ABSTRACT:
A starter assembly comprising a housing, a pulley rotatably mounted in the housing and having pivotally mounted therein pawls for engagement with a coupling that turns an engine. A brake assembly portion of the starter includes a molded plastics retainer including a base portion, legs extending from the base portion, and protrusions extending from the base portion and engageable by the pulley pawls to cause the retainer to rotate with the pulley. The legs of the retainer are disposed in a central opening of a pulley center shaft and are biased radially outwardly to engage the interior of the center shaft to restrain rotation of the retainer. The assembly further includes turning means by which an operator causes rotation of the pulley.
