The recoil starter assembly is a replacement for the starter on lawn equipment. It has been sourced from the original equipment manufacturer to ensure a proper fit. The assembly allows users to start up their equipment by pulling on the starter rope. This causes the cogs to engage with the drive cup on the flywheel, so the engine can start. Over time, this assembly can start to have some wear and tear issues and might need replacement. It might have cracks or pieces broken off, including on the interior of the assembly. This could make it more difficult, or even impossible, to get the engine to start. Replacing the entire assembly could be the needed fix. The genuine OEM part is a complete assembly that includes the plastic shroud, the recoil spring, starter pulley, pull rope, and handgrip. The part can be used with lawn mowers, pressure washers, wood chippers, and other small engines. It is compatible with Tecumseh, Toro, Lawn-Boy, Cub Cadet, Craftsman, and Briggs & Stratton.
