Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • Yamaha EF6600 generator with compatible MZ360 engine
  • Generators using Yamaha MZ360 engine and matching starter shroud
  • Lawn and outdoor-power equipment using the same MZ360 recoil pattern

Product Overview

A rope that will not retract, a starter that slips without turning the crankshaft, or broken pawls can leave a good engine impossible to start. A complete recoil assembly replaces the housing, spring, rope, handle, and engagement mechanism as one service unit.

MZ360 engines appear in generators and outdoor-power equipment with different shrouds. Measure the mounting-hole spacing and compare the pawl direction, starter-cup diameter, rope exit, and housing depth before ordering.

Compatibility Notice

Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.

Model, production date, serial number, connector, dimensions, installed options, and previous repairs can affect fitment. Compare the original component and reference information before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this fit every MZ360-powered machine? A: No. Equipment manufacturers can use different shrouds and recoil housings around the same engine family.

Q: Why does the new starter kick back? A: Incorrect ignition timing, valve adjustment, compression release, or engine flooding can cause kickback unrelated to the recoil.

Q: How do I confirm this is the correct part? A: Match MZ360 engine code, shroud, bolt count and spacing, housing diameter and depth, pawl rotation, starter cup, and rope outlet.

Q: Is this supplied by the original equipment manufacturer? A: No. This is a new aftermarket item. Brand, model, and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
