This recoil starter, also called a rewind starter, drives the combustion process in small lawn and garden equipment engines. By engaging the recoil starter, the engine can be cranked manually with enough speed to get all of the operating systems for the equipment running. If the recoil starter is damaged or broken, the equipment will not start and cannot run.Simple use of the equipment can cause wear and tear that makes the recoil starter fail. If pulling on the cord leads to a feeling of slackness, it's often due to an issue with the recoil starter. The machine will not be able to be used until this component has been replaced. The process involves removing the recoil housing cap, untying the rope, and re-tensioning the spring before reinstalling the rope and housing.This recoil starter is compatible with lawnmowers, generators, snowblowers, leaf blowers, and tillers manufactured by Simplicity, Briggs & Stratton, MTD, Toro, and Cub Cadet. It is a genuine OEM replacement part that is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual part. A wrench will be needed to replace the recoil starter.
