Service & Maintenance Question posted August 25, 2017 by Joan HawkinsHow do I remove the cover from my Poulan Pro PPB40PS 40V Lithium Ion Battery operated 8" pole saw to get to the bar and chain?
I have read and searched everywhere in the book that comes with the saw as well as on the internet with no results found.
In order to adjust the chain tension and clean it, I need to be able to remove the cover. The only way I see to remove it is by removing all the screws. I am hoping there is an easier and quicker way to accomplish this task as it seems it needs to be done quite often for cleaning, per instruction manual.
Can anyone please help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help!!!- General Product Question last edited August 25, 2017 by Joan HawkinsQuestion:How to I remove the cover.....
I just purchased my first Poulan Pole Saw, model PPB40PS, that operates off a 40V lithium ion battery.
I am reading the instruction manual and it is not very clear on some things. I have searched everywhere trying to figure out how to remove the "COVER" over the bar and chain so I can learn how to adjust the tension of the chain when needed and to also clean as needed, per instructions.
Do I need to remove all the screws off the cover to get it off or is there another quicker and easier way to remove the cover?
I sure hope I didn't buy a tool that is going to be more of a pain in my side than helpful ! - General Product Question posted August 8, 2017 by Ryan ScottQuestion:I just bought a 562 XP auto tune with a 28" bar (std Husqvarna bar and chain from dealer) It's first job was to cut rounds on a 28" diameter Douglas Fir. It took every bit of the 28" bar. When the dogs caught and bit in the chain would bog down and stop. I had to lift and relieve it for it to go again. Is a 28" bar just too much for this saw? Or is this a tuning issue? First time using, first tank of gas... filed with Husqvarna pre mixed high octane fuel. If I need to upgrade to a 576 to run a 28" bar that will really work when needed I will. Need real world advice.
Thank You!
Ryan - General Product Question posted July 26, 2017 by david bootQuestion:Gentlemen,
I have been using your pole saw, PPB40PS, and am very pleased with the cutting performance and battery capacity. I had difficulty with making the under cuts. The saw kept pushing me out of the cut and I had to keep repeating the cut. I have added a modification that stops that problem and also enables to cut off smaller limbs on the bottom of larger limbs.
I have added a three inch long piece of aluminum bar stock to the nose of the bar. The bar stock projects beyond the chain one and one half inches and is angled slightly outward. This modification has really enhanced the performance.
Long ago and near by, I used a Homelite saw with a three inch finger on the bottom of the bar that was used brushing out small stuff.
I assume your chain is an Oregon 91?
I store the pole saw with the bar horizontal and the oil reservoir on the bottom, no oil leaks.
I have been using your Wild Thing, chain saw for over fifteen years. The saw lasts about five years that represents thirty cords of wood.
Thanks,

I was using the chainsaw to cut a big branch that had fallen in my back yard, one of the fuel lines had rotted through and was leaking so I replaced it, I pulled out the carburetor because the line went into the fuel tank. When I replaced the fuel line and put the carburetor back in I cant get the chainsaw started. I am not sure if the fuel lines are hooked up incorrectly or the carburetor needs rebuilt or what. I have a spark. Any help is appreciated.
- Warranty Question posted March 20, 2016 by Michael StearneyQuestion:Like many others, I am having trouble registering a new product--Husky chainsaw 445. No matter what I type in the product box, the search function doesn't find it, and I can't go forward with the product registration without completing that box. FIX THIS! I purchased Husky fuel mix expressly to extend my warranty from 2 to 4 years, and a condition of the extended warranty is product registration....

- Service & Maintenance Question last edited February 10, 2012 by Steve SirotaMy 2003 Poulan Pro 260 18" 42cc won't idle. It will run wide open but when I let go of the throttle it shuts down. Need to use the chock lever to get it running. I recently replaced the spark plug, cleaned the air filter, tried 2 different cans of gas thinking it was a fuel issue. The fuel lines look good as does the priming bulb. It was running fine for a while that morning, then started acting up. Not sure what to do, any recomendations would be appreciate. Thanks
