Here is my first attempt to use this 1963 wind up starter. The lock pin slipped while I was still cranking it, the engine started, and broke off 4 aluminum flywheel fins by hitting the lock pin! :(( It all happened so fast that by the time I got to the realease button, the fins were already long gone! This type of starter makes it easy for anyone to start the engine, but it weighs about 10 pounds extra! I will stick with the normal type of recoil starter!
