Description
Overview:
This Rope Rotor is a Genuine Stihl replacement part for the pull-start system on selected Stihl hedgetrimmers, including HS 46 and HS 46 C. It is a precision-moulded, durable polymer spool that winds and guides the starter cord, engaging the starter mechanism to turn the engine over smoothly. Replacing a worn, cracked, or distorted rotor helps restore reliable starting and protects the cord and spring from premature wear. As an OEM component (OEM No. 4237 195 0401, MPN 42371950401), it offers the correct geometry and fitment inside the starter housing, ensuring consistent performance and long service life in regular garden and professional hedge maintenance.
