The Husqvarna 506255802 Starter Cover is a genuine OEM component designed for the K1270R, K1250, and K1260 power cutters. As a factory-original part, it meets Husqvarna's exact specifications for fit, form, and function — ensuring the recoil starter assembly is properly enclosed and protected. This cover is the correct replacement for K1270R, K1250, and K1260 operators looking to restore their machine to full working condition. DHS Equipment supplies this part to help keep your equipment running.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Husqvarna's original specifications, this cover matches the precise dimensions and material grade of the part it replaces, ensuring a correct housing fit around the recoil starter mechanism.
- Direct-Replacement Fit — Designed to mount directly in place of the original starter cover with no modification, aligning correctly with all existing fastener points and surrounding components.
- Confirmed Fitment for K-Series Power Cutters — Compatible with K1270R, K1250, and K1260 power cutters. Cross-reference 506255802 against your parts diagram to confirm fitment for your specific unit.
- Starter System Protection — Shields the recoil starter components from dust, debris, and impact exposure common on active cutting sites, helping the starter mechanism function correctly over time.
- Restored Machine Appearance and Integrity — A cracked or missing starter cover leaves internal components exposed and can affect how the recoil assembly seats and operates; replacing it restores the structural integrity of the starter housing.
The starter cover encloses the recoil starter assembly on a power cutter, protecting the pull-cord mechanism, starter spring, and related components from external damage and debris ingestion. Without a properly fitted cover, the starter internals are vulnerable to impact and contamination, which can lead to recoil mechanism failure or difficult starting. Replacing a damaged or broken cover with the correct OEM part restores the protective housing and ensures the starter system operates as intended.
