Lawn mower starting problem.

Jul 23, 2011 0 Replies

Hi all,


I have a Flymo Lawnchief 400 that works fine, apart from the starting pulley.



Basically I have to pull it really, really quick to get it to engage, it seems that I would need to replace the whole top as the pulley mechanism is built into it.



I've taken it off and the 2 'prongs' that engage do come out (obviously or I wouldn't be able to start it) but not very freely, I have oiled etc but this doesn't seem to have helped.


Any suggestions please?



Thanks for any/all help



Pete
