UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.
Helped a young lass in the USA fix her pressure washer!! You're a life saver!! 😁
That's so great to hear!
This is what UA-cam is all about, thank you for your informative video, tried doing it several times before I watched this, my cord is sitting perfect now. Thank you sir.
So glad to hear it helped!
You are awesome! I had no idea how to fix my pull cord when it broke. Glad I looked around on youtube until I found your video. Thank a million!
Just fixed my honda washer after watching this thank you sir
I'm not going to lie. I didn't realize the video was 10 minutes long. I was going to exit out and watch a shorter one but kept watching because you started talking. You've got a great voice!
ur glazing baddd 😭😭
It puts the lotion on its skin 😂
Honestly, spent an hour trying to puzzle this out until my dull little brain finally said "UA-cam!" This vid was the first one that came up and voila! Got to tell you that I was trying to turn it clockwise instead of anti-clockwise until you showed me. Amazing that I have the exact same Honda pressure washer. Thanks from Seattle Washington USA.
Thanks, you made this easy for me for a snapped rope! I did this on a Honda GX270. I pushed the cord through the outer hole easily, then offset the holes slightly and used a thin metal rod (hex wrench) to push the cord through the inner hole easily via one of the many louvers. This saved taking the handle off the rope.
I also used a match to heat treat the knot to help it stay tied together (I could tell that the manufacturer had done this on the original knot).
Thank you this just saved me a headache I just fixed mine I’m back in business
Glad to hear you found this video informative and you managed to fix yours!
Thank you for the video. This has just helped me fix my old in about 20 minutes. The handle may now be upside down 🤦♂️ but shes working!
So glad to hear this video helped!
Thank you for this. My father didn’t teach me these things. I was just able to change the cord to the power washer I’ve been putting off!
My rope had snapped and I just threw a new one in it and it wouldn’t re-coil itself, but watching this helped a bunch! Thanks mate!
Really. Appreciate the time you took to post this video. I've been running these machines for way too long to not know how to do this..
This is really great to hear! 🙂
Awesome, from now on I'm going to save some money 💰 I'm going to replace the pull cord myself 👍🏼
Excellent video. Wished I'd watched before starting the repair...
Excellent video, repair shop wanted 50 quid off me to replace cord tried to tell me the spring was damaged as well, watched your video bought a cord for a fiver and jobs done working perfect, cheers.
Used this video to fix my Tecumseh. Epic. Thank you very much.
thanks mate i just turned 15 and this helps alot
Thank you from Louisiana, America!
same pull-cord assembly with my generator set, now i know the cord replacements, thanks for the video upload and God Bless
That's great! You could also use a lighter to firm the end of the rope, and shape it in to a needle so you can fit it easily through both holes.
Thank you very much, you video was very helpful, i was able to fix my power washing.
Thank u very much.
You're welcome - so glad it helped! 😊
I love hearing a Brittish accent...
Than you sir, God Bless you.

Love the theatrical style!!!🤣🤣🤣
Great video. Thank you 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Thank you!! I’ll be doing this tomorrow. Snapped the rope today. Gonna see if they make key start pressure washers haha. Seriously though, thank you😃
Hi there, glad to hear this video came in useful for you!
Spinaclean Ltd. it did!! Fixed it today, thank you so much. I actually was able to use a lighter on frayed end to avoid removing the handle like you did BUT your video still taught me because I had no idea how to replace/fix the rope. I used same one minus the bit left inside near the break. Thanks again & take care😃

I got the housing off and realised I don’t know what the heck I’m doing. Went to UA-cam to find someone who does (naturally a fellow Brit 🤔😅). Jokes aside, thanks mate, you really bailed me out.
Sr,,Thanks, excellent
Thank you, that was really helpful to me
WOW THANK YOU!!!
You're welcome!
Nothing worse than attempting to Power wash and you Pull the cord and BAM, the handle comes off and the string breaks. Hopefully I can replace my cord as easy if the warranty doesnt cover it. Love the British
Thank you! Great instructions.
Glad it was helpful!
thanku mate from Texas
Nice Mate
Awesome video. Helped me a great deal!!
Great video.Thank you.
Got me sorted thanks mate 👍🏽
Thanks Mate, thumbs up
This guy’s accent made me work 10% better
I took off the metal peice . There's a tiny spring. Do you have a pic of how it fits back ?
Hello, is it on one of our pressure washers? If you wanted to email in a photo to danielle@spinaclean.com I'll see how we can help 🙂
What if you wine the cord back wards counter clock wise but it doesn’t get tight?
Hello, thank you for your comment. Underneath the black assembly there is spring with a hook, here should allow you to re-attach the cord to the spring. If this doesn't help, please just give us a call on 01604 968700 we'll be happy to talk you through it if it's one of our machines 🙂
Thanks. Good video!
As long as you have the tension stopped with the screwdriver or such, you could take a small piece of wire and make a small hook on the end of it, push from outer hole through inner hole, hook through the nylon cord, then just draw the wire out with your cord hooked. No nothing with trying to aim the cord through 2 holes. 😉
Or, you could use the same wire hook method, from the inner hole out and not even bother with taking your cord off the handle.
Easy peasy.
I try my own but the code stay outside
For anyone thinking of spending £7-8 for a new pull cord , toolstation sell a reel of it for £3.50
Thank yor
a mechanic tried to charge me 29 dollars to do this .. Ima try it tomorrow
We wish you the best of luck, hopefully it will save you a few coins too!
it took me 5 mins
Thank you thank you!!
