The starter-freewheel inner rings are accurately re-manufactured in special cast iron.
- They must be fitted carefully and without cocking them, to avoid any risk of cracking.
- They are fitted with small plugs that close off the top of the plunger housings. This arrangement allows the top of a housing to be opened up later to extract a broken spring — an operation that is extremely difficult with the original rings.
