Gentlemen, I am rebuilding my Kirby HK30. Ive got the motor minus the starter on it.
However I acquired another motor,but the starter was off and spring out. All looks ok but
i cant figure out how to rewind the spring into the housing. Can anyone shed some light on this
....perhaps a diagram or picture would help me.

Many thanks Llew

Hello Llew

I spent some time re-mastering information from an Old Rover Repair Manual
and Scott Bonnar Parts List.

I attach the repair information.

Hope this helps.
