muffler if the spark arrestor screen is missing or 
defective.
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to 
direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The 
exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may 
cause fire if directed against dry and combustible material.
Starter
Changing a broken or worn starter cord
Loosen the screws that hold the starter against the 
crankcase and remove the starter.
Pull out the cord approx. 30 cm (12 inches) and hook it 
into the notch in the rim of the pulley. Release the recoil 
spring by letting the pulley rotate slowly backwards.
Undo the screw in the centre of the pulley and remove 
the pulley. Insert and fasten a new starter cord to the 
pulley. Wind approx. 3 turns of the starter cord onto the 
pulley. Connect the pulley to the recoil spring so that the 
end of the spring engages in the pulley. Fit the screw in 
the center of the pulley. Insert the starter cord through 
the hole in the starter housing and the starter handle. 
Make a secure knot in the end of the starter cord.
Tensioning the recoil spring
Hook the starter cord in the notch in the pulley and turn 
the starter pulley about 2 turns clockwise.
Note! Check that the pulley can be turned an additional 
1/2 turn when the starter cord is pulled all the way out.
Changing a broken recoil spring
Lift off the pulley. See instructions under heading 
Changing a broken or worn starter cord.
Remove the recoil spring from inside the pulley by 
tapping the pulley lightly with its inside face downwards 
against a work bench or the like. If the spring pops out 
during fitting, wind it up again, working from the outside 
in towards centre.
Lubricate the recoil spring with light oil. Fit the pulley and 
tension the recoil spring.
!
WARNING! When the recoil spring is wound 
up in the starter housing it is under tension 
and can, if handled carelessly, pop out and 
cause personal injury.
Care must be exercised when replacing the 
return spring or the starter cord. Wear 
protective glasses and protective gloves.
