Replacing the return
spring
Remove the starter housing (see “Replacing the starter
cable”).
Take the air guide off the starter housing (see “Replacing the
starter cable”).
De-tension the return spring on the cable drum (see “Replacing
the starter cable”).
Take off circlip (1) (circlip pliers, see “Accessories”).
Remove the cable pulley (2).
Evenly lever the return spring (4) out of the catch using a screw-
driver or similar tool. Be extremely careful - the return spring
is under tension and can pop out of its housing!
CAUTION! Injury hazard! Wear eye protection and work
gloves when performing this work!
Replacement return springs are delivered already tensioned in
the housing. CAREFUL - the spring can pop out. If it does,
it can be put back in as shown in the diagram (observe the
direction of rotation).
Before installing the new return spring (4) in the starter hous-
ing, grease it lightly with multipurpose grease, Order No. 944
360 000. Then position it and press it until the tabs (5) engage
in the slots.
Do not grease the cable drum (2) or bearing journal!
Turn the cable pulley slightly when putting it back on, until you
hear it catch. Put the circlip back on.
Wind on the starter cable (see above under “Replacing the
starter cable”).
Reinstall the air guide (see above under “Replacing the starter
cable”)
When putting the starter housing back on, it may be necessary
to pull the starter handle slightly until the starting mechanism
engages.
