Starter Rope Guide Bush
The wear on the guide bush is
accelerated by the starter rope being
pulled sideways. The wall of the
guide bush eventually wears through,
becomes loose and has to be
replaced.

• Insert the screw spindle (1) of
the installing tool through the
bush from inside the housing.
• Pull the pawl out of the rope rotor.
• Coat peg of new pawl with graphite
grease, see 11.2, and fit it in position.
• Pull starter rope out of recess (1)
in rope rotor.
• Undo the knot (2).
• Pull starter rope out of rope rotor
and guide bush.
• Use a suitable tool to pry the old
bush out of the fan housing.
Installing the new rope bush:
• Place the new bush in its seat in
the fan housing.
• Fit the thrust sleeve (1), tapered
end first, and the hexagon nut.
• Tighten down the hexagon nut
until the bush is firmly seated.
Note:
The installing tool flares the
lower end of the rope bush.
• Remove the installing tool.
• Thread the starter rope through
the guide bush from outside and
fit it on the rope rotor - see 6.3.
• Refit the rope rotor - see 6.2.
