Description
Overview:
The Recoil Starter for Kawasaki brushcutters is a complete, genuine replacement assembly that restores reliable, easy starting. Built for Kawasaki two-stroke handheld machines, it suits models such as KBL27B and KBL27C. The unit typically combines a robust polymer housing, a high-tension steel rewind spring, and a braided starter rope with a comfortable pull handle. When the rope is pulled, the starter engages the engine flywheel to crank the engine; on release, the spring rewinds the cord ready for the next start. Designed for regular use in landscaping and grounds maintenance, this OEM starter offers the correct fit, dependable performance, and long service life for users who need their brushcutter to fire up consistently.
Key Features:
- Genuine Kawasaki OEM recoil starter for correct fit and function
- Direct replacement for worn, damaged, or non-rewinding starters
- Durable polymer housing and steel spring for long service life
- Smooth, consistent rewind for reliable cold and warm starts
- Supplied as a complete assembly to minimise downtime
- Mounting points match the original unit for straightforward fitting
- Optimised for the listed Kawasaki brushcutter engines
- Suitable for professional, commercial, and domestic maintenance schedules
Typical Applications:
Ideal for restoring reliable starting on Kawasaki brushcutters used for grass trimming, edging, and clearing light to heavy vegetation. Commonly fitted when the original starter has a broken rope, a failed return spring, or a damaged housing. Useful for landscaping contractors, grounds teams, local authorities, hire fleets, and homeowners who need dependable starting performance in everyday and seasonal use.
