Pull cord broke on the water yesterday, luckily it cranked on that last pull and I made it to the dock without it cutting out!

Looking at the parts diagrams, there is a handle (#26 on the Rewind Started diagram) and a starter rope (#15 on the engine cover diagram). I don't really see how the handle and rope can come separately, but I went ahead and ordered both so I wasn't missing any parts.

Can anybody provide guidance or basic instructions for getting the pull cord installed?

Thanks!

Same happened to me few years ago. Here's my thread for reference. Good luck.
