Poulan PO500N22S 22-Inch Side Discharge Push Mower with 4.75 HP Briggs & Stratton Engine
Poulon problems,
I have this mower and it came with an insert beneath the side discharge vent. This plastic plate keeps the grass clippings or leaves from being discharged and chops them into tiny particles. I removed my plate or ‘plug’ as the grass kept causing the mower to shut off as it was very thick grass.
As to the complaint about the mower not starting after the first time please check to insure there is adequate fuel/oil in their respective tanks (and not oil in the gas tank and vise versa). Next, check to be sure the foam air filter isn’t blocked with dirt and grass. If it is, remove and wash it. Next, if all else fails, remove the spark plug and check for fouling. If the contacts are not clean and sharp, replace the plug. Plugs are inexpensive and not covered by warrenty. This should do the trick. The plug the manufacturer installed lasted me eight hours. Eight. The manual says to replace spark plugs after 100 hours. Don’t believe it. And the spark gap for this machine is .03
If you have done all of this and the mower still won’t start, go to http://www.briggsandstratton.com for a dealer near you and call ahead to make certain they do warrenty repairs and, if so, under what circumstances in case there is a hidden cost to you. There is a two year warrenty, you know. I enjoy using my mower to cut nearly an acre of grass and, while the mower and I got off to a bad beginning, we’re doing great now.

|Nice mower,
Mower comes fully assembled, add gas & oil, pump primer, pull rope x3, start pushing. There is no gas lever which concerned me until I used it, plenty of reserve power, the automatic governor keeps the engine at a proper rpm the entire time. Easy to use, washes up easily after use (let it cool first).

|good basic mower,
This is a good, very basic mower. It’s lightweight — easy to maneuver. It starts on first or second try. The con on this mower is that each wheel has to be adjusted individually.
