Hello All,
I picked up this old B&S edger a couple weeks ago. I went to start it today and the damn starter rope ripped in two. So I went about taking off the outside cover pictured here in the vise to go about replacing it. I'd try to identify it but after scraping and cleaning a lot of the crud off I can't find any ID anywhere. Stickers are all gone or painted over, and I can't find any serial numbers anywhere. After an an internet search I'm pretty sure it's a B&S, maybe a 2.5hp model.
While trying to get the rope fed back through on the reel, of course the spring unreeled itself out and now I have to figure out how to get it back in. After an hour of messing with it, I figured I better ask the masses if they know how to do it.
For reference, the cover looks a lot like this when in place (not mine pictured):
Any idea how to do it? Or exactly what model this is, should I ever need any parts?
Thanks!
