Description
Overview:
The Chain Sprocket Cover is a genuine Stihl replacement part for selected professional chainsaws, including the MS261 and MS261C. Built from tough, impact‐resistant polymer with robust mounting points, it shields the sprocket and clutch area from chips, grit, and accidental knocks to help keep the drive system running smoothly. A correct, tight‐fitting cover helps maintain reliable bar clamping and consistent chain operation, supporting performance in demanding cutting tasks.
