How to fix a DR Trimmer recoil that is hard to pull?
- B
  Brandon JohnsonAug 27, 2025
  If the recoil on your DR Trimmer is difficult to pull, start by checking the engine oil level, as the engine may be seized. There could also be an oil compression lock in the cylinder. Remove the spark plug, cover the spark plug hole with a rag, and pull the recoil cord several times to clear any oil. Wipe off the spark plug and reinstall it. The recoil itself might be broken or jammed. With the spark plug wire off, try turning the engine pulley by hand. If it turns, the recoil is likely broken or jammed.

  If your DR Lawn and Garden Equipment unit isn't discharging, it could be due to a clogged discharge chute. Immediately stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and clean the inside of the blower housing. Another reason may be a foreign object lodged in the impeller. In this case, stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the lodged object.
