2. See Figure 112. Start four hex flange screws (B) to
fasten blower housing (C) to crankcase. Exercise care
to avoid pinching armature, stop switch or stator wires.
3. If equipped with rotary stop switch (D), capture ground
wire ring terminal on inside of blower housing when
installing top screw on crankcase side, and connect
one-place wire connector between stop switch and
armature.
4. Using the sequence shown in inset of Figure 112,
tighten screws as follows. Verify that bottom of blower
housing is above or flush with bottom of engine base.
Blower Housing Screws
Torque Models
60-110 lb-in (6.8-12.4 N-m) 130G00, 131G00, 13R200
71-124 lb-in (8-14 N-m) 13U100, 13U200
NOTE: Bottom screw on cylinder head side also
captures cylinder heat shield. Bottom screw on
crankcase side also captures flywheel guard.
Rewind Starter
1. Inspect rewind starter as follows:
A. Pull rope to verify that pulley moves freely in both
directions.
B. Verify that tension increases when rope is pulled
and decreases when rope is released.
NOTE: If rope is broken, verify that tension
increases when pulley is rotated by hand in a
counter-clockwise direction.
C. Verify that the rope eyelet in the rewind starter
housing is in good condition (without burrs or
excessive wear).
D. Inspect rope for cuts, breaks, or fraying. If rope
replacement is necessary, see
Replace Rewind
Starter Rope.
2. Orient rewind starter as noted before removal.
NOTE: Rewind starter may be installed in the 2 o'clock,
8 o'clock, 10 o'clock, or 12 o'clock positions.
3. See Figure 113. Loosely install three hex flange screws
(A) to fasten rewind starter (B) to blower housing.
NOTE: To ensure that pawls evenly engage flywheel
starter cup, pull starter rope, tighten hex flange screws
until snug, and then release starter rope.
4. Alternately tighten three hex flange screws as follows.

Replace Rewind Starter Rope
NOTE: Consult the
Illustrated Parts List for the required
length and diameter of rope.
1. See Figure 114. Firmly hold rewind starter assembly
and pull out rope (A) until pulley (B) stops rotating.
NOTE: Spring tension in pulley increases as rope is
pulled out. If the rope is broken, turn pulley in a
counter-clockwise direction until spring is tightly wound.
2. Rotate pulley in a CW direction to align pulley hole (C)
and rope eyelet (D) in housing.

3. See Figure 115. Secure pulley with a screwdriver (E)
to prevent further rotation.
4. Cut rope and remove one piece from pulley and the
other from handle (F).
