Replacing The Drive - Husqvarna 531RS Workshop Manual

Starter
5. Tighten the return spring.
Pull out the starter cord completely and slow the
starter pulley with your thumb.
Lift the starter cord up out of the cut-out on starter
pulley.
Then turn the starter pulley anti-clock-wise 4
revolutions.
Check the spring tension. With the cord completely
pulled out the cord pulley should be able to be
turned at least another half revolution.
6. Fit the starter on the engine body. Tilt the starter
slightly forward to make sure that the starter snaps
on the cylinder cover and on the muffler. Pull the
starter handle slowly to engage the drive pawls
with the starter wheel. Hold the starter in place and
tighten the 4 screws. Check that the starter works.
