[SPAM] Re: Kavan starter dissassembly ?

[Paul Horan]

Dave,
    I have it re-assembled except for lubing the gears.
    What grease should I use on the planetary gears ?  The main shaft is steel but the planetary gears are nylon, epoxy or plastic.
Thanks,
Paul

  You can also make a 'spanner' out of a flat tip screwdriver you don't care much about -- a little dremel work to take out the center of the blade and you're there...

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.
