The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The product, in the report: Poulan Pro Gas backpack Leave Blower PPBP30/30cc

    While in use of a gas powered backpack blower the blower and engine separated from backpack harness and struck me on the back of the leg causing a superficial wound. It appears the four rubber isolator had separated from their mount. The unit is a Poulan Pro model BL30711971. S/N101188200747. I have filed a safety concern with the manufacturer on 7/23/2014 with no response.
