spacer (C) and torsion spring (D). Replace dam-
aged or worn parts.
NOTE:
When it is hard to loosen bolt, install piston

stop crankshaft rotation and remove bolt easily.

bolt. To avoid pinching of torsion spring, install
these parts without setting the end (F) of torsion
spring on starter pawl. The bolt is pre-coated with
sealant on the thread. If the sealant is peeled off,
apply thread locking sealant (Loctite #242, Three-
Bond #1324 or equivalent).

end (F) of torsion spring on pawl (B), by hooking
and passing under pawl as shown. Remove fine
wire or tool.

not move smoothly, check parts for correct installa-
tion.
