of trimmer line, insert them into the holes on the spool, wind them in the direction of the arrow, and reattach the spool to the trimmer head.
If the trimmer is hard to start, check the fuel mixture to ensure it's correct and fresh, inspect the spark plug for wear or damage, and clean or replace it if necessary. Also, check the air filter for clogs and clean or replace it as needed.
If the trimmer line breaks frequently, ensure you are using the correct diameter line specified for the trimmer. Avoid hitting hard surfaces like rocks or concrete, and ensure the line is wound correctly on the spool.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the air filter, inspecting and replacing the spark plug annually, checking the fuel filter, lubricating the drive shaft, and ensuring all screws and fasteners are tight. Always use fresh, properly mixed fuel.
Before storing the trimmer for the winter, drain the fuel tank and run the engine to use up remaining fuel. Clean the trimmer thoroughly, inspect for any damage, and store it in a dry place. Consider lubricating all moving parts to prevent rust.
Adjusting the carburetor should be done carefully. Locate the adjustment screws on the carburetor. Start the trimmer and let it warm up, then turn the screws slowly to achieve smooth operation. Refer to the manual for specific guidance and settings.
Excessive vibration can be caused by a few issues such as a misaligned or damaged cutting attachment, loose parts, or an unbalanced trimmer head. Inspect and replace or repair any damaged components and ensure all parts are securely fastened.
Always wear protective gear such as safety goggles, gloves, and long clothing. Ensure the area is clear of debris and bystanders, and avoid operating the trimmer in wet conditions. Follow all safety instructions in the manual.
