Pull-start
Pull-start starters are one type of manual starter and are
started by pulling a rope wound around a reel on the flywheel
side of the engine.
Pull-start starters are generally used for small, air-cooled
gasoline engines.
Because gasoline engines do not have a very high compression
ratio (approx. 8-11), some are equipped with an automatic
decompressor to reduce the force necessary to pull the recoil
rope when starting, while others are equipped with uniquely
shaped cams.
