at the outer edge against the gear sheave.
7. Remove the retainer pin from the strut and slowly
relieve the spring tension by allowing the spring
capsule to rotate slowly under control, until completely
unwound. The spring capsule can now be removed
from the gear sheave.
Assembly Procedure
1. Feed the new rope through the hole and tie a left-
handed knot on the rope end. Make sure the rope
and knot do not protrude from the knot cavity and
bind the pulley rotation (diag. 17).
2. Wind the rope on the sheave assembly clockwise,
viewing the gear from the gear side of the sheave.
3. Reinstall the brake spring, being careful not to spread
the spring more than necessary.
4. Install the spring capsule, making sure the starter
spring end hooks on the gear hub (diag. 18).
5. Wind the spring four full turns and align the brake
spring legs with the strut as shown. Insert the pin in
the strut (diag. 19).
6. If the starter is equipped with a locking or delay pawl
and spring, make sure these are in place before
grasping the gear and spring capsule assembly and
sliding it into the bracket. Make sure the legs of the
brake spring are positioned in the slots of the bracket.
7. Feed the rope end under the rope guide and hook it
into the "V" notch. Remove the pin and the strut will
rotate clockwise against the bracket (diag. 21).
8. Insert the new center pin by pressing or driving the
pin firmly in place. Reinstall the starter assembly on
the engine (diag. 21).
