Take the (4) 10mm bolts off the recoil housing. Push the new rope assy through the housing to the reel and secure the rope end.Let the excess rope and handle dangle from the cover.Push the cover in place and turn the cover clockwise until the excess rope and handle bottom out on the cover wrapping around the reel. Turn clockwise about 3 more turns to wind the spring,hold the cover in place,replace the 4 bolts.

When I said 10mm was referring to the bolt head size. Bolts are actually 6 mm diameter by 1.25 pitch x 25-30 mm in length if I remember correctly. You can get them at any hard ware store. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-POLARIS-FLANGE-BOLT-P-N-3083826-/180542992339?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a09336fd3&vxp=mtr
