Description
Overview:
This is a genuine Makita air filter for the Dcs230t top‐handle chainsaw, supplied as an exact replacement for OEM No. 443118-8. It uses fine‐grade filter media supported by a rigid plastic frame to trap dust, sawdust and debris before they reach the engine. By maintaining clean intake air and stable airflow, it helps protect the cylinder and piston from premature wear, supports correct carburation, and keeps the saw running smoothly. The element is shaped to fit the original air box without modification and is suitable for routine servicing on petrol chainsaws used in pruning, cutting and general maintenance. Built to Makita specifications, it offers reliable sealing and durability for regular use in demanding, dusty conditions.
