So it seems that I'm slowly pulling this edger to pieces.

I'm now trying to either repair or replace the pull starter on the 430.

Seperating the motor from the shaft was some enough and without issue but I'm a little stuck on removing the plastic housing surrounding the starter assembly.

It seems that the clutch needs to be removed in order to allow the plastic housing to expose the starter but the edge of a ring spanner or socket is too wide to snugly fit the 2 clutch bolts.

Does anyone have a some fix for this or enlighten me on what I might be missing....?
