  Uneven cutting with your Poulan Pro Lawn Mower can be caused by several factors. The blade may be worn, bent, or loose, in which case you should replace it. The mower deck might not be level, so level the mower deck. There could be a buildup of grass, leaves, and trash under the mower; clean the underside of the mower housing. Also, clogged mower deck vent from build-up of grass, leaves, and trash around mandrel can cause this problem, so clean around mandrels to open vent holes.

  Tracey BerrySep 6, 2025
  If your Poulan Pro Lawn and Garden Equipment won't start, there are several possible causes. First, make sure the fuel tank is full. If that's not the issue, the spark plug might be bad and need replacement. A dirty air filter could also be the culprit, so try cleaning or replacing it. Water in the fuel can also prevent starting; in that case, empty the fuel tank and carburetor, refill with fresh gasoline, and replace the fuel filter. Check all wiring for looseness or damage. If none of these steps work, the engine valves may be out of adjustment, and you should contact a qualified service center.
