The GripStart device allows you to start a pull-start engine without having to your hand strength. GripStart was designed and patented to solve this problem.
GripStart is a patented device (US Patent No. 8,888,152) that assists starting any pull-start engine. GripStart completely eliminates the need for hand dexterity or strength. The hardest part about starting a pull start engine is keeping your hand firmly grasped around the handle. An individual's arm has plenty of strength to pull the handle, but the grip strength in the hand is much more limited,
causing the handle to slip through the fingers and give you a painful reminder that there must be something better. GripStart is a safety device that can drastically minimize hand injuries as well as give people the peace of mind that they can still do things on their own. GripStart is made in the USA. GripStart is made up of a high quality, durable neoprene and nylon strap that secures around your wrist, and an ergonomic metal hook that sits directly in the center of your palm. The hook is designed to allow for use on virtually any size or style pull-start handle. When you grab the handle, the hook easily slides around the handle as if it's not even there. When you pull to start your engine, the hook grasps the handle tight and the only strength you need to start the engine is coming from your arm. Your hand no longer needs to hold the handle tight and pray it doesn't slip through your fingers because your grip gives out. Once your engine is running, your hand and the GripStart easily slip away from the handle. After using the GripStart for a little while you'll almost forget that it's even there.
