10-2-3 CHECK AFTER REASSEMBLY
(1) Pull the starter knob a few times to check if :
A. The starter knob is too heavy to pull, check that each part has been assembled as specified.
B. The ratchet does not function, check if parts such as friction spring have been missing.
(2) Pull the starter knob and pull out the rope fully to see if:
A. If the starter rope remains in the groove of the reel, immoderate strain is imposed to the spiral
spring. Pull out the rope by approx. 30 cm, and pull it out toward inner side of the recoil starter with
holding the reel firmly with your thumb.
Then rewind the reel 1 to 2 turns while applying a brake with your thumb.
B. The return power of the rope is weak or the starter knob droops on the way, apply grease or mobile
oil to the rotating and the frictional parts.
If the problem is not solved, wind the reel 1 to 2 turns. (In this case, check that the spring is not over-
stressed.)
C. The spring comes off with a sound and the starter rope cannot be wound in the reel, reassemble
the starter from the beginning.
10-2-4 OTHER GUIDES
(1) When the spring jumps out of the reel:
With a thin wire, make a ring whose diameter
is smaller than spring housing.
Hook the outer end of the spring to the ring
and re-wind the spring into the wire ring as
shown in Fig. 10-17, then put it into the spring
housing of the reel.
Remove the ring slowly while holding down
the spring with fingers so as not to come out
of place.
The ring can easily be removed by prying it
with the tip of a screwdriver.
If the wire ring is not available, re-wind the
spring directly into the housing.
(2) Lubricate the rotating and frictional parts with
grease (If possible, heat-resistant type is pref-
erable) or mobile oil when the starter is disas-
sembled or prior to long term storage.
