Husky 55 Rewind (Very Hard To Pull)

[BIGBUCK]

Hi Everyone.
I have a Husky 55, that every once in a while you can hardly budge the rewind when you pull the cord.
Its not a real big deal, but I was wondering if it was normal or if there was anything I could do.
Thanks for your help

Take it off and look it over. Something could be loose or worn too much. It should be easy to figure out once it's off.

It's not normal, could be as easy as a new cord. Steve

Yes, I agree. If the cord stretches or wears thin, it can bind on itself as it winds around the pulley. Had a string trimmer that puzzled me until I realized this was the problem.
