Pull the cord out about 30 cm and lift it into the cut-out
in the periphery of the starter pulley. When the cord is
intact: Release the spring tension by letting the pulley
rotate slowly backwards.
Remove any remnants of the old starter cord and
check that the return spring works. Insert the new
starter cord through the hole in the starter housing
and in the cord pulley.
Secure the starter cord around the cord pulley as
illustrated. Tighten the fastening well and ensure that
the free end is as short as possible. Secure the end of
the starter cord in the starter handle.
Tensioning the recoil spring
Guide the cord through the cut-out in the periphery of
the pulley and wind the cord 3 times clockwise around
the centre of the starter pulley.
Now pull the starter handle and in doing so tension the
spring. Repeat the procedure once more, but this time
with four turns.
Note that the starter handle is drawn to its correct
home position after tensioning the spring.
Check that the spring is not drawn to its end position
by pulling out the starter line fully. Slow the starter
pulley with your thumb and check that you can turn the
pulley at least a further half turn.
MAINTENANCE
Changing a broken recoil spring
Undo the bolt in the centre of the pulley and remove
the pulley.
Bear in mind that the return spring lies tensioned in
the starter housing.
Loosen the bolts holding the spring cassette.
Remove the recoil spring by turning the starter over
and loosen the hooks, with the help of a screwdriver.
The hooks hold the return spring assembly on the
starter.
Lubricate the recoil spring with light oil. Fit the pulley
and tension the recoil spring.
Fitting the starter
To fit the starter, first pull out the starter cord and place
the starter in position against the crankcase. Then
slowly release the starter cord so that the pulley
engages with the pawls.
Tighten the screws.
