Description
Overview:
This filter cover is a replacement air filter housing cover for selected Stihl handheld machines made after 2001, including the BG45 and BG55. Built from durable polymer with a robust moulded form, it shields the air filter element from dust and debris while helping maintain correct airflow to the engine. The cover is designed for Stihl petrol blowers and shredder vacs, offering a secure fit to restore protection if your original cover is cracked, worn, or missing. Its later-type design suits post‐2001 assemblies on the listed models, making it a straightforward option during servicing. The bright, high‐visibility orange finish matches the machine bodywork and aids quick identification during maintenance and filter checks.
Key Features:
- Tough, impact‐resistant polymer construction for everyday site and garden use
- Protects the air filter from dust and debris to support engine performance
- Later‐type fitment for machines produced after 2001 on the specified models
- Direct replacement that reuses the machine's existing fixings

- Suitable for routine servicing, repair, or refurbishing of older units
Typical Applications:
