Hedge Trimmer Starter

This is a genuine replacement for the recoil starter assembly on select Echo lawn and garden equipment engines. The starter assembly is what starts the machine, and it is subject to a lot of repetitive motion with regular use. It may wear out or the plastic may become broken. In some cases, the starter rope could break and it may be easier to replace the entire assembly. This genuine OEM starter assembly is manufactured by Echo to exact standards and is sold as a single assembly. The recoil starter assembly includes the starter recoil housing, the starter rope, and the plastic pull handle used to start the unit. It does not include the hardware that is used to secure the assembly so that will require an additional purchase for those who need it. The repair will require a hex key or Allen wrench. To perform this repair, allow the engine to cool and disconnect the power. Then, remove the four screws securing the assembly to the unit and discard the old starter assembly. Install the new one, reattach the four screws, and then reconnect the power supply. Always wear gloves when performing engine repairs and parts replacements.
