Instructions / Assembly

3)Check after reassembly
(1)Pull the STARTER KNOB a few times:
If the STARTER KNOB is too heavy to pull, check the associated parts whether
they have been reassembled as instructed.
If the RATCHET fails to function, check whether the parts such as the spring
have been missing.
(2)Pull the STARTER KNOB to pull out the STARTER ROPE to the end:
Unwind the STARTER ROPE 1 to 2 turns in the way as shown in Fig.6-1, since the SPIRAL
SPRING may be over-stressed if the STARTER ROPE still remains in the rope groove.
If the STARTER ROPE is found weak to move back, or the STARTER KNOB droops when you
let it go, apply grease over the rotating and friction parts. If it does not recover,
pull the STARTER KNOB such that the STARTER ROPE is pulled by 1 to 2 turns. (In this
instance, make sure in the way described above that the SPIRAL SPRING is not over-stressed.)
If the SPIRAL SPRING comes away with a sound and the STARTER ROPE will not be moved
back, reassemble the RECOIL STARTER from the begining.
4)Other notice
(1)When the SPIRAL SPRING flys out:
Make a ring having a smaller diameter
than that of the SPIRAL SPRING housing
by a thin wire. Hook the SPIRAL SPRING
at its outer end on the ring to wind
it as shown in Fig.6-6, and fit it into
the SPIRAL SPRING groove. Press the
SPIRAL SPRING with your finger to
prevent it from coming away and remove
the ring slowly. The ring can easily be
removed by prying it with the tip of a
screwdriver. See Fig.6-4 for how to
fit the SPIRAL SPRING corr
ectly into
the groove.

(2)At off-season and disassembly:
Apply grease (heat-resistent type is preferable) over the rotating and friction
parts at the end of the season and at disassembly.
(3)When the SWING ARM does not move smoothly:
Apply grease over the SWING ARM end and in the vicinity of place along which
the end slides.
