Greater than one weekThis was not the part I needed but by combining it with Hitachi 6696471 I was able to fix the blower.

Greater than one weekThe Q&A and reviews on this product were helpful in determining this was the correct model for my blower. Check them out before ordering as they changed the design post 2014 I believe. My string broke after 5+ years so I tried replacement my with a new one from Lowe’s (MTD). That string was thicker and during the install the coiled spring came out resulting in 3 hours of frustration and YouTube research getting it back in. I finally did but the tension was not the same so had to shorten the string which lead to a shorter pull. The first yank broke the string and left a thread. I repaired that and it worked, but the pull was still too short. I found this part on amazon and had it installed in literally 5 minutes and it is performing as when new. The part is held on my 4 screws and accessible after removing the screws which hold the two halves of the blower together and one that holds the tank to one of the halves. Save yourself the trouble and spend another $15 and get this part.

Greater than one weekThe item did not match the starter for the Hitachi. This was a generic assembly and was not compatible.
