Why won't the starter rope rewind on my Stihl Trimmer?
- RRoberto RodriguezAug 13, 2025
If the starter rope on your Stihl Trimmer does not rewind, it could be due to a very dirty or corroded rewind spring, so clean or replace the rewind spring. Another possible cause is insufficient spring tension, in that case check the rewind spring and increase the tension. Finally, the rewind spring might be broken, so install a new rewind spring.
