This OEM starter grip is a replacement for select Briggs & Stratton engines. The starter rope grip provides the handle that is used to pull the starter rope. When it is pulled, the starter recoil spring engages the flywheel puller, which then causes the flywheel to rotate and starts the rotation of the blade as the engine fires. The starter rope grip is made of durable plastic but it can become damaged or cracked over time. If it is broken, the rope will be unable to be pulled to engage the engine until the part is replaced. This is a genuine starter grip designed to work with a variety of lawn and garden equipment that features a Briggs & Stratton engine with a pull-start. The starter grip is sold in two pieces with the grip and a cap that snaps on once the rope has been tied inside of the handle to secure it in place. The unit is sold individually. This item does not include the rope or any additional parts.

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.
