Description
Overview:
The Pawl, Recoil Starter for Kawasaki Engines is a genuine Kawasaki component designed to engage the flywheel when you pull the starter rope, then disengage once the engine fires. This small but critical part restores crisp, reliable starting on a wide range of Kawasaki small engines used in lawn and garden machinery, power equipment, and light construction tools. Made from hard‐wearing, impact‐resistant materials, it withstands repeated engagement without deforming or chipping. The OEM number 131652052 confirms it is an exact-fit replacement built to Kawasaki's specifications, helping to maintain correct clearances and smooth operation inside the recoil starter assembly. Ideal for routine maintenance or repairs, it supports dependable cold starts and reduces unnecessary strain on the rest of the starter mechanism.
Key Features:
- Genuine Kawasaki part for assured quality and fit (OEM 131652052)
- Precise geometry for positive flywheel engagement and clean disengagement
- Durable, wear‐resistant construction for long service life under repeated pulls
- Helps prevent starter slip, mis-engagement, and premature rope or spring wear
- Stable performance improves starting consistency in all seasons
- Direct replacement design; fits without modification when used in the correct engine
- Manufactured to Kawasaki tolerances for reliable alignment inside the recoil housing
- Supports efficient maintenance by replacing only the worn pawl rather than the full starter
- Suitable for a wide range of Kawasaki small engines used in turf, garden, and site equipment
Typical Applications:
Used in the recoil starter mechanism on Kawasaki-powered equipment such as walk‐behind lawn mowers, ride‐on mowers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, generators, water pumps, and light construction machinery like plate compactors. Ideal when the engine rope pulls without turning the engine, the starter catches intermittently, or there is visible pawl wear.
Also known as:
Starter dog, starter catch, ratchet pawl, pull-start pawl, flywheel engagement pawl, rope starter pawl.
