NuB Spin Start Question

[IBinSaneDiego]

Before I try I just wanted to make sure... I'm still waiting for my battery for the spin starter, and thought I read somewhere I could use a drill with the
spin start bit? Any precautions?

Thanks.

You have to put a good amount of pressure to the flywheel to get it to turn. A drill might not be the best solution.
Make sure the wheel turns the engine in the correct direction.

That sucks... I guess I should had it shipped faster than ground.

LOL...
I said that it might not best solution.
But you Jon......
I think you could start an LST with a yo yo.

Well I have a LST2, but no Yo-YO.

I forgot to ask, which direction does the spin start spin?

Not just any Yo Yo...Duncan only.... LOL . It actually is really helpful as my Savage won't spin even if I set my drill to high speed. The LST is a champ for the spin start option.

As to which way... I just got it this weekened used so I have yet to fire this one up enough to remember. I will let you know later tonite if no one does.
