Hi all,

RE: Belt Tension Super 600 Mower

Quote:
"The engine normally turns CW to start, but it can start CCW (in reverse) and pull back the starter cord & damage the pull starter pulley (cracking it), and worst pull your fingers/hand back into the engine. This is because it needs to have the spinning motion (centripetal force) of the blades/blade holder plate in the right direction (CW) to start."

Correction:
"Centripetal Force" should read "Moment of Inertia"

Hope this helps someone.
