Section 7: Replacing the Pull Starter
If you need to replace the pull starter of your .15S, remove the
three screws from the pull starter case. Be very careful when
taking the pull starter case off of the engine and make sure the
recoil spring does not dislodge from the unit. The recoil spring is
very difficult to wind back onto the rope pulley and install back
into the pull starter case. In most cases, it is easier to have a
replacement Recoil Spring in your pit box (DYN6542) or Pull
Starter unit (DYN6535), which includes the recoil spring, rope/pul-
ley, and pull starter housing. For other replacement parts for the
pull starter and disassembling guidance, refer to the line drawing in
the manual. When reassembling the pull starter, be absolutely sure
that each part is oriented in the correct manner.
