The Husqvarna 576490401 Throttle Cable Assembly is a genuine OEM component designed for the K970 power cutter. As a direct OEM replacement, this assembly is built to Husqvarna's original specifications, ensuring the same fit and function as the part that left the factory. DHS Equipment supplies this part to help keep your K970 performing at full capacity. Cross-reference part number 576490401 against your parts diagram to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM Cable Tension and Travel Spec — manufactured to the original throttle travel length and tension rating, so throttle response on the K970 behaves exactly as designed.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — connects to the existing throttle trigger and carburetor anchor points on the K970 with no modification to the housing or end fittings.
- Fits K970 Power Cutters — purpose-built for the K970 series; verify fitment using part number 576490401 and your machine's parts diagram.
- Restored Throttle Control — a worn or frayed cable causes sluggish, inconsistent, or unresponsive throttle action; this assembly brings full, predictable engine response back to the operator's hand.
- Operator Safety Relevance — precise throttle control is critical on a handheld power cutter; a correctly functioning cable ensures the blade speed responds accurately to operator input, reducing the risk of unexpected surging or lag during a cut.
The throttle cable assembly transmits the mechanical input from the throttle trigger to the carburetor, controlling fuel delivery and engine speed. When the cable stretches, frays, or seizes inside its housing, the engine may fail to rev cleanly, stick at high RPM, or respond inconsistently — all conditions that compromise both cut quality and operator control. Replacing the assembly with a genuine OEM unit restores the precise, linear throttle response the K970 was engineered to deliver.
