Tensioning the Rewind Spring
N Make a loop in the unwound starter
rope and use it to turn the rope rotor
six full revolutions in the direction of
the arrow.
N Hold the rotor steady. Pull out and
straighten the twisted rope.
N Release the rope rotor.
N Release the rope slowly so that it
winds onto the rotor.
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.
NOTICE
When the starter rope is fully extended it
must still be possible to rotate the rotor
another half turn. If this is not the case,
the spring is overtensioned and could
break.
N Take one turn of the rope off the
rotor.
Versions with Easy2Start
N Fit the spring housing, driver and
washer on the starter post.
N Use circlip pliers to carefully install
the circlip in the starter post groove.
All models
N Fit the fan housing and shroud.
Replacing a Broken Rewind Spring
N Remove the rope rotor as described
in "Replacing a broken starter rope".
WARNING
The bits of spring may still be under
tension and could fly apart when you
take them out of the fan housing. To
reduce the risk of injury, wear face
protection and work gloves.
N Use a screwdriver to carefully
remove the parts of the spring from
the housing.
N Lubricate the new spring with a few
drops of non-resinous oil.
N Place the new spring with frame in
position in the fan housing – the
anchor loop (arrow) must engage
the lug in the housing.
N Apply suitable tools (screwdriver,
punch, etc.) to the recesses and
push the spring into its seat in the
fan housing – it slips out of the frame
in this process.
