disassembly, install the spring by spiraling the recoil
spring counterclockwise toward the center of the
housing. The outer spring loop fits on the pin in the
housing.

Premium grease.
3. If installing a new recoil rope on the reel, use a utility
knife to remove the silicone from the knot housing on

double overhand stopper knot to secure the new rope
to the reel.

housing with RTV-Black silicone and allow to cure.

housing. If the rope guide was removed from the
housing, reinstall it before attaching the rope handle.
