How do I sharpen cutting blades on poulan pro 22" hedge trimmer

SOURCE: i got no spark --

Hi

Remove plug and ground and see if you have spark at electrode.Sometimes it will not fire under compression.Check that kill switch is not shorted, just remove the wire going to ground and try again.If that is not the case then check for bad coil.

Please accept the solution if it's helpful. Do get back to us for any further query.

Thanks for contacting fixya.com

Check the air filter isn't dirty.
If the machine runs ok on high speed but cuts out while idling, the idle speed may be too low. There is usually an adustment screw for increasing the speed.
If the fuel line is a flexible type which moves around inside the tank, check it is able to move freely because if you are cutting at awkward angles, the end of the line can end up above the surface of the fuel, **** in air and airlock the line. You can eliminate this as the problem by fully filling the tank.
Check whether there is a one way check valve on the tank. This vents air into the tank as the fuel leaves for the carburettor. Sometimes particles of dirt can get stuck in this.
