Description
Overview:
This Genuine Hand Guard for Husqvarna 562XP chainsaws is a factory-spec safety component made from tough, impact-resistant polymer. It shields the operator's leading hand from brush, chips, and accidental contact with the moving chain, and it works as the front lever for the saw's chain brake system when correctly installed. Engineered for an exact fit on Husqvarna 562XP and 562XPG models, it restores original function and alignment without modification. The moulded construction is designed to cope with knocks, vibration, oil and fuel exposure, and outdoor conditions. Supplied as the guard only, it reuses the saw's existing fixings where applicable. Genuine Husqvarna part, MPN 525 25 06-02 (also referenced as 525250602), for dependable compatibility and performance.
