Check the user manual for the model number of your machine. It should look like this:" PPN-41ADT42C063
Here's a parts list for the most common version. I wouldn't order parts from it, but it should suffice for our purposes of identifying the leak and the fix.

If you look at the engine breakdown, oil is stored in the sump #76, and is used to lubricate the crankcase #XXXXX There is a gasket #75 between the two. This would be the most likely place for a leak. Also, look at the gasket #74 that goes between the cylinder #14 and the crankcase #XXXXX That's another potential area unless oil is migrating up into the rocker box cover. You might need to take off the cover #1 to be able to better see what's happening. . ref. link:

check to see that the kill button is not stuck in the contacting position, and if it is, try to get it unstuck. WD40 should help. if it's not, then disconnect the kill wires. now try starting it. if it still doesnt start, then the spark generator is bad. if this is the case, you'll need a new trimmer, or have a small engine mechanic replace the generator. i think its called the coil, not sure at the moment it's 4:00 am for me. anyways, whichever is cheaper is best choice.
SOURCE: I have a TB425cs that won't accelerate. It will
try adjusting the mixture screws out a bit if any otherwise it will need a diaphram kit

Hi the key is moulded as part of the flywheel on most machines these days which doesent take much to sheer off , By the sounds of it this may well be your problem.
SOURCE: Flywheel removal from TB425CS
YOU MAY HAVE TO USE A PULLER FOR THE FLYWHEEL I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING ON THE BREAKDOWN OF THE ENGINE THAT WOULD SHOW ANY THREADED HOLES FOR BOLTS TO REMOVE THE FLYWHEEL
Testimonial: "I think you're right about the puller for the flywheel. Thanks for the input."
