General information
The starter assembly inside the cover consists of a rope wound around a pulley. The movement from the
pulley to the flywheel (and the engine shaft) is transmitted by a pair of hooks. The rope is returned and
rewound by a spiral spring.
See the relevant section
for advice on resolving problems due to the malfunctioning of the star-
ting system.
