Hitachi 6684938 THB-260PFRB24E Starter Assembly

This was delivered on time and took under 10min and a phillips screwdriver to install.

Cheap String

5 minute install, back up and running. Perfect fit for post 2014 Hitachi leaf blower.

This starter assembly is a direct replacement for post-2014 Hitachi RB24EAP blowers, with the alternative part # being 6600406. To check what year your RB24EAP was manufactured in, look at the serial number on the outside of the assembly. The 3rd digit is the year of manufacturing. So if your serial is P264023, the 6 is the year, so 2016. If your blower was made after August 2014, this is the correct assembly for your blower. If it was made before August 2014, then you need to look for part #6696572.

Fit and function as orginal

Finally found the recoil starter for my gas blower, Fit perfectly, is easy to replace, and at a good price. Just needed better pictures of both sides of the part.

My pull string broke on my RB24EAP Hitachi blower. This replacement was a perfect fit. Please do your research. This part will only fit blowers built after 2014. I couldnt be happier.

product works great

Spent an hour trying to re-string the old spool while shouting every expletive in my arsenal before breaking down and buying this. Easy to install and it worked. Buy it.

Annoying you have to replace the unit to fix a broken rope, but this works fine.
