TENSIONING THE RECOIL SPRING

Pull the starter rope with the handle until the rope is unwound, tensioning the
spring. Repeat this process, but this time, wind the rope clockwise four times
around and then pull the rope with the handle to complete the tensioning of
the spring
NOTE: When released, the starter handle should be drawn to the correct start
position after tensioning the spring.
Check that the pulley can be turned an additional 1/2 turn when the starter cord
is pulled all the way out.
