Worked perfectly
The part arrived quickly and was exactly what I needed. Also included easy step by step repair instructions which made it a breeze. TIP: If you are replacing the starter pull rope assembly on your power tool, check to see if this part, the Pawl Catcher, also needs replacing. One of the plastic pieces inside the Pawl which does the catching had broken off on mine. Order it all at once!
