the top of the guide bushing (1) and
rope rotor (2) and secure it with the
special knot shown.
N
Coat the rope rotor bearing bore
with non-resinous oil.
N
Fit the rope rotor on the starter
post (3).
N
Fit the carrier (4) on the rope rotor,
making sure the spring loop
engages the recess in the rope
rotorĀ°(2).
N
Insert and tighten down the
screw (5).
Tensioning the Rewind Spring
N
Make a loop in the unwound starter
rope and use it to turn the rope rotor
six full revolutions in the direction of
the arrow.
N
Hold the rotor steady. Pull out and
straighten the twisted rope.
N
Release the rope rotor.
N
Release the rope slowly so that it
winds onto the rotor.
The starter grip must locate firmly in the
guide bushing. If the grip droops to one
side: Add one more turn on the rope
