Starter

!
WARNING!
• The recoil spring sits in its tensioned posi-
tion in the starter housing and can with
careless handling fly out and cause personal
injury.
• When replacing the recoil spring or the
starter cord great care should be exercised.
Always wear protective glasses.
Replacing a broken or worn starter cord
• Loosen the bolts that hold
the starter against the
crankcase and lift off the
starter unit.
• Pull out the cord approx. 30
cm and lift it out of the cut-
out in the starter-pulley's
periphery. Reset the recoil
spring by allowing the pulley
to slowly rotate backwards.
• Undo the bolt in the centre
of the pulley and remove
the pulley. Insert and secure
a new starter cord in the
starter pulley. Wind approx.
3 turns of the starter cord on
the starter pulley. Fit the
starter pulley against the
starter so that the end of the
return spring hooks into the
starter housing. Fit the bolt
into the centre of the starter
pulley. Carry the starter
cord through the hole in the
starter housing and the
starter handle. Tie a good
knot on the starter cord.
MAINTENANCE
Tensioning the recoil spring
• Lift up the starter cord from
the cut out on the pulley and
turn the pulley approx. 2
turns clockwise.
NOTE! Ensure the starter
pulley can be turned at least
a further 1/2 turn when the
starter cord is fully
extended.
Changing the broken recoil spring
• Lift the starter pulley (see
"Changing a broken or worn
starter cord" ).
• Dissasemble the recoil
spring by tapping the pully
(with its inside facing down)
lightly against a working
bench or similar. If the
spring pops out when
assembling, it should be
mounted again, out and in
towards the centre.
• Lubricate the recoil spring
with thin oil. Assemble the
starter pulley, and tension
the recoil spring.
Fitting the starter
• Fit the starter by first pulling
out the starter cord and then
placing the starter in
position on the crankcase.
No slowly release the
starter cord so that the
pawls grip in the pulley.
• Fit and tighten the screws
that hold the starter.
