recoil start not working on mountfield multiclip HP501 mower?

how does the recoil start system go back together?? friend has above machine stripped down, but cant get recoil to work. the start rope simply unwinds without recoiling. any diagrams / explanations would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

thats the joy of friends with no idea basicaly under the recoil pully ( what your rope goes around ) you will find a spring one end connects to pully the other connects to the housing would say either its not connected or it broken.
can be a little tricky if you have not done one before
easy answer is to take the recoil complete to local repair centre should be a cheap fix if it not needing parts i would charge no more than £10
