sten 84 #2 Posted May 7, 2014 Sorry can't help with your request but my WD is also missing the handle but it starts easily just by pulling the flywheel over TDC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #3 Posted May 7, 2014 What size crank is it and does it go clockwise or anti-clockwise, Ive got a handle in the shed, ill look for it tomorrow, don't know what it fits Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenmof2000 12 #4 Posted May 7, 2014 Brilliant m8,, thanks, I know its a 1.5" diameter shaft,, I believe that there are handles out there that you can change the pin on to accommodate direction of rotation!!!!!! Let me know if you find one m8, and any reimbursement that may be due!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #5 Posted May 8, 2014 Found the handle, has a reverseable thingy so can go both ways, handle is good as well 2 Kenmof2000 and Lauber1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenmof2000 12 #6 Posted May 9, 2014 ah your a star!!! could you poss recheck the hole diameter though for me,, the engine shaft is 1 1/2", the handle bore that you have put up looks to be smaller, any chance of confirming it for me!! Many Thanks!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
