Rewinding a Chainsaw Recoil Starter Spring is an essential skill for any chainsaw owner or operator. This task may seem daunting at first, but with the right guidance and a bit of patience, you can save money on professional repairs and keep your chainsaw in good working condition. In this detailed guide, we will explore the process of rewinding a chainsaw recoil starter spring, step by step.

Step 1: Safety First
Before you begin any repair work on your chainsaw, prioritize safety. Ensure that the chainsaw is powered off and disconnected from any power source. Also, make sure you're wearing appropriate safety gear, including gloves and safety glasses, to protect yourself from any potential accidents.

Step 2: Remove the Recoil Starter Assembly
To access the recoil starter spring, you'll need to remove the entire recoil starter assembly from your chainsaw. This typically involves removing a few screws or bolts that secure the assembly to the chainsaw's housing. Carefully detach the starter assembly, making sure not to damage any of the components in the process.

Step 3: Disassemble the Recoil Starter
With the starter assembly in hand, carefully disassemble it to access the recoil spring. Take note of how the components are arranged, as this will be crucial when reassembling the recoil starter later.

Step 4: Remove the Old Spring
Locate the old or damaged recoil starter spring and carefully remove it from the assembly. Pay close attention to how the spring is wound, as this will be vital for the rewinding process. Note the direction of the wind and the number of coils.

Step 5: Prepare the New Spring
If you're replacing the old spring with a new one, ensure that it is the correct replacement part. Examine the new spring to confirm its length, diameter, and the direction of its wind. Compare it to the old spring to verify that they match.

Step 6: Wind the New Spring
Now comes the critical step of winding the new spring. Carefully follow the same winding direction and number of coils as the old spring. This can be a bit challenging, so take your time and be patient. You may need a pair of needle-nose pliers to help with the winding process.

Step 7: Reassemble the Recoil Starter
Once the new spring is securely wound, reassemble the recoil starter following the same arrangement of components as when you disassembled it. Ensure that everything fits snugly and that there are no loose or misaligned parts.

Step 8: Reattach the Starter Assembly
With the recoil starter fully reassembled, it's time to reattach it to your chainsaw's housing. Carefully align the assembly and secure it in place with the screws or bolts you removed earlier.

Step 9: Test the Recoil Starter
Before considering the job complete, give the recoil starter a test. Pull the starter cord gently to ensure it retracts smoothly and has the right amount of tension. If it doesn't, you may need to adjust the spring tension slightly by rewinding it again.

Rewinding a chainsaw recoil starter spring may take some practice, but it's a valuable skill for any chainsaw owner. With proper attention to detail and safety, you can successfully complete this task and keep your chainsaw running smoothly.
