4.5 Replacing the Starter Rope
See Graphic: wc_gr002882
The starter rope can be replaced without removing the rope reel pulley
from the starter assembly.
Removal:
4.5.1 Remove the starter assembly from the flywheel housing.
4.5.2 Lift the rope through the notch (a) in the drum. Pull out as much of the
rope as possible. Hold the rope and let the spring pull the drum around
clockwise until all spring tension is released.
4.5.3 Untie the knot and remove the rope.
Installation:
4.5.4 Thread the new rope through the rope reel pulley and then through the
housing. Install the handle and knot
(b) each end of the rope as shown.
Be sure the end of the rope does not protrude from the rope reel (c) or
it may interfere with the movement of the starter.
4.5.5 Lift the rope up through the notch in the edge of the drum and rotate
the drum counterclockwise to wind the spring. Guide (d) the rope
around as the drum is rotated. After two complete revolutions, remove
the rope from the notch and allow it to be pulled around the drum by
the spring tension (e). Repeat this procedure until all the rope is on the
drum and the handle rests against the housing.
4.5.6 Reattach the starter assembly to the flywheel housing.
