Description
Overview:
This Intake Manifold (Earlier Type) is a genuine Makita replacement part for petrol cut-off saws, engineered for the EK7301 and EK8100 models. Made from a durable, fuel- and heat-resistant elastomer, it seals the joint between the carburettor and the cylinder to direct the air-fuel mixture correctly and prevent air leaks. A sound manifold is critical for reliable starting, stable idling and full power under load. This earlier-type version matches OEM No. 424708-6 and is intended for machines that specify this configuration in their parts list. It is a straightforward swap for a cracked, perished or leaking original component and helps keep your disc cutter running efficiently in demanding site conditions.
