: Let go of rope slowly so that it winds
onto the rotor.
The starter grip must locate firmly in
the rope guide bush. If the grip
droops to one side: Add one more
turn on rope rotor to increase spring
tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended
it must still be possible to rotate the rotor
another 1 1/2 turns.
If this is not the case, the spring is
overtensioned and could break.
: Take one turn of rope off the rotor in
such a case.
: Fit the fan housing.
