N It must be possible to turn the rope
rotor on another half-turn when the
rope has been drawn out
completely. If not, the spring has
been tensioned too tightly and may
break. Remove one turn of the rope
from the rotor.
N Mount the fan housing on the
crankcase
N Move the Master Control lever to the
stop position 0
N
Press the remaining rope into the
handle until the nippel (6) is flush
with the handle
Replacing broken rewind spring
N Remove the rope rotor as described
for "Replacing the starter rope".
The broken pieces of spring may
still be under tension and can
spring apart unexpectedly on
removal from the housing – risk
of injury! Wear a face shield and
protective gloves.
N Remove parts of spring
N Apply a few drops of resin-free oil to
the new replacement spring – do not
open the wire loop (retainer)
N
Insert the rewind spring – engage
outer spring loop over the lug – this
will simultaneously remove the wire
loop
N Reinstall the rope rotor, tension the
rewind spring, replace the fan
housing and screw it into place
If the spring has popped out: refit it –
working counterclockwise – from the
outside inwards
