Description
Overview:
This Filter Cover is a Genuine Stihl OEM component for professional chainsaws, designed to shield the air filter from chips, dust, and impact while maintaining a reliable seal around the intake. Made from tough, impact‐resistant polymer, it withstands demanding forestry and site conditions and helps keep abrasive debris out of the engine. By protecting the filter and preserving airflow, it supports stable idle, strong throttle response, and reduced engine wear. Suited to high‐output saws such as the Stihl MS880 and MS780, it installs using the saw's standard fixings with no modifications. It is an ideal replacement when the original cover is cracked, missing, or no longer sealing properly, restoring the chainsaw's protection and serviceability.
