:Make a loop in the unwound starter rope and use it to turn the rope rotor six full revolutions counterclockwise.
:Hold the rotor steady – pull out and straighten the twisted rope.
:Release the rope rotor.
:Let go of rope slowly so that it winds onto the rotor.
The starter grip must locate firmly in the rope guide bush. If the grip droops to one side: Add one more turn on rope rotor to increase spring tension.
When the starter rope is fully extended it must still be possible to rotate the rotor another 1 1/2 turns.
If this is not the case, the spring is overtensioned and could break.
:Take one turn of rope off the rotor in such a case.
:Fit the fan housing.

:Take out the screws (7).
:Remove the spring housing and parts of spring.
