Operation
The rewind starter operates through a
retainer/friction disc that causes two,
spring-loaded, engagement dogs to extend from
the rewind starter and engage the inside of the
starter hub on the flywheel. The engagement
dogs extend outward to make contact with the
starter hub when the rope is pulled. When the
engine starts, and the rope is released the
starter dogs are retracted back into the center of
the rewind mechanism, disengaging them from
the starter hub.
Recoil Assembly Replacement
If the starter should wear out, or fail, the
complete recoil and blower housing assembly
must be replaced (the exception to this is the
starter rope). You should not attempt to replace
