Tensioning the rewind spring
: 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.
: Hold the rotor steady.
: Pull out and straighten the twisted
rope.
: 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 bushing. If the grip droops to
one side: Add one more turn on rope
rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended it
must still be possible to rotate the rotor
at least another half turn. If this is not the
case, the spring is overtensioned and
could break.
: Take one turn of rope off the rotor.
Replacing a broken rewind spring
The bits of spring 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.
: Remove the rope rotor.
: Use a screwdriver to carefully
remove the spring housing (1) and
remaining parts of the spring.
: Lubricate the new spring with a few
drops of non-resinous oil.
: Place the new spring with spring
housing in the starter cover.
: Fit the rope rope, tension the rewind
spring, fit the starter cover and
screw it in position.
For periods of about 3 months or longer:
: Drain and clean the fuel tank in a
well ventilated area.
: Dispose of remaining fuel and
cleaning solution properly in
accordance with local
environmental requirements.
: Run engine until carburetor is dry –
this helps prevent carburetor
diaphragms sticking together.
: Thoroughly clean the machine – pay
special attention to the cylinder fins
and air filter.
: Store the machine in a dry, high or
locked location – out of the reach of
children and other unauthorized
persons.
