Yellow band and rope are tangled - Bowflex Revolution Home Gym

if your rope is tangling, either you bought it with kinks in it or you're not taking proper care or the rope. if the tangles aren't too serious try swinging the rope hard(er) before or during your skipping routine, and when you're done using it hang it some kind or protrusion sticking outta your wall such as a nail. If the tangling is serious try boiling some water, pour it in a container and putting the rope inside the water to soak for about 15 mins then take it out and try to stretch the rope back to it's original condition. I wanna advise caution to this final suggestion because i've never tried this before and i don't you or anyone else to burn themselves or melt there rope, if you don't think the material of your rope will withstand the heat shorten the amount of time the rope's in the water or don't do it at all, if all else fails just buy another jump rope

A beaded rope is one made out of nylon with plastic beads along it. It can be used on any surface including concrete and it won't destroy the rope. I just started jump roping recently and got one of these because it doesn't get tangled. Also I can hear the beads hitting the ground which helps me keep my rhythm.

Hi, if you remove the recoil housing you have a good chance of freeing the rope if it's bound. Try pulling the rope to see where it's tangled and use a screw driver to pry it loose. Good luck.

Hi, sometimes the recoil rope gets a little tangled inside the housing if the cord is allowed to snap back after pulling. You need to undo the screws that hold the recoil on the motor and inspect the rope inside. If you cannot pull the rope freely while it is detached, then the problem lies with the recoil. In this case try to find the tangled cord and undo it. Test that the coil works before reinstalling it. It should work fine. If you pull the recoil while it's detached and it moves freely, then the problem lies with the engine itself. This would indicate a seizure and requires a complete tear-down and rebuild. Good luck.

I am assuming you tried to pull start and the rope is stuck out. Just try pulling the rope while it is out, but stand on the hedge trimmer. Sometimes when this happens to me, I just pull the rope a little extra and then hang onto it when it goes back in. Alot of times, I think the rope gets caught on the outside of the retraction pulley causing a tangle.

The spring won't fly out unless you undo the locks that hold the sprocket or spool in the housing.

You should be able to take the housing loose with about 4-6 torx head bolts/screws and get in there and untangle the rope. May not even have to take the housing off, just loosen it. Good Luck!

remove spark plug for inspection
1) silver or aluminum color
STOP the piston is seezed. TOO costly to repair

2) plug dark brown or black (pretty much normal)
remove recoil housing for tangled rope or broken rope rotor

may have damaged one of the two motors or disconnected motor plug.
