• To reattach the starter housing, first pull the starter cord out,
then hold the starter housing against the crankcase. Slowly
release the starter cord to enable the pulley to fit between the
pawls.
• Insert and tighten the screws. Use blue Loctite® #242.
TENSIONING THE RECOIL SPRING
Lift the starter cord up into the notch on the starter
pulley and wind the pulley clockwise 5 full turns.
Remove the cord from the pulley notch while pinching
the pulley. Release the pulley slowly allowing it to wind
the rope counterclockwise onto the pulley.
• When completed, the starter handle should be pulled
back in the starter housing under it’s own tension.
• To check that the starter pulley was assembled correctly,
pull the cord completely out of the housing, grip the
pulley and turn clockwise another 1/2 turn. If the pulley
turns another 1/2 turn it is correctly assembled.
STARTER CORD REPLACEMENT
• Remove the 4 screws that attach the starter assembly to the
crankcase.
• Pull the cord out approximately 8 in and lift the cord
up into the notch in the pulley. Relax the recoil spring
by placing thumb on pulley and gently allow the pulley
to unwind entirely. Undo the screw in the center of the
pulley and remove the pulley.
• Thread the new cord through the starter cover and
fasten it to the pulley. Wind 4 turns of the starter cord
on to the pulley. Assemble the starter pulley against
the recoil spring so the end of the spring engages into
the backside of the pulley. Install the retaining screw
in the center of the pulley.
