english 392BA044 KN : Carefully remove the parts of the old spring from the starter cover and rope rotor. : Insert the new rewind spring in the rope rotor and, at the same time, engage the outer spring loop in the rotor's recess - the wire retainer slips off in this process. If the spring pops out and uncoils, refit it in the counterclockwise direction, starting outside and working inwards. : Go to "Installing the Rope Rotor". Installing rope rotor with rewind spring : Carefully unpack the new rope rotor with rewind spring. The spring may pop out if not handled with care - risk of injury. : Lubricate the spring with a few drops of non-resinous oil - see "Special Accessories". : Go to "Installing the Rope Rotor". Installing the Rope Rotor a a = 2mm (0.08 in) : Check dimension a for inner spring anchor loop and bend it slightly if necessary. : Coat rope rotor bearing bore with non-resinous oil - see "Special Accessories". 8 : Slide the rotor onto the starter post - turn it back and forth until the rewind spring anchor loop (8) engages. : Insert the screw (5) and tighten it down securely. : Go to "Tensioning the Rewind Spring". 392BA025 KN 389BA029 KN Tensioning the Rewind Spring : Make a loop in the unwound starter rope and use it to turn the rope rotor six full revolutions counterclockwise. Hold the rotor steady - straighten the twisted rope - release the rotor - let go of rope slowly so that it winds onto the rotor. : Check spring tension: - The starter grip must be firmly seated in the rope guide bush. If the grip droops to one side: Add one more turn on rope rotor to increase spring tension. - When the starter rope is fully extended it must be possible to rotate the rotor another half turn. If this is not the case, the spring is overtensioned and could break. Take one turn of rope off the rotor. : Go to "Fitting the Starter Cover". 34 HT 70, HT 75
