This is a genuine replacement recoil spring that is designed to be used with select lawn and garden equipment engines. The recoil spring is part of the starter pulley assembly. When the starter rope is engaged, the pulley will then engage the recoil spring, which retracts to cause the spinning that helps power the engine. This spring is subject to constant use and can become stretched or even snap over time and with regular use.This genuine OEM recoil spring is manufactured by MTD and designed to exact standards. It can be used in models from MTD, as well as those from RYOBI, Troy-Bilt, Yard Man, Yard Machines, and Bolens. The recoil spring is made of durable metal and sold as an individual part. The rest of the starter components will need to be purchased separately if they need replaced. Always wear gloves when performing engine repairs and be careful when working on the starter system because the springs and pulleys can be under a lot of pressure. Allow the engine to cool completely and disconnect the power before getting started.

The starter spring is what is used to create the recoil to start the engine on pull-start chainsaws, blowers, trimmers, and other lawn equipment. When the starter handle is pulled, the rope extends and pulls on the spring, causing it to tighten and then release, which creates the action to fire the motor. It may also be called the recoil spring, rewind spring, or return spring, but they all refer to the starter spring. Over time, this can become worn with use, and in some situations, it can even break completely. If the starter rope will not rewind into the housing, the spring may be twisted and need to be replaced. If so, this genuine OEM starter spring will do the job for compatible machines. This model is manufactured by Husqvarna and compatible with various Poulan and Husqvarna lawn equipment. This spring may serve as a replacement for many machines including blowers, hedge trimmers, grass trimmers, chain saws, and saws. Check the user manual for compatibility and fit, as well as part numbers. Be sure to install this according to all instructions and diagrams for safe and proper operation.

The starter pawl bridge provides the resistance for the starter rope that is required to fire the engine. The bridge connects to the flywheel and is responsible for making it spin when the starter rope is pulled. Over time, the pawl can become worn with use. In the event that other starter components go bad, those can also damage the pawl. If the flywheel does not engage, it may be a faulty pawl. Always use gloves when replacing engine components and be certain to disconnect the spark plug before working on any engine parts. This OEM starter pawl bridge is manufactured to exact standards and is made by Husqvarna. It is compatible with select Husqvarna and Jonsered trimmers.

This is a recoil starter assembly, first designed for rototillers, but also used on some models of wood chippers. It measures 7 inches in diameter and has a metal housing rather than plastic. This makes it more durable, suitable for heavy-duty lawn care responsibilities. The pull cord itself is standard nylon, well suited to pulling a heavier recoil. The purpose of a recoil starter assembly is to provide a relatively low-impact way of starting the engine. Instead of turning a crank, an operator can pull a cord, which is housed inside the starter assembly. Under ordinary circumstances, this assembly will rarely need to be entirely replaced, but damage can occur due to dropping or due to pulling the cord too hard when the engine is seized. In this case, a recoil starter assembly is a drop-in repair. Unscrew the old starter assembly, seat the new one, and screw it in. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer, and it is sold individually.

This recoil starter spring is what retracts the rope back into the main starter assembly. When the rope is pulled, the spring expands. The release of the rope triggers a retraction, which pulls the rope in and activates the starter, creating the chain reaction that starts the engine.

This recoil spring and pulley assembly is used in a variety of small gasoline engines that power devices such as mowers, lawn tractors, and log splitters, among other yard and landscaping devices. The assembly works by tightly coiling the spring in the starter housing. When the starter rope is pulled, the tension on the spring is suddenly released, creating a spark that fires the air/fuel mixture. The combustion starts the engine. The constant tightening and releasing of the tension at times will cause wear on the spring, resulting in the need to replace the spring and pulley assembly. To replace the recoil starter assembly, begin by removing the housing. Next, untie or starter rope and check to see if it is frayed and needs to be replaced as well. Remove the old assembly and install the new unit. Remember when re-tensioning the spring to wind the pulley in the opposite direction. Holding the pulley tightly so the spring does not release, attach the cap. Reattach the rope and coil it around the pulley. It is advisable to wear gloves for this task because the pulley and springs have sharp edges. This OEM certified replacement assembly is compatible with Yard-Man, Husky, Cub Cadet, MTD, Yard Machines, and Troy-Bilt yard equipment.

This starter spring is a genuine OEM replacement part for chainsaws that operate using a starter rope. When an operator pulls the starter rope out, there is a pulley around which the rope then has to recoil. The starter spring maintains tension in the pulley so that the rope will naturally recoil. The starter spring also provides enough tension to prevent the operator from yanking the rope all the way out of the assembly. Through repeated use, and especially if an operator is rough on their appliance, the starter spring can loosen up and will no longer work as effectively. When this happens, the starter pulley will not recoil and the starter rope will hang loose from the appliance. Fortunately, switching out the starter spring is an easy repair that should only require a wrench and a pair of pliers. Be careful when pulling the old spring out. Although it isn't as tense as it once was, it still has the potential to snap back. This replacement starter spring is a high-quality part for Husqvarna, Poulan, and Weed Eater appliances, and as such, it is sourced from its original manufacturer. This part does not ship with any additional hardware.
