Description
Overview:
This Starter Pulley is a genuine Husqvarna OEM component for the recoil start system on selected handheld machines, including the 525L and 525LK brushcutters. The pulley is a hard‐wearing polymer wheel that guides and stores the starter cord, allowing smooth cord payout and rewind while engaging the engine to start. Designed for reliable, repeatable performance, it restores proper function where the original pulley has worn, cracked, or seized. Built to Husqvarna's specifications, it provides an accurate fit in the starter housing and maintains correct cord tracking and tension. Suitable for a range of Husqvarna brushcutters, trimmers, pole saws and hedge trimmers in the 525 series (and selected 324/325/524 variants), it helps ensure quick, consistent starting in everyday professional and domestic use.
Key Features:
- Genuine Husqvarna OEM part for assured fit and compatibility
- Durable polymer construction for long service life under regular use
- Precisely moulded profile supports smooth cord winding and rewind
- Restores reliable pull-start operation and recoil return action
- Direct replacement for worn or broken pulleys; no modifications required

- Easy to fit with basic hand tools, helping minimise downtime
- Stable performance in typical outdoor conditions and routine maintenance cycles
Typical Applications:
Used to replace a damaged or slipping starter pulley that causes hard starting, cord snagging, or poor recoil on Husqvarna handheld equipment. Ideal for routine maintenance in landscaping, grounds care, garden upkeep, and site clearance where dependable cold and warm starts are needed throughout the day.
