No worries then, Norm.
That setup is more correctly termed a 'lanyard start'.
The early Victas didn't use rope lanyards, but square section leather ones! When my family bought an established OPE/farm machinery business in 1973, the Victa spares old stock included NOS leather lanyards, in their Victa skin packs...
