Poulan Pro 17-inch 33cc 2-Cycle Gas Powered Curved Shaft Attachment Capable String Trimmer #PP033

Poulan Pro 17-inch 33cc 2-Cycle Gas Powered Curved Shaft Attachment Capable String Trimmer #PP033 Review


I bought this string trimmer with the hopes of using its 33cc motor with attachments in the future. Right now it is strictly a string trimmer. Out of the box, I realized this thing is beefy. It is heavy! Walk away right now if you are looking for a lightweight trimmer.

It does come with a small bottle of 2 cycle oil. Once I filled it with gas, the first start was slow to come. I discovered that the choking system is poorly designed (basically on/off). Starting is best handled by holding the throttle ever so slightly open. After about 45 minutes of use I burned through an entire tank of fuel.

The tap string feeder works pretty good with .080 string. I tried the .095 string and it works ok. I recommend .080 for the standard use and the .095 for along chain link fence.

Bottom-line it runs good, works great, it's heavy, but with the 33cc engine it should handle the attachments better than the average string trimmer.
