Kavan starter dissassembly ?

[DaveL322 at comcast.net]

I believe what you need is a "spanner" wrench to loosen the nuts at the back end of the starter - they are the bolts that appear at the front of the body.  I made my own wrench from a piece of .125" aluminum.  A skinny set of needle nose pliers might also work.  You will have some fun putting it back together - the brushes are spring loaded against the commutator and need to be "pinned" open via the pinholes in plastic case/housing on the back end of the body.

Good luck,

Dave
