8. Rewind starter
8.1 General
If the action of the starter rope
becomes very stiff and the rope
rewinds very slowly or not
completely, it may be assumed that
the starter mechanism is in order
but plugged with dirt. At very low
outside temperatures, the
lubricating oil on the rewind spring
may thicken and cause the spring
windings to stick together. This has
a detrimental effect on the function
of the starter mechanism.
To clean the rewind spring, it is
sufficient to apply a few drops of a
standard solvent-based degreasant
not containing any chlorinated or
halogenated hydrocarbons to the
rewind spring.
Carefully pull out the starter rope
several times and allow it to rewind
until its normal smooth action is
restored.
Before installing, lubricate the
rewind spring and starter post with
STIHL special lubricant, b 14.
If clogged with dirt or pitch, the
entire starter mechanism, including
the rewind spring, must be removed
and disassembled. Take particular
care when removing the rewind
spring.
