I really think you are doing it wrong.

I'm a small guy, 160lbs - and not alot of upper body strength.
However, i can pull start a BruteForce 750 on one pull.

Just went outside and started it dead cold on third pull. There is no way anyone can pull that thing over on compression stroke. I tried and ripped my freaking towel!!! you would think the user manual would go over that.

Ok, here it is, but you may feel bad about your arm strength afterwards... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Right click, then save as: http://silvervette.com:81/vids/MVI_1408.AVI

Barefoot, holding a camera in one hand, no towel. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] http://silvervette.com:81/vids/MVI_1407.AVI

See ! its easy! just make sure you have the crankshaft past both compression strokes-
(2 cylinder engine) then you can build alot of momentum with a full, firm pull.

ok, There must be something wrong with my starter cause even past compression stroke this thing is unbelievably hard to pull! I also feel a lot of tension on the rope as I pull it. I pulled it past the compression strokes and still it takes two hands to pull it. The rope is even starting to look worn from all the pulling I have done.

You look as though you are putting very little effort into the pull but mine has a LOT of resistance as I pull it. I feel as though it is going to break the rope there is so much tension on it.

ok, [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] I got it. I was pulling it to where it was 90 degrees to the engine instead of straight up. Once I pulled it straight up it came up so fast I about busted my hand on the left grip. I hope I didnt shorten the life of my rope now. It's pretty easy when you do it right [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

you think the brute starts hard you should try starting my friends p830.

It has 12:1 pistons and a bore and stroke of 87X70.

there isnt much chance in my 150 lbs starting that monster.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
