STARTER HOUSING ASSEMBLY
It is common for concrete slurry to get inside the starter housing
assembly during cutting. This can cause the starter pawls to stick
and not engage when the rope is pulled.
IMPORTANT
• After each usage, thoroughly flush the starter housing
assembly with water. (Figure 1)
• Lubricate the starter pawls by spraying light weight oil into the
starter housing through the vents. (Figure 1)
• Check the starter cord for fraying, replace if necessary.
STARTER CORD REPLACEMENT
• Remove the 4 screws that attach the starter assembly to the
crankcase.
• Pull the cord out approximately 8” and lift the cord up into the
notch in the pulley (Figure 2). Relax the recoil spring by placing
thumb on pulley and gently allow the pulley to unwind entirely.
Undo the screw in the center of the pulley and remove the
pulley.
• Thread the new cord through the starter cover and fasten it
to the pulley. Wind 4 turns of the starter cord on to the pulley.
Assemble the starter pulley against the recoil spring so the end
of the spring engages into the backside of the pulley. Install the
retaining screw in the center of the pulley.
