Description
Overview:
This Genuine Husqvarna choke control is a hard‐wearing lever assembly that operates the carburettor choke for reliable cold starting and smooth running on compatible saws. Built from durable, fuel‐resistant polymer with sturdy hardware, it provides positive engagement of the choke plate to enrich the air‐fuel mixture during start‐up, then allows fast return to normal operation. Designed for Husqvarna professional saw ranges, it is a direct fit on popular models such as the 268K and 272K, as well as several classic chainsaws in the 200‐series. Supplied under OEM No. 501 52 79-02, it maintains factory alignment with the carburettor and top cover, helping your machine start quickly, idle cleanly, and respond consistently in everyday use.
