How do I replace the ripcord from a Craftsman lawn mower?

By admin | October 5, 2009

kimchee_boi asked:


I own a 4 -5 year old push style Craftsman lawn mower. The other day when trying to start it the entire ripcord pulled completely out. I called my local mower repair shop and they said it’s going to cost me $45 to 55 bucks to repair.

Is this something I can do myself?

      just take the top off, grab the string put it threw the hole tie it to something you should still have the handle and put the top back on. sometimes they have the coil on the outside and u will have to wind it back up but 4-5 years old the coil is probably on the inside of the contraption that makes the string wind back up so its even easier
