Description
Overview:
This Starter Cover is a genuine Stihl replacement housing for selected lightweight brushcutters and multi-tools, including the FS 40 and FS 56. It protects the recoil starter and flywheel area from impact, dust and debris, helping the engine start reliably and keeping cooling airflow unobstructed. Moulded from a durable, impact‐resistant polymer with the familiar Stihl orange finish, it is designed to withstand everyday use in gardens, landscaping and light commercial work. As an OEM part (MPN 4144 190 0400), it matches the original cover for fit and appearance, and aligns with existing mounting points so the recoil starter and other components sit correctly. Ideal for replacing cracked, warped or UV‐aged housings to restore the machine's integrity.
