Rewind spring for MS250/MS310 Stihl is a mechanical component used in the recoil starter assembly of these chainsaw models to rewind the starter cord after pulling

Rewind spring for MS250/MS310 Stihl is a critical component in the recoil starter assembly of these Stihl chainsaw models. This spring is responsible for rewinding the starter rope automatically after you pull it to start the engine. Ensuring the rewind spring functions properly is essential for smooth and reliable engine starting.

This unit is designed specifically for the MS250 and MS310 chainsaws, so when replacing, compare the spring’s length, coil tension, and mounting points with your existing part to ensure compatibility. The rewind spring operates under constant tension, and any damage or loss of elasticity will result in starting difficulties or the rope not retracting fully. Buyers should verify the exact chainsaw model and starter assembly before purchasing to avoid mismatches.

When inspecting or replacing the rewind spring, check related starter components like the pulley and rope for wear, as these parts work together in the starting mechanism. Using this correct rewind spring helps maintain the original operation of the recoil starter, which is an integral part of your chainsaw’s ignition system.
