This recoil starter screw is an authentic OEM replacement part used in various lawn mowers and other lawn and garden machines that use a pull start system. The recoil screw is used in various places on the recoil system to connect parts and hold them in place. Over time, vibrations from the equipment may cause the screw to become loose and fall out. If this happens, the recoil starter may fail, and the equipment will not operate. The recoil screw should be replaced.Recoil starters operate when the starter rope is pulled. This unwinds the recoil spring, which causes the engine to fire and run. If the recoil feels loose or wobbly when the pull rope is used, the screws may be loose. This is a good indicator that the system should be inspected for loose or missing screws. Extra recoil screws should be kept in the repair toolbox to have on hand during inspections and routine maintenance.This recoil starter screw is a high-quality gold metal screw that is sold individually. It is designed for use in lawn and garden equipment manufactured by MTD, Craftsman, and various others.
