flywheel has rope notches at the top and a groove to place the knot from rope in but is it safe to attempt this? its supposed to work. im afraid that if i pull it and it starts the rope will spin and act like a weed whacker. should i hang on to it and if so will the rope release? or should i let go and will it spool up in groove? 1976 65hp mercury 650 outboard. the starter is going out and need to know how to correctly pull start it.
