10.6.4 Lightly grease the center post of the housing and install the wear plate
(4) and the rope reel pulley. Rotate the rope reel pulley until the spring
seats in the slot at the center of the housing (13). Install the washer (7)
over the center post and seat it into the rope reel pulley.
NOTICE: Failure to replace the washer will cause the ratchet to bind
and prevent the rope reel pulley from rotating freely.
10.6.5 Add the spring (8) and the ratchet (9) to the assembly. Do not grease
the ratchet.
10.6.6 Install the cover (10) and secure it in place using the lock washer (11)
and locknut (12). Torque the locknut to 8 Nm (6 ft.lbs.). Install the rope
as described in section Starter Rope Replacement.
10.7 Replacing the Starter Rope
See Graphic: wc_gr002882
The starter rope can be replaced without removing the rope reel pulley
from the starter assembly.
Removal:
10.7.1 Remove the starter assembly from the flywheel housing.
10.7.2 Lift the rope through the notch
(a)
in the drum. Pull out as much of the
rope as possible. Hold the rope and let the spring pull the drum around
clockwise until all spring tension is released.
10.7.3 Untie the knot and remove the rope.
Installation:
10.7.4 Thread the new rope through the rope reel pulley and then through the
housing. Install the handle and knot
(b)
each end of the rope as shown.
Be sure the end of the rope does not protrude from the rope reel
(c)
or
it may interfere with the movement of the starter.
10.7.5 Lift the rope up through the notch in the edge of the drum and rotate
the drum counterclockwise to wind the spring. Guide
(d)
the rope
around as the drum is rotated. After two complete revolutions, remove
the rope from the notch and allow it to be pulled around the drum by
the spring tension
(e)
. Repeat this procedure until all the rope is on the
drum and the handle rests against the housing.
10.7.6 Reattach the starter assembly to the flywheel housing.
