Important Notes

• Verify compatibility with your specific Homelite equipment model, UT number, serial number, assembly configuration, and production revision before ordering.
• Homelite identifies PS05268 as a Washer.
• Match part number PS05268 directly with the number shown in your equipment's illustrated parts diagram or OEM documentation.
• The exact function of this washer depends on its installation location within the applicable equipment assembly.
• Do not assume PS05268 is interchangeable with a generic washer of approximately the same diameter.
• Washers can differ in inside diameter, outside diameter, thickness, material, hardness, profile, finish, and intended load characteristics.
• Do not substitute a flat washer, thrust washer, spring washer, wave washer, lock washer, or shim unless the OEM documentation specifically identifies the substitute as compatible.
• Inspect the associated bolt, screw, nut, shaft, bracket, bushing, bearing, or mounting surface when replacing the washer.
• If the original washer is distorted or excessively worn, inspect the mating components for looseness, misalignment, excessive movement, or improper fastener torque.
• Replace stripped, corroded, bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged associated hardware as necessary.
• Clean the installation location before fitting the replacement component.
• Install the washer in the same factory position and orientation as the original part.
• If the washer has a shaped, beveled, cupped, stepped, or otherwise directional profile, follow the applicable parts diagram or service procedure for correct orientation.
• Use the correct associated fastener and tighten it according to the manufacturer's specifications.
• Do not overtighten fasteners in an attempt to compensate for worn or damaged components.
• After installation, verify that the associated assembly is correctly aligned and that any moving components operate without binding or excessive play.
• Shut off the equipment, allow moving components to stop completely, disconnect the applicable power source, and follow Homelite service procedures before performing repairs.
• This listing is for one Homelite PS05268 Washer only unless otherwise specified. Bolts, screws, nuts, shafts, brackets, bushings, bearings, and other associated components are sold separately.
• Match part number PS05268 with your equipment's illustrated parts diagram or OEM documentation before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
