Husqvarna 3120xp High top filter

[HuntingHicap]

So I recently missed this saw on ebay, however I have never seen a High top air filter for this model saw before, and cannot find it on any of the available IPL's on the internet? @spudulike @Sveriges

Just asking as my own 3120 could do with a bigger air filter....

Could  be from a " cut off " saw ( disk cutter )

Agreed! ? Thank you Stubby, just found a 3120K IPL which shows the same parts.....next question is would it be worth fitting the parts?

• I have a 750 K chopsaw lying around and although it has a "bigger" air filter it would seem to me that compared to my HD filter equiped 372s the Ks filter is much more retrictive to stop the dust and and metal particles that they - the cutoff saw- would encounter. So for a faster reving chainsaw the filter system from a "K" may be a backward step i.e. not enough air flow ? Interesting that Husqvarna whilst offering a option for several saws to have a HD filter upgrade, 281/288, 272, 371/372 etc no option for the 3120 which maybe has something to do with after the first couple of years did they not move to a fixed H jet ? Do you remember the early 3120s had no choke just a primer bulb. Im sure someone will be along to put me right !
