Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl chain catcher (OEM No. 1147 656 7700) is a safety component for the MS 500i series chainsaws, including the MS 500i and MS 500i-W. The catcher sits beside the guide bar and sprocket area to intercept a thrown or derailed chain, helping to protect the user and the saw's crankcase. Built from durable, impact‐resistant material to cope with vibration, oil, chips, and regular use, it restores factory performance when the original catcher is worn or damaged. As a direct-fit replacement, it keeps clearance and chain line correct, supporting reliable cutting and safe operation. Ideal for routine maintenance or repair, it helps ensure your saw remains safe and ready for demanding cutting tasks.
