The Husqvarna 596874401 Parking Brake is a genuine OEM component designed for the FS520, FS524, and FS513 floor saws. Sourced directly from Husqvarna, this part meets the exact specifications of the original, ensuring proper engagement and hold on the machines it was built for. It is a direct replacement for the factory-installed unit, fitting into the existing brake assembly without alteration. DHS Equipment supplies this part to help keep your floor saw performing as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Brake Specification — manufactured to Husqvarna's exact engagement force and material standards, ensuring consistent holding performance under load.
- Direct Assembly Fit — engineered to mount into the original brake assembly location on FS520, FS524, and FS513 floor saws, matching the OEM interface exactly.
- Verified Floor Saw Compatibility — confirmed fitment across the FS520, FS524, and FS513 floor saw models; cross-reference 596874401 against your parts diagram before ordering.
- Restored Stationary Hold — a properly functioning parking brake keeps the saw securely in place on grade when the operator steps away, preventing unintended movement on sloped or uneven concrete surfaces.
- Operational Safety Function — the parking brake is a critical control component; using a genuine OEM replacement ensures the braking mechanism meets the machine's original safety design intent.
The parking brake on a walk-behind floor saw holds the machine stationary when it is not in active use, preventing it from rolling or shifting on sloped or irregular surfaces. It engages mechanically to lock the drive system, giving the operator control over the machine between cuts and during setup. When the parking brake wears, sticks, or fails to hold, the saw can move unexpectedly, creating a safety hazard and interrupting workflow — making prompt replacement with a correctly specified part essential.
