ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. Lightly grease the center leg and the area where
the rewind spring will rest in the blower housing with
"Chem-Lube" or "Lubriplate" (diag. 5-3).
2. Install a new starter spring if necessary. Securely
grip the rewind spring a short distance away from
the spring tail with a needlenose pliers. Position the
rewind spring in the blower housing and hook the
spring tail to the housing as shown. Make sure the
spring tail is fully seated before slowly releasing the
needlenose pliers from the spring. Push the coiled
spring into the recessed boss area and discard the
spring holder. Apply a thin coating of "Chem-Lube"
to the top of the spring (diag. 5-4).
3. Insert the starter rope into the starter pulley and tie
a left handed knot in the end of the rope. Wind the
starter rope counterclockwise (as viewed from the
pulley bottom) on the pulley and place the end of
the rope in the notch in the pulley (diag. 5-5).
4. Place the pulley in the blower housing, press down
and rotate the pulley until the pulley drops down
and catches the end of the rewind spring. On TC
Type II models, continue assembly at step 7
(diag 5-6).
5. Lightly grease the pawl retainer and place the pawl
(with the numbers up) on the retainer. Place the
brake spring on the center of the retainer with the
tab locating the pawl (diag. 5-7).
6. Install the retainer, pawl, and spring assembly on
the center leg, locate the notch in the center leg
and the tab of the retainer and align when installing
(diag. 5-8).
7. Insert the retainer screw and torque to 30-40 inch
pounds (3.4 - 4.5 Nm).
8. Use the starter rope or fingers to turn the pulley
and pre-wind the recoil spring a minimum of 1 3/4
and a maximum of 2 1/2 turns in a counterclockwise
rotation.
9. Feed the starter rope through the starter grommet
and secure the starter handle using a left hand knot.
