Recoil Mechanism Reassembly (cont'd)
NOTE:
If
the spring jumped
out
of the recoil
housing, the recoil spring should be replaced.
4.
Wind
the recoil rope onto the reel in a
counterclockwise
direction (as viewed from the
side of the reel
without
the knot
in
it).
Hook the end
of the rope in the slot provided in one of the reel
flanges. Leave about
15
cm
(6
inches) of rope.
See
Figure
71.

Position the recoil spring
so
that
the end of the
spring is about
3mm
(1/8
inch) from the center post
to
ensure proper engagement
with
the reel.
6.
Line up the end of the recoil spring with the
slot
in
the reel and install the reel.
It
may help to rock the
reel back and forth slightly in order
to
get the parts
to
properly mate.

Place the friction plate, friction plate spring and
pawl onto the recoil reel as an assembly. Make sure
that the end of the
pawl
return spring is properly
positioned on the outside of the pawl then install
the bind screw. Tighten
to
0.8
to
1.O
kg m (70
to
80
in Ibs).
Prewind the spring approximately one and one half
turns in a counterclockwise direction then slip the
end of the rope through the hole in the recoil
housing.
Pull about 30 cm (12 inches) of rope
out
of the
recoil and
tie
a tight slip knot in
it.
This will keep the
recoil rope from retracting into the housing during
installation of the
'7"
handle.
Slide the
“T”
handle then the metal reinforcement
onto the recoil rope. Secure by tying a knot in the
end of the rope then inserting
it
into the
slot
in the
top of the
“T”
handle.
Release the slip knot be giving
if
a sharp
tug.
Recoil Mechanism Installation
1.
Position the recoil starter gasket on the crankcase
and install the recoil starter. Tighten all retaining
screws evenly
so
as not to damage the recoil
housing.
NOTE:
The recoil housing is self-centering and
requires no special centering procedure.
