Installing the Rope Rotor
N Coat the whole starter post
uniformly – including the grooves
(arrow) – with STIHL gear lubricant
(special accessory).
N Slip the rotor over the starter post –
turn it back and forth to engage the
anchor loop of the rewind spring.
N Slip the carrier with pawls and
washer over the starter post – turn it
back and forth to engage the anchor
loop of the rewind spring in the
carrier.
N Fit the E-clip (7) in the groove in the
starter post.
N Push the spring clip (3) into position
– it must point counterclockwise as
shown and engage the pawl's peg.
Tensioning the Rewind Spring
N Pull the starter rope out of the
housing as far as stop and make a
loop.
N Fit the tensioning wrench on the
carrier.
N Use the tensioning wrench to rotate
the rotor six full turns
counterclockwise – the rope winds
itself around the tensioning wrench
in this process.
N Hold the tensioning wrench steady
and unwind the rope.
N Pull out and straighten the twisted
rope at the starter grip.
N Hold the rope steady with the starter
grip.
N Release the tensioning wrench and
rope slowly so that it winds onto the
rotor.
N Remove the tensioning wrench.
The starter grip must locate firmly in the
guide bushing. If the grip droops to one
side: Add one more turn on the rope
rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended it
must still be possible to rotate the rotor
at least one more turn. If this is not the
case, the spring is overtensioned and
could break.
N Take one turn of the rope off the
rotor.
