Description
Overview:
This genuine Husqvarna throttle catch is a small but vital control component for professional chainsaws, engineered to keep the throttle position secure and predictable during use. Built to Husqvarna's OEM specification (part no. 501 81 75-02), it integrates cleanly within the throttle mechanism to support smooth acceleration and reliable return to idle. Precision-moulded and made for durability, it resists wear from vibration and repeated trigger action. Ideal for keeping older pro saws working at their best, it is purpose-made for Husqvarna chainsaws such as the 281 and 288XP. Whether you are replacing a worn catch or restoring a machine to factory function, this part helps maintain safe, consistent throttle control under both light trimming and demanding felling tasks.

Typical Applications:
Used during maintenance or repair of the throttle mechanism on Husqvarna pro-grade chainsaws. Ideal when the throttle does not hold correctly, the trigger feels loose, or the saw surges or hesitates. Common in workshop services, on-site repairs, and rebuilds to restore consistent throttle response, safer handling, and reliable starting and cutting performance.
