Description
Overview:
This Short Circuit Wire is a genuine Stihl part designed to maintain the ignition stop/kill function on compatible hedge trimmers such as the Stihl HS75 and HS80. It is a black, insulated copper lead supplied to a precise length of 370 mm (14.5 inches) for an accurate fit and consistent performance. The wire links the stop switch to the ignition system so the engine can be safely shut down by grounding the circuit when required. Built for outdoor power tools, it withstands regular use and vibration typical of hedge trimming work. As an OEM component (MPN: 4226 440 1105), it supports reliable electrical continuity and helps prevent intermittent faults, keeping your machine starting, running, and stopping as intended.
