: Pull out the rope (1) with the
starter grip and straighten it out.
– Hold the starter grip firmly to keep
the rope (1) tensioned.
: Let go of the rope rotor and let the
starter rope rewind slowly.
The rewind spring is correctly
tensioned when the starter grip sits
firmly in the rope guide bushing
(arrow) without drooping to one
side. If this is not the case, the
spring must be tensioned by one
additional turn.
When the starter rope is fully
extended, it must still be possible to
rotate the rope rotor at least another
half turn before the maximum spring
tension is reached, otherwise the
spring tension must be reduced – it
may break –
To reduce the spring tension:
Pull the rope out, hold the rope rotor
steady and take off one turn of the
rope.
