Abstract
The invention is directed to a handle for a pull-rope starter. The handle includes a T-shaped base body having an elongated part extending in the direction of the pull rope and a handle part extending transversely to the elongated part. The elongated part has a receptacle for accommodating an elastic expansion element which is connected at one end thereof to the pull rope. The expansion element is supported at its other end on the base body. The expansion element is as long as possible and has the longest possible expansion path. This is achieved in that the expansion element is supported at its upper end on the base body with the upper end facing away from the pull rope. In this way, the expansion element is stretched thereby providing a longer expansion path.
