Post by: Cut4fun . on April 12, 2011, 08:09:14 pm

I wonder what the $10 husky deflector goes on originally?

This is the one for $10 in the link above.  # 503589901

Found it husqvarna 281  http://www.partstree.com/parts/?lc=husqvarna&mn=281+%282001-10%29&dn=28150011

Title: Outlets for Muffler Mods
Post by: farmboy on June 21, 2011, 07:35:21 am
We have been using 281/288 outlets for MM.  They have gotten pricey as of the last price increase.  Has anyone considered the outlet for PP475 PN 503-4354-01/02 they are $4.68 @ jacksdmallengines .com?  I'm ordering a couple to see whats up.  I don't have any of the big Poulans (yet) to see.  From the IPL looks like they would be a cheaper alternative.

I like the husky deflectors. The poulan ones are huge and made for the front. The husky ones were made for side use, but I have used them to make my own dual port stihl covers from plain jane 066 084 front covers. 

Also like Al said you can make your own.

I think someone has the Chinese making them now too and selling them a little cheaper.  I will see if I can find the link again.

This is a homemade deflecter on an 038Av .The combination of holes is a tad large but the saw runs great albeit rather loud .
Title: Re: Outlets for Muffler Mods
Post by: mdavlee . on June 23, 2011, 08:20:41 pm
That 281 one is a little smaller on the outlet part than the 288 one. It's more rounded instead of squared up like the 288 one. I've used both and have been using just the 281 deflector recently since the price on the other went up so far.

This deflector on the right side in pic  was on my 6401 7901 when  I bought it.  It appears to be a husky?

Looks like you figured it out.  Welcome to the site.

Using outside host is easiest. Like Photobucket.

There is software here too but have to be under 100kb per pic to use.

According to the 288/281 IPL (1998), both saws use the same screw on deflector  503 07 83-01

I would bet though, that through the years, they varied a bit?

How about a aftermarket deflector listed for 266 for $5.95  shipping still could be a killer, but just put it with a bigger order or order a bunch at a time.

I always make my own deflectors. I use a light gauge galvanized steel. (that's just what I had hardy) First I make a thin cardboard pattern for the shape I need then transfer it to the steel. I use my vice and some thicker plates to do the bending. I'll post some pictures when I get back to my desktop.
