The length and diameter of pull cord and how to replace
Disconnect Power: Ensure the Yardstar Edgar is unplugged or disconnected from the power source to avoid any accidents.
Access the Cord Area: Remove any casing or cover that provides access to the cord on your Yardstar Edgar.
Remove the Old Cord: Locate the connection points of the old cord. This might involve opening up the casing and identifying where the cord is attached. Detach the old cord carefully.
Prepare the New Cord: If you are replacing the cord with a new one, ensure it is of the correct type and size. Trim and strip the ends of the new cord.
Connect the New Cord: Attach the new cord to the same points where the old cord was connected. This usually involves securing the wires properly, ensuring a snug fit.
Secure the Cord: Use any provided strain relief or securing mechanisms to keep the cord in place.

How much a person should get paid and hours for raking leaves?
Hi Joe
It depends who is doing it. Minimum wage for a kid or a little bit above for an adult cash job. Landscapers will want about $35 - $60 per hour per operative.
In my townhouse complex of 35 homes, the landscapers are charging $1,800 a week, usually a team of 4 and it takes an hour and a half. Prices in Canadian dollars.

Cub cadet chipper shredder starter coil is locked - will not pull
Recoil starter is locked?Remove spark plug to be sure engine hasn't hydrolocked with fuel and/or check crankcase oil level. If excessively high oil level then likely crankcase and cylinder is full of fuel from a stuck carburetor fuel inlet needle valve.If cylinder is clear of fuel/oil then remove recoil starter and see if recoil is functional and engine will rotate by hand.
Briggs & stratton 17.5 hp has fuel, spark and good air filter no start.
Likely either the engine is flooded or low compression.
A simple go no go compression test is remove spark plug and press a thumb or finger firmly over the plug hole and crank engine. It should forcibly push your finger and make a loud PFFfft sound. No or little sound equals insufficient compression.
If the push rod was not bent, there was no reason to replace. If it was bent then I question how you set proper valve lash with new pushrod as the typical cause for a bent rod is a displaced valve guide.
If compression is OK then likely it's simply flooding and you have a carb float/inlet needle issue. Crank engine, remove plug and if it's saturated with fuel then it's flooded and a flooded engine will not fire, even with starter fluid.
Comment for further assistance.

Countax c550 loss of transmission and cutting deck.
The owners manual shows 5 fuses. Remove and check each fuse for continuity.
Is the CHARGE indicator lit while engine is running?... regardless check battery voltage with a DMM. With engine running at medium throttle battery voltage should be >13.0VDC. Less than 12.6VDC implies charging system and/or battery failure. Less than 12.0VDC and electronics may not work properly.
The wiring diagram is included in the owners manual available no fee at the following URL.
