The recoil starter assembly starts the engine by using the grip to pull the rope, which activates the starter pulley and spring, causing the flywheel to rotate and start the engine. Over time, the starter spring can become stretched, causing the rope to seize up or fail to retract. The housing itself could also become damaged. It’s often easiest to replace the entire recoil starter assembly with this OEM model rather than individual components. The installation can be done quickly with a screwdriver and wrench by removing the three bolts that hold the assembly in place. This genuine OEM part is manufactured by MTD. It fits lawn mowers, tillers, log splitters, and other small engines made by MTD, as well as models from Bolens, Yard-Man, Yard Machines, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, and Husky. This part includes the starter housing that protects the flywheel and other internal components, along with a starter pulley, spring, pull rope, and grip. The hardware required for this assembly is not included and must be purchased separately.

This starter pulley kit is designed for use on string trimmers. It is made to spin the flywheel so the engine will start up when the starter rope is pulled. Sometimes, the teeth on the starter pulley can wear out with extended use. This can result in teeth that do not contact the pawls on the flywheel. In some cases, the pulley will also wear in the area where the recoil spring attaches. If the string trimmer's engine isn't starting, has trouble starting, or has a pull rope that won't retract, a starter pulley kit offers the replacement parts needed. Before the replacement of the part is done, the engine should be cool to the touch. The wire and boot should also be removed from the spark plug before replacement to prevent starting the engine. This is a genuine OEM component that comes directly from the manufacturer. It's designed for use on gas-powered string trimmers by Husqvarna, Craftsman, and Poulan. It is made of hard plastic and steel and comes with the recoil spring, drive pulley, rewind pulley, and drive spring. This is sold as an individual kit.

This is a starter solenoid used in a variety of riding lawn mowers and yard tractors. Unlike most push mowers that are started by pulling a rope and firing a magneto, riding mowers have starters and batteries. The solenoid is the link between the battery and starter. When the ignition key is turned, electricity from the starter flows through the solenoid to the mower's ignition, firing the engine. Because it is the part subjected to abrupt electrical charges, over time the solenoid's internal workings may fail and the device must be replaced. A symptom of a bad solenoid is the if the engine fails to turn over. To make sure the problem is not the battery, turn the ignition switch on and use a screwdriver to simultaneously touch both terminals of the solenoid. If the engine turns over, the solenoid must be replaced. The solenoid sits inside the engine housing by the starter motor. Before starting to replace it, disconnect the positive battery cable. Replacing this device is as simple as disconnecting the wires that attach it to the battery and unbolting it from the engine housing. This solenoid is a genuine OEM replacement part that is manufactured to be an exact replacement for the original part. This solenoid is compatible with Poulan, Husqvarna, Craftsman, and Weed Eater equipment.

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 durable replacement part is made of metal and sold individually.

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 assembly is a genuine MTD part, sold individually. This recoil starter assembly can be used as a replacement part for a tiller. The recoil starter assembly comes with all of the necessary components and fasteners required to replace a recoil starter. The recoil starter is a crucial part of the pull-start mechanism of a tiller, by which the engine of the tiller is powered on when the operator engages the pull-start. Remember to wear work gloves as a safety precaution while repairing or replacing parts within an outdoor appliance. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. This recoil starter assembly is compatible with the following outdoor appliance brands: MTD, Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Yard Man, Yard Machines, and Huskee.

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 is a rope guide that is used with various types of lawn and garden equipment. It connects the rope handle and the starter rope. It helps prevent damage to either of the ropes by covering them in durable plastic material. Over time or through use, the rope guide can become damaged or break. If this happens, the part will need to be replaced. First, put the equipment on a flat surface. Drain the fuel from the tool and disconnect the spark plug wire. Next, the starter will need to be removed from the tool to gain access to the rope guide. The rope guide and any other damaged components, such as the string and springs, can be removed from the tool before adding a replacement component. This is an authentic OEM replacement component that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual part. The rope guide is compatible with string trimmers, leaf blowers, hedge trimmers, and pole pruners manufactured by Little Wonder, Echo, and Shindaiwa.
