• The exact function and installation location of 505201601 depends on the equipment model and assembly.
• This component should not automatically be confused with a blade guard, debris shield, belt guard, heat shield, chain guard, cutting attachment guard, or other protective component unless the applicable OEM diagram identifies it as such.
• Do not substitute a different guard based solely on similar appearance.
• Guards can differ in dimensions, shape, material, mounting points, clearances, reinforcement, and intended protective coverage.
• Do not modify, cut, drill, bend, or otherwise alter the replacement guard to fit equipment for which it was not designed.
• Inspect the associated mounting brackets, screws, bolts, nuts, spacers, retainers, housings, and surrounding components when replacing the guard.
• If the original guard was damaged by impact, inspect nearby components for bending, cracking, misalignment, or other damage.
• Replace missing, stripped, bent, cracked, or heavily corroded mounting hardware as necessary.
• Clean the mounting area before installing the replacement component.
• Install the guard in the same factory position and orientation as the original.
• Make sure all mounting points are correctly aligned before tightening hardware.

• Shut off the equipment, allow all moving components to stop completely, disconnect the spark plug or battery where applicable, and follow Husqvarna service procedures before replacing protective components.
