OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Trimmers and Brushcutters Two Stroke Trimmers & Brushcutters starter rope

hi guys

i havent been on here for a while due to the house i was living in getting sold and now we are stuck at the inlaws looking for another place to rent.

i have a stihl fs96 trimmer and i am having big dramas replaceing the starter rope can someone please give a detailed explanation of how to do it as it driving me bloody nuts [almost as nuts as living at the inlaws place].

the problem seems to be its not retracting properly once i start it.

cheers guys

p.s i like the changes around here who came up with those ideas? i suspect it was MR DAVIS possibly........... for those who dont know he is one very helpful and welcome addition to this forum.

Here Mate, Hopefully this will help.
