Description
Overview:
This Switch Shaft is a genuine Stihl OEM part for the MS 261 and MS 261 C chainsaws. It is a small but vital control component made from durable, engineering-grade polymer designed to withstand vibration, heat, and everyday wear. The shaft links the external control to the internal switching mechanism, giving positive, accurate movement so your saw selects its operating positions reliably. If the original shaft is worn, cracked, or sticking, this replacement restores smooth control and dependable function. Built to Stihl factory tolerances, it fits correctly without modification and helps maintain the overall performance and safety of your machine. Suitable for both professional users and DIY owners who want to keep their saw operating as intended.
