Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installing this pullstart is a straightforward process requiring basic hand tools.
- Preparation: Remove the existing pullstart housing by unscrewing the mounting bolts.
- Alignment: Place the new metal pullstart onto the engine case, ensuring the 6 mm fixing holes align with the casing threads.
- Tightening: Gradually tighten the bolts in a star pattern to ensure even pressure distribution.
- Function Check: Gently pull the starter cord before starting the engine to ensure the pawl engages and retracts smoothly.
Care Instructions: Periodically inspect the pull cord for signs of fraying. Avoid pulling the cord to its absolute maximum limit to prevent internal spring fatigue. Keep the internal components free of excessive dirt and debris by using a dry brush after muddy rides.
