extended, it must still be possible to
rotate the rope rotor at least another
half turn before maximum spring
tension is reached. If this is not the
case, pull the rope out, hold the
rope rotor steady and take off one

Do not overtension the rewind

break.
Fit the fan cover – see 8.2.
Wear on the guide bush is
accelerated by the starter rope

Pull knot (1) out of recess (2) in
the rope rotor.
Undo the knot.
Pull starter rope out of the rope
rotor and guide bush.
