The Kohler 1709811-S Engine Electric Starter-Bendix Drive engages the engine flywheel for stable starting. Wear, damaged gears, or electrical issues can prevent smooth starter engagement and consistent engine cranking.

\n

Common Issues:

\n

• Starter motor spins without cranking the engine.

\n

• Bendix drive fails to engage the flywheel.

\n

• Grinding noise during engine starting.

\n

• Starter gear sticks after engine starts.

\n

• Slow starter engagement.

\n

Spins Without Cranking the Engine

\n

Quick Check: Inspect the Bendix drive gear for wear or damaged teeth.

\n

Fix Suggestion: Check the drive gear movement, clean away debris, and verify the gear extends smoothly.

\n

Prevention Tip: Keep the starter area clean to prevent debris buildup.

\n

Bendix Drive Fails to Engage the Flywheel

\n

Quick Check: Observe whether the starter gear moves toward the flywheel during cranking.

\n

Fix Suggestion: Inspect the drive mechanism for binding and ensure all mounting hardware is secure.

\n

Prevention Tip: Periodically inspect the starter assembly for signs of wear.

\n

Grinding Noise During Engine Starting

\n

Quick Check: Examine the starter gear and flywheel teeth for visible damage.

\n

Fix Suggestion: Correct gear alignment and inspect both gears for excessive wear.

\n

Prevention Tip: Avoid repeated extended cranking attempts.

\n

Starter Gear Sticks After Engine Starts

\n

Quick Check: Verify the Bendix gear retracts freely after starting.

\n

Fix Suggestion: Clean the drive assembly and inspect it for dirt or mechanical interference.

\n

\n

Customer Experience: My mower started much more smoothly after cleaning the Bendix drive and checking the gear alignment.

Description

\n
\n The Kohler 1709811-S Engine electric starter motor with a Bendix drive that is used to start engines used in outdoor power goods. When the ignition key is turned the starter motor rotates and the Bendix drive mechanism mashes the starter pinion gear with the flywheel of the engine. This enables the starter to turn the engine until it starts to run on its power source. Once the engine is running, the Bendix drive releases the pinion gear and avoids over-spinning and damaging the starter.\n
