Replacing the starter cable
Remove four screws (14). Remove starter housing (15).
Insert a small screwdriver through the cooling slits on the back
of the starter housing. Push aside the tabs (16) slightly and
carefully remove the air guide (17) from the starter housing
(15). Proceed in the order (A - B - C - D).
If replacing a starter cable that has not come apart, it will
rst be necessary to de-tension the return spring on the
cable drum.
To do this, pull the starter grip all the way out of the starter
housing.
Hold the cable drum rmly with one hand, and with the other
guide the starter cable into the recess (24) and hold it.
Now carefully let the cable drum turn counter-clockwise until
the return spring is completely de-tensioned.
Remove all pieces of cable (18).
Thread in a new starter cable (dia 4.0 mm, length 1000 mm) as
shown (don’t forget the disc (19)) and knot both ends.
Pull knot (20) into the cable pulley (21).
CAUTION: Do not let the knots or the cable ends protrude from
the outside of the cable pulley.
Pull knot (22) into the cable grip (23).
Guide the cable into the recess (24) on the cable drum and
use the cable to turn the drum two turns in the direction shown
by the arrow.
Holding the cable drum in your left hand, straighten out the twist in
the cable with your right hand, pull the cable tight, and hold.
Release the cable drum. The drum´s spring force will now wind
the cable around the drum.
Repeat three times. The starter grip must be upright on the
starter housing.
NOTE: With the cable pulled all the way out, it must still be
possible to turn the pulley another 1/4 turn against the return
spring.
CAUTION!
Injury hazard! When you pull out the starter cable hold the
starter handle rmly. It will whip back if the cable pulley is
released by accident.
Install the air guide (17) in reverse order. Make sure that the
tabs (16) click back into the starter housing.
When putting the starter housing back on, it may be necessary
to pull the starter handle slightly until the starting mechanism
engages.
