STIHL 0000 190 3409 ElastoStart Starter Grip - OEM Ø 3 mm Starter Handle
The STIHL 0000 190 3409 ElastoStart Starter Grip is a genuine OEM STIHL shock-absorbing starter handle designed for select STIHL chainsaws using Ø 3 mm starter rope. This ElastoStart grip helps smooth out the sharp pull resistance that can occur when starting gas-powered equipment.
STIHL ElastoStart uses a dampening design to help absorb load peaks during starter rope pull. This can make starting more comfortable by reducing the sudden jolt felt in the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
Always verify your full STIHL model, starter assembly, rope diameter, original part number, and parts diagram before ordering.
