Service manual
General information
The
starter assembly
inside the cover consists of a rope wound around a pulley. The movement from the
pulley to the fan (and therefore to the engine shaft) is transmitted through a pair of couplings. The return of
the pulley and the rewinding of the rope are obtained from a spiral spring.
See the relevant section
for advice on resolving problems due to the malfunctioning of the star-
ting system.

6.1. Removing the starter assembly

three nuts (

).
2 - Refit the starter assembly (1
) by tightening the
cover nuts (
3
) to the torque indicated.
6.2. Replacing the rope
1 - Remove the starter assembly
.
2 - Keep hold of the pulley (

pulley.
