Abstract

A recoil starter for a backpack-type power working machine which is capable of easily and smoothly performed the starting operation even when the working machine is kept on the operator's back irrespective of differences in the operator's build. This recoil starter comprises a recoil grip which is attached to a distal end portion of a recoil rope extended out of the main body of the recoil starter, wherein the recoil grip is designed such that it can be anchored to a recoil grip-supporting member to be positioned close to an operator's waist and that it can be pulled out in front of the operator from the recoil grip-supporting member. The recoil grip-supporting member is made optionally alterable in position.
