Genuine Makita Catch Lever — part number 452020-4. This compact replacement catch lever is the original Makita part used in the throttle/control area of several small petrol chainsaws; it installs in the control/grip assembly and works together with the throttle lever and torsion spring to restore reliable engagement and safe operation.
Example models this part fits: EA3201S / EA3200S, EA3500S (EA3500S40B), EA3501S (EA3501S35B), PS32 and PS35C among others — sold as a single genuine Makita replacement (part 452020-4).
If your saw’s throttle/cover isn’t seating properly or a small lever is broken or missing, this original Makita catch lever gets the control assembly back to factory fit and feel without swapping larger assemblies — a simple, direct replacement from the Makita parts breakdown.
