Replacing the starter cable
Unscrew four screws (1).
Remove fan housing (2).
Insert a small screwdriver through the ventilation slit on the back
of the fan housing (2) near the holder (15).
Bend the air guide tab (4a) slightly to the side and carefully
remove the air guide (3) from the fan housing.
CAREFUL! Injury hazard! Do not unscrew screw (7) if the
return spring is under tension.
If the starter cable is to be replaced although it is not broken,
it will be necessary to Þ rst de-tension the cable drum return
spring (13).
To do this, use the grip to pull the cable all the way out of the
fan housing.
Hold the cable drum with one hand, and with the other push the
cable into the space (14).
Carefully let the drum turn until the return spring is no longer
under tension.
Unscrew screw (7) and remove the carrier (8).
Remove any pieces of old line and take out the spring (6).
Carefully remove the cable drum (5).
Put the spring (6) back in the cable drum (so that its lower end
Þ ts in the notch, see the arrow in the close-up).
Thread a new cable (dia. 3.8 mm, length 1000 mm) as shown
in the illustration (don’t forget the washer (10)) and knot both
ends as shown.
Pull the knot (11) into the cable drum (5) and press it into the
space.
Pull knot (12) into the starter grip (9).
Put the cable drum and spring back on, and turn it slightly until
the return spring catches.
Guide the hole (16) in the carrier (8) over the end of the spring,
press down the carrier and turn it slightly counter-clockwise until
it is ß ush on the cable drum.
Insert screw (7) and tighten.
Guide the cable into the slot (14) on the cable drum and turn
the drum with the cable clockwise three times.
Hold the cable drum with your left hand and with your right hand
untwist the cable, pull it tight and hold it.
Carefully release the cable drum. The spring will wind the cable
around the drum.
Repeat the procedure once. The starter grip should now stand
straight up on the fan housing.
NOTE: With the cable pulled all the way out, it must still be
possible to turn the pulley another 1/4 turn against the return
spring.
CAUTION: Danger of injury! Secure the cable grip when
pulled out! It will whip back if the cable pulley is released
by accident.
Mounting the fan housing
Insert the air guide (3) in the fan housing so that the Þ ve re-
cesses (4) engage.
Position the fan housing on the machine, apply slight counter-
pressure, and pull the starter grip until the starter mechanism
engages.
Tighten screws (1).
