Craftsman String Trimmer Starter

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.
