2. Removed string trimmer shaft. After removing one screw and loosening the clamp, the shaft simply pulls out of clutch/motor assembly
3. Removed plastic engine covers and clutch assembly. Clutch assembly must be removed in order to remove starter housing. Make note of where the screws go. Different lengths, some are machine screws.
4. Removed baffle that captures the starter assembly. WEAR EYE PROTECTION is case the spring is broken and has become dislodged.
5. Replaced parts along with a new rope (original rope was frayed causing binding).
The starter spring is pre-wound inside of a metal shroud. It simply drops into place without any hassle. No tension adjustment required.
Make sure that the starter assembly works freely before reassembling the entire string trimmer !
Fortunately, I found a YouTube video that was very similar to my application.
