Title: Replace Ryobi pull cord
Post by: aubergine on September 05, 2010, 17:29

Hi

I was wondering if anyone can help.  My pull cord has broken and I am having a go at replacing it myself.  I have bought a new cord but I am having a problem taking apart the unit to get access to the place I connect the new cord. 

I have taken off the plastic cover but I am not sure what to do next.  I have attached pictures of where I have got to.  I was hoping for any advice on what to do next as I was hoping to avoid taking into a repair place.  The model is RBC 30 SESA.
Grateful for any advice.

Regards

Aubergine

Thank you Smudgie, yes it appears to be the same unit.  I feel I have to removed the piece on the top of the first photo to get to the cord tie point but not sure how?
