If your generator is equipped with a recoil start, you will notice a handle (usually located to the right of the air filter) that looks like this: Starting a generator with a recoil start is a three-step process:

2022年6月18日 · What is the difference between electric start and recoil start? It's just that the starting methods are different. One is motor start, and the other is recoil start. If you want to save effort, you can choose electric start. Similar to a car, there is a start key and electric ignition.

Recoil start (also called manual start, pull start or rewind start) is a method of starting an internal combustion engine, usually on small machines, such as lawn mowers, chainsaws, ultralight aircraft, small outboard motors and portable engine-generators.

Commonly, most generators have the recoil start. It entails a rope and grip as the rope is pulled out for the generator to start. Pulling the rope might require more than one or two attempts.

2013年11月2日 · Have read through lots of threads on pros and cons of different kinds of generators and electrical set-ups. Have decided to go with a portable generator (most likely a Generac), but am now faced with the choice of starters and I didn't see this discussed anywhere. Thoughts? Pros and cons of each?

2023年9月6日 · A recoil starter, also known as a pull starter or rewind starter, is a mechanism commonly used to start small engines like those found in lawnmowers, chainsaws, and small generators. It allows you to manually start the engine by pulling a cord, which then engages the engine’s crankshaft to initiate the ignition process.

If your generator has an electric start button, you can use that to start the generator instead of the recoil cord option outlined below. If the electric starter doesn't work, your battery may be dead.

2023年3月13日 · An electric start generator is any generator with an electric start button or key instead of a pull cord. How they work is slightly different from how a pull cord generator works . On the latter, the pull cord unwinds the crankshaft and spins it, which starts the engine.
