Remington Tiller Starter

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 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.

A starter handle is a piece that works in combination with several other components to start the engine in numerous machines, including lawn equipment. It works when the user pulls the starter handle grip, attached by a mechanism to the crankshaft. It turns to start the engine.

Starter handles can become damaged from normal use, misuse, or after an accident.Replacing the starter handle is a simple project. After locating the mechanism it attaches to, typically a sturdy rope or cord, the starter handle should be tied securely to the end of the string. Wear gloves to protect the hands during the process.

The recoil starter assembly is comprised of the housing, the recoil spring, the starter pulley, the starter rope, and the plastic starter grip. It creates the motion that spins the flywheel to engage the engine. The grip is pulled, which extends the rope and activates the starter spring, which then engages the starter pulley and the flywheel, respectively. Over time, various components of the recoil starter can become damaged or worn with regular use. This is often going to require a replacement and in most cases, it will be easier to replace the entire assembly than a single component.
