N Thread the end of the rope through
the top of the guide bushing (5) and
rope rotor (6) and secure it with a
simple overhand knot.
N Coat the rope rotor bearing bore
with non-resinous oil.
N Slip the rotor over the starter
post (7) – turn it back and forth to
engage the anchor loop of the
rewind spring.
N Fit the pawls (4) in the rotor and fit
the washer (3) on the starter post.
N Use a screwdriver or suitable pliers
to install the spring clip (2) on the
starter post and engage it on the
pawls' pegs – the spring clip must
point clockwise as shown in the
illustration.
Tension the rewind spring.
N Make a loop in the unwound starter
rope and use it to turn the rope rotor
six full revolutions in the direction of
the arrow.
N Hold the rotor steady. Pull out and
straighten the twisted rope.
N Let go of the rotor.
N Release the rope slowly so that it
winds onto the rotor.
The starter grip must locate firmly in the
guide bushing. If the grip droops to one
side: Add one more turn on the rope
rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended it
must still be possible to rotate the rotor
another half turn. If this is not the case,
the spring is overtensioned and could
break.
N Take one turn of the rope off the
rotor.
N Fit the fan housing on the
crankcase.
N Set the Master Control lever to the
stop position (0) and push the
remaining rope into the grip until the
nipple is flush with the top of the
grip.
Replacing a Broken Rewind Spring
N Remove the rope rotor.
WARNING
The bits of spring may still be under
tension and could fly apart when you
take them out of the fan housing – wear
face protection and work gloves.
N Use a screwdriver to carefully
remove the parts of the spring from
the housing.
N Lubricate the new spring with a few
drops of non-resinous oil.
