Weedeater Hedge Trimmer Starter

This genuine Echo starter handle can be used as a replacement part for chainsaws, leaf blowers, leaf vacuums, and string trimmers. The function of a starter handle for one of these types of small engine appliances is to use in conjunction with a starter cord to power up the engine. It is meant for walk-behind appliances that are powered up by recoil starters.A starter handle might need to be replaced if it can no longer turn on the engine in conjunction with the starter rope. If the rope has permanently detached from the starter handle in a way that cannot be simply repaired or if parts of the handle have been damaged or have fallen off, the starter handle must be replaced with this genuine OEM part. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. This starter handle is compatible with the following brands: Husqvarna, Poulan, Weed Eater, and Paramount.

This starter spring is a genuine OEM replacement part for chainsaws that operate using a starter rope. When an operator pulls the starter rope out, there is a pulley around which the rope then has to recoil. The starter spring maintains tension in the pulley so that the rope will naturally recoil. The starter spring also provides enough tension to prevent the operator from yanking the rope all the way out of the assembly. Through repeated use, and especially if an operator is rough on their appliance, the starter spring can loosen up and will no longer work as effectively. When this happens, the starter pulley will not recoil and the starter rope will hang loose from the appliance. Fortunately, switching out the starter spring is an easy repair that should only require a wrench and a pair of pliers. Be careful when pulling the old spring out. Although it isn't as tense as it once was, it still has the potential to snap back. This replacement starter spring is a high-quality part for Husqvarna, Poulan, and Weed Eater appliances, and as such, it is sourced from its original manufacturer. This part does not ship with any additional hardware.
