being pulled sideways. The wall of
the guide bush eventually wears
through and becomes loose.

rotor and pull it out of the rope
guide bush.

old bush out of the starter
cover.
Installing the new rope bush:
- Place the new bush in its seat
in the starter cover.
- Insert the screw spindle of
the installing tool through the
bush from inside the housing.
- Fit the thrust sleeve and the
hexagon nut.

nut until the bush is firmly
seated.

lower end of the rope bush.

onto the rope rotor and
reattach, see 7.3.
