itself around the tensioning wrench
in this process.
Hold the tensioning wrench steady
N
and unwind the rope.
Pull out and straighten the twisted
N
rope at the starter grip.
Hold the rope steady with the starter
N
grip.

The starter grip must locate firmly in the
guide bushing. If the grip droops to one
side: Add one more turn on the rope
rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended it
must still be possible to rotate the rotor
another full turn. If this is not the case,
the spring is overtensioned and could
break.
Take one turn of the rope off the
N
rotor.
