Description
Overview:
This Chain Brake Hand Guard is a genuine Husqvarna safety component for the 435 and 435E chainsaws. It is the forward hand guard that you push to activate the chain brake, helping stop the chain during kickback and keeping the chain locked during safe starting. Moulded from impact‐resistant orange polymer for everyday site use, it provides a snug OEM fit and smooth operation as part of the existing brake mechanism on the saw. Supplied to Husqvarna specification under OEM No. 546 83 66-01, it directly replaces the earlier 544 25 15-01. Use it to replace cracked, worn, or missing guards and to restore reliable brake engagement on compatible Husqvarna homeowner and mid‐range saws without altering the original setup.
