Yes. Most any hardware store can sell you a new cord. If you want to replace both the cord and the pull mechanism you may have to contact a dealer.

SOURCE: I broke the pull cord on my generator; how do I

you should remove the housing usually 4 bolts
dont remove anything else then look at the pully and remove the old chord tie a knot in the new chord and slot it into the hole on the pulley
you should then see a notch in the edge of the pulley this is for the chord to sit in while you turn the pully enough times to tension the recoil spring once tensioned enough so that it recoils all the chord slot the chord through the hole in the outer casing through the pull hande and knot it job done then refit

Anyone know anything about starting a generator when pull cord is broken from crankshaft? Devilbiss gb5000

Simplest solution is to repair or replace the pull cord. Small generators are designed to be simple. The pull cord assembly and spring are usually a single combined part. They are usually fairly easy to swap yourself.

Did you remember to "wind" the cord when you replaced it. They normally have a spring type of set up that you have to wind before you bolt everything together.

Hi . My pull cord has just snapped. I plan to buy another replacement cord. Do i just replace the cord or do i have to re tension anything ? Thanks

You have to wind the coiled spring thing before you connect the new rope to it so that it will rewind when you're cranking. It can be tricky and an extra pair of hands will come in handy. Remove the engine cover and turn it over to access the rewind mechanism.
