A method of attaching a stopper ring to an electric starter shaft having an operating head having an end stopper on a spline.

摘要

The method involves mounting a retaining ring (21) on a section of an axial shaft of a transmission device. The shaft is situated within an accessible mounting zone between a positioning groove and splines (15,16) having abutments. A launcher (10) with the transmission device is moved axially towards a resting position to drive the ring along a shaft section until the groove is arranged within a service zone. An Independent claim is also included for an electric starter for an automobile equipped with a launcher.
