    Yeah, me too. I wanted to pull the recoil rope on my motor just for piece of mind. According to their info, it turns the proper direction. And if his rotation was backwards, swapping the mount(??) wouldn’t fix it anyway.
    Ebay pump was ordered yesterday. :dex: I’ll get that pressure gauge and hopefully do it all at one time. How weird is it I’m excited about a splitter upgrade? :loco: :crazy:

    Yeah I couldn't figure that one out either.
    If you think about where your recoil handle is located, and the direction it will make things turn when pulled...but I doublechecked myself after I ordered too :whistle:
    I get it! :thumbs:
