ElastoStart

Easier starting

ElastoStart
This special starter grip promotes an even starting procedure without any jerky movements, making it easier to start the machine. The integral damper absorbs the stresses created by pulling on the starter rope.

Due to compression pressure, jerky stresses occur when starting internal combustion engines that put strain on the muscles and joints. The damping element in the ElastoStart special starter grip alternately absorbs and releases force according to the compression pattern. The result is smooth, even starting.
