I have an older Strikemaster Mag 8.25' chipper auger. Yesterday while on the ice we were drilling some holes and she was working great. I shut it off and later on decided to drill a few more holes. Well when I went to start it up I pulled the cord and it made a grinding sound and the cord now doesn't retract back into the auger. I used a small scredriver to rewind it but after another pull it makes a grinding noise and so I stopped.
Has anyone had this happen to them and is it just a recoil replacement? If so is it that hard to do? I checked out a few other posts and some videos I saw on youtube but wasn't sure if this would be a simple job to do.

Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.

Hi everyone,

Has anyone had this happen to them and is it just a recoil replacement? If so is it that hard to do? I checked out a few other posts and some videos I saw on youtube but wasn't sure if this would be a simple job to do.
Thanks!
