Release the rotor -
Let go of rope slowly so that
it winds onto the rotor.
The starter grip must locate firmly
in the rope guide bush.
If the grip droops to one side:
Add one more turn on rope rotor
to increase spring tension.
When starter rope is fully extended
it must be possible to rotate the rotor
at least another half turn. If this is
not possible, the spring is over-
tensioned and could break.
Take one turn off the rope.
Fit the fan housing on the
crankcase.
Set the Master Control lever to d
Push the remaining rope into
the starter grip so that the nipple (6)
is flush with the grip.
Replacing a broken rewind spring
Lubricate the new spring with
a few drops of non-resinous oil.
Remove the rope rotor -
see “Replacing Starter Rope” -
Warning: The bits of spring in the fan
housing might still be under tension and
could fly apart when you take them out
of the housing. To reduce risk of injury,
wear eye and face protection and work
gloves.
Use a screwdriver to carefully pry
the parts of the spring out of the
housing.
Place the new spring with retaining
frame in position in the fan housing -
the anchor loop must engage the
lug.
Apply suitable tools (screwdriver,
punch, etc.) to the recesses
(arrows) and push the spring into
its seat - it slips out of the retaining
frame in this process.
Reinstall the rope rotor, tension the
rewind spring, fit the fan housing
and secure in position.
Replace the chain sprocket
after using two Oilomatic chains
or sooner if the wear marks on the
sprocket are deeper than approx.
0.5 mm (1/64") since this would reduce
the life of the chain.
Check wear marks:
Left: on webs of rim sprockets
Right: on teeth of spur sprockets.
You can use gauge* 0000 893 4101 to
check the depth of the wear marks on
spur and rim sprockets.
It is best to use two chains in rotation
with one sprocket.
Before removing chain sprocket
Remove chain sprocket cover,
chain and guide bar.
Disengage the chain brake:
Pull hand guard toward front handle.
