Tensioning the rewind spring
Make a loop in the unwound starter
N
rope and use it to turn the rope rotor
six full revolutions in the direction of
the arrow.
Hold the rotor steady. Pull out and
N
straighten the twisted rope.
Let go of the rotor.
N
Release the rope slowly so that it
N
winds onto the rotor. The starter grip
must locate firmly in the rope
bushing. If the grip droops to one
side: Add one more turn on the rope
rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully
N
extended it must still 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 the rope off the
rotor.
