Description
Overview:
The Detent Lever is a genuine Stihl replacement part for the BGA60 and BGA200 cordless leaf blowers. It is a small, moulded component made from durable engineering-grade plastic in a hard-wearing black finish. In use, the lever engages with matching notches to create positive "click" positions, helping to hold a selected setting and maintain stable control during operation. On these blowers it typically serves as the locking/indexing piece for an adjustable control or tube section, supporting smooth adjustment and secure positioning under vibration. Built to Stihl's specification, it restores the original feel and function when the factory lever is worn, cracked, or lost. Suitable for routine maintenance and straightforward replacement to keep your blower working reliably day to day.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit and correct operation on compatible models
- Tough moulded polymer resists wear, knocks, and repeated adjustments
- Helps lock and index settings, maintaining stable operation under vibration
- Restores positive engagement ("detent") for consistent user control
- Precise geometry for smooth movement and reliable latching
- Lightweight component that does not add bulk to the machine
- Designed specifically for BGA60 and BGA200 for easy identification and compatibility
- Typically a simple swap using basic hand tools; refer to the Stihl manual for procedure
- Suitable for preventative maintenance to avoid nuisance loosening or drift
- Supports long service life when paired with clean mating parts and correct assembly
Typical Applications:
Routine servicing and repair of Stihl cordless blowers used in gardens, parks, estates, facilities, and commercial grounds maintenance. Ideal when the existing lever no longer holds positions, adjustment feels loose, or settings slip during work such as clearing leaves, debris, grass clippings, and light litter from hard standings and lawns.
